Runs on a schedule

Who is this template for? You are in the bad habit of always checking your feed to see if there are new videos? This workflow will help you get rid of this habit by delivering an email notification for each new video posted from the channels you are subscribed to. No need to check your feed again: no email = no new video. Example email How it works Every hour (by default), we: Fetch all your YouTube subscriptions from the YouTube Data v3 API. Get a list of the latest videos of each channel through RSS (we don't use YouTube's API for this step as it would put us over the daily quota). Send you a simple yet beautiful email for each new video that was published since the last run of the workflow. To go to the video, simply click on the thumbnail. Caveats Because of the way this workflow is implemented, if your n8n instance stops, you will not get emails for the videos you missed when your instance is back online. The situation could be improved if n8n gave us an easy way to access the last successful execution's timestamp. Set up instructions Complete the Set up credentials step when you first open the workflow. You'll need YouTube OAuth2 API and SMTP credentials.

Monitor website changes with PolyDoc screenshots and email alerts

Quick Overview This workflow checks a website URL every 6 hours, detects content changes by hashing the normalized HTML, and when a change is found it uses PolyDoc to capture a full-page screenshot and emails the PNG as an attachment. How it works Runs every 6 hours on a schedule. Sets the target URL to monitor and fetches the page HTML with an HTTP request. Normalizes the HTML (removing scripts/styles/comments), hashes it, and compares it with the previous run stored in workflow static data. If the hash changed, PolyDoc captures a full-page PNG screenshot of the URL. Sends an email with the screenshot attached and the monitored URL in the subject and body. Setup Update the monitored website URL in the Settings step. Add your PolyDoc API credentials to the PolyDoc screenshot step. Configure an SMTP email credential and set the to/from email addresses in the email step.
