Overview
Unlock Automated Deal Hunting with this Workflow
This n8n workflow acts as a dedicated data scraping agent that monitors Airbnb for you. Set your travel destination, dates, and number of guests, and it will run on a schedule to fetch the latest listings. It uses Bright Data to ensure reliable access without getting blocked, intelligently parses the website data to pull out clean information, and saves it all to a Google Sheet. It's the perfect tool for building a historical price database to spot trends and find the best deals over time.
Key Features & Benefits
- Scheduled Automation: Runs automatically on a daily schedule, so you never miss a price drop.
