Template description

Based on your use case, you might want to trigger a workflow if new data gets added to your database. This workflow allows you to send a message to Mattermost when new data gets added in Google Sheets.

The Interval node triggers the workflow every 45 minutes. You can modify the timing based on your use case. You can even use the Cron node to trigger the workflow.

If you wish to fetch new Tweets from Twitter, replace the Google Sheet node with the respective node. Update the Function node accordingly.

HTTP Request node
Item Lists node

Pulling data from services that n8n doesn’t have a pre-built integration for

You still can use the app in a workflow even if we don’t have a node for that or the existing operation for that. With the HTTP Request node, it is possible to call any API point and use the incoming data in your workflow Main use cases: Connect with apps and services that n8n doesn’t have integration with Web scraping How it works This workflow can be divided into three branches, each serving a distinct purpose: 1.Splitting into Items (HTTP Request - Get Mock Albums): The workflow initiates with a manual trigger (On clicking 'execute'). It performs an HTTP request to retrieve mock albums data from "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/albums." The obtained data is split into items using the Item Lists node, facilitating easier management. 2.Data Scraping (HTTP Request - Get Wikipedia Page and HTML Extract): Another branch of the workflow involves fetching a random Wikipedia page using an HTTP request to "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random." The HTML Extract node extracts the article title from the fetched Wikipedia page. 3.Handling Pagination (The final branch deals with handling pagination for a GitHub API request): It sends an HTTP request to "https://api.github.com/users/that-one-tom/starred," with parameters like the page number and items per page dynamically set by the Set node. The workflow uses conditions (If - Are we finished?) to check if there are more pages to retrieve and increments the page number accordingly (Set - Increment Page). This process repeats until all pages are fetched, allowing for comprehensive data retrieval.
