Synchronizing WooCommerce inventory and creating products with Google Gemini AI and BrowserAct

Synchronize WooCommerce Inventory & Create Products with Gemini AI & BrowserAct

This sophisticated n8n template automates WooCommerce inventory management by scraping supplier data, updating existing products, and intelligently creating new ones with AI-formatted descriptions.

This workflow is essential for e-commerce operators, dropshippers, and inventory managers who need to ensure their product pricing and stock levels are synchronized with multiple third-party suppliers, minimizing overselling and maximizing profit.

Self-Hosted Only

This Workflow uses a community contribution and is designed and tested for self-hosted n8n instances only.

How it works

• The workflow is typically run by a Schedule Trigger (though a Manual Trigger is also shown) to check stock automatically.
• It reads a list of suppliers and their inventory page URLs from a central Google Sheet.
• The workflow loops through each supplier:
  • A BrowserAct node scrapes the current stock and price data from the supplier's inventory page.
  • A Code node parses this bulk data into individual product items.
  • It then loops through each individual product found.
• The workflow checks WooCommerce to see if the product already exists based on its name.
  • If the product exists: It proceeds to update the existing product's price and stock quantity.
  • If the product DOES NOT exist:
    • An If node checks if the missing product's category matches a predefined type (optional filtering).
    • If it passes the filter, a second BrowserAct workflow scrapes detailed product attributes from a dedicated product page (e.g., DigiKey).
    • An AI Agent (Gemini) transforms these attributes into a specific, styled HTML table for the product description.
    • Finally, the product is created in WooCommerce with all scraped details and the AI-generated description.
• Error Handling: Multiple Slack nodes are configured to alert your team immediately if any scraping task fails or if the product update/creation process encounters an issue.

Note: This workflow does not support image uploads for new products. To enable this functionality, you must modify both the n8n and BrowserAct workflows.
