This n8n workflow automates the process of collecting and delivering the "Deals of the Day" from MediaMarkt, specifically tailored to user preferences, and sends those deals via email.
This workflow is useful for automating product deal recommendations based on user input and sending personalized emails with the best deals available.
Workflow Overview:
- User Interaction via Form:
- The user submits a form where they can select categories (such as appliances, cell phones, etc.) and provide their email address. This triggers the workflow to gather personalized deals based on their input.
- Data Extraction:
- Once the form is submitted, the workflow calls Bright Data community node to scrape data from the MediaMarkt website (
https://www.mediamarkt.es/es/campaign/campanas-y-ofertas
) using a proxy service. The data is retrieved in JSON format.
- Once the form is submitted, the workflow calls Bright Data community node to scrape data from the MediaMarkt website (
- HTML Content Extraction:
- The raw HTML content from the website is extracted, focusing on the title and body, which are key to processing the content for recommendation.
- Recommendation Generation using OpenAI:
- The extracted data is processed through OpenAI (GPT-4o-mini) to generate a list of recommended deals. This involves categorizing deals based on the user-selected categories, and filtering or translating content if necessary. The deal list includes properties like name, description, price, and a link.
- Data Structuring:
- The generated list of deals is split into individual deal items using SplitOut.
- Document Creation:
- Using Document Generator community node, an HTML template is populated with the recommended deals and structured into a user-friendly format.
- Email Delivery:
- The document containing the recommended deals is sent to the user's email via SMTP email send with a personalized message that includes the list of deals.
