Schedule Trigger Automate

This workflow is ideal for:

• Developers looking to automate web scraping tasks without manual intervention.
• Data Analysts who need to gather data from various websites on a regular schedule.
• Business Owners who require consistent data updates for market research or competitive analysis.
• Marketers who want to monitor competitors' activities and gather insights from their websites.
• Students and Researchers who need to collect data for projects or studies efficiently.

This workflow addresses the challenge of automating web scraping tasks by:

• Providing a scheduled trigger that runs the scraping process at regular intervals, ensuring that data is always up-to-date.
• Integrating with the Scrappey API to fetch website data without the risk of being blocked by anti-bot technologies.
• Allowing users to easily set up and modify scraping requests with minimal technical knowledge.

The workflow consists of the following steps:

1. Schedule Trigger: This node initiates the workflow based on a defined schedule, allowing for automated execution at specified intervals.
2. Test Data: This node sets up the necessary parameters, including a test name and URL, which will be used during the scraping process.
3. Sticky Note: This node provides contextual information about the workflow and serves as a reminder for users to replace necessary credentials and adjust settings before production use.
4. Scrape website with Scrappey: This HTTP request node sends a POST request to the Scrappey API, including the test URL and API key, to retrieve the desired data from the specified website.
5. The workflow connects these nodes to ensure a seamless flow from scheduling to data retrieval.
