Track Amazon price-drop alerts with Scavio and Google Sheets

How it works

Track any number of Amazon products from a Google Sheet. Every 1,2,3... hours, the workflow:

  • Reads your watchlist sheet (product_url, price_threshold, last_alerted_price)
  • Loops through each product with a 2s throttle (Scavio API rate limit for trail users)
  • Extracts the ASIN and country domain from any Amazon URL format (/dp/, /gp/product/, mobile, shortlinks)
  • Calls Scavio: Amazon Get Product for the live price
  • Decides whether to email: only when current price first hits or further drops below your threshold (edge-triggered, no spam at flat prices)
  • Sends a Gmail alert and writes the alerted price back to the sheet so the same level isn't re-alerted

Set up steps

Setup takes about 10 minutes.

  1. Install the Scavio community node: in n8n, go to Settings -> Community Nodes -> Install and enter n8n-nodes-scavio.
  2. Get a free Scavio API key at https://dashboard.scavio.dev (500 credits/month, 1 credit per Amazon Get Product call).
  3. Create a Google Sheet with one tab. Add three columns: product_url, price_threshold, last_alerted_price. Add one row per product you want to track (paste the Amazon URL and your max price; leave last_alerted_price blank).
  4. Import this template, then attach three credentials: Scavio API, Google Sheets OAuth2, and Gmail OAuth2.
  5. Open the Get Watchlist and Update last_alerted_price nodes and pick your spreadsheet/tab.
  6. Open the Send Gmail node and set sendTo to your alert recipient.
  7. Activate.

To re-arm an alert (e.g. you checked but didn't buy), clear the last_alerted_price cell. To stop tracking, delete the row.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/15380/15380.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.
