Context
Hey! I’m Samir , a Supply Chain Engineer and Data Scientist from Paris, and the founder of LogiGreen Consulting.
We use AI, automation, and data to support sustainable and data-driven operations across all types of organizations.
This workflow is part of our networking strategy (as a business) to track official EU events that may relate to topics we cover.
> Want to stay ahead of critical EU meetings and events without checking the website every day?
This n8n workflow automatically scrapes the EU’s official event portal and logs the latest entries with clean metadata including date, location, category, and link.
📬 For collaborations, feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn
Who is this template for?
This workflow is useful for:
- Policy & public affairs teams following institutional activities
- Sustainability teams watching for relevant climate-related summits
- NGOs and researchers interested in event calendars
- Data teams building dashboards on public event trends
What does it do?
This n8n workflow:
- 🌐 Scrapes the EU events portal for new meetings and conferences
- 📅 Extracts event metadata (title, date, location, type, and link)
- 🔁 Handles pagination across multiple pages
- 🚫 Checks for duplicates already stored
- 📊 Saves new records into a connected Google Sheet
How it works
- Triggered daily via cron
- HTTP node loads the event listing HTML
- Extract HTML blocks for each event article
- Parse event name, link, type, location, and full date
- Concatenate and clean dates for easy tracking
- Store non-duplicate entries in Google Sheets
The workflow uses static data to track pagination and ensure only new events are stored, making it ideal for building up a clean dataset over time.
What do I need to get started?
You’ll need:
- A Google Sheet connected to your n8n instance
- No code or AI tools needed — just n8n and this template
Follow the Guide!
Sticky notes are included directly inside the workflow to guide you step-by-step through setup and customisation.
Notes
- This is ideal for analysts and consultants who want clean, structured data from the EU portal
- You can add filtering, email alerts, or AI classifiers later
This workflow was built using n8n version 1.93.0

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch
-
1. Download the workflow JSON
Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/4561/4561.json as the source template for this automation.
-
2. Import the template into n8n
Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.
-
3. Configure credentials and variables
Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.
-
4. Test with sample data
Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.
-
5. Activate and monitor
Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.
5. General Notes & Resources
Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.
Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
