1.1 Workflow description

Title

Workflow name
Send daily 4K Bluray preorder updates from Blu-ray.com to Discord

This is a simple webpage scraper that specifically grabs today's newest 4K Bluray Preorders as listed on the Blu-ray.com website. This is a scheduled workflow that can run every day and will post a formatted summary message of links to a Discord channel of your choice.

Minimal setup required:

  • Just create a webhook for the channel you want posted to in Discord and provide that in the final step.
  • The timezone format step is set to East Coast (NYC) by default, feel free to change.
  • No API keys or any special configuration needed (beyond your Discord webhook)
  • Feel free to customize the formatting of the message that gets posted 👍

How it works:

  • First format todays date to match the formatting used on the website
  • Grab the HTML for the preorders page at www.blu-ray.com
  • Filter only the hyperlinks for each Bluray on the page
  • Then further filter only those with an html header matching today's date
  • Format how you want the message to be sent to your Discord channel (in this case a simple list of Hyperlinks for each Title)
  • Send to Discord!

Disclaimer:

  • This should be only for personal use.
  • The links go back to the blu-ray.com website, which is a good thing!
  • Don't abuse this by slamming their site with some crazy level of automation frequency.
  • Support the blu-ray.com website by using their affiliate links whenever you do want to preorder a title ;)
  • This is one of my first shared templates, so it may not be super optimal or perfect but it works for my needs and hopefully you'll find some use out of it!
  • Discord currently has a 2000 character limit on webhook messages. Some of the messages may get truncated as a result.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/6830/6830.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 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. 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.
