1.1 Workflow description

Title
Track regional sentiment from social media with Bright Data & OpenAI
Workflow name
Track regional sentiment from social media with Bright Data & OpenAI

This workflow contains community nodes that are only compatible with the self-hosted version of n8n.

This workflow automatically tracks regional sentiment across social media and news outlets, giving you a real-time pulse on how people in a specific area feel about your brand or topic.

Overview

The automation queries Twitter, Reddit, and major news APIs filtered by geolocation. Bright Data handles location-specific scraping where APIs are limited. OpenAI performs sentiment and keyword extraction, aggregating scores into a daily report stored in Google Sheets and visualized in Data Studio.

Tools Used

  • n8n – Coordinates all steps
  • Bright Data – Collects geo-targeted data beyond API limits
  • OpenAI – Runs sentiment analysis and topic modeling
  • Google Sheets – Houses cleaned sentiment metrics
  • Data Studio / Looker – Optional dashboard for visualization

How to Install

  1. Import the Workflow into n8n with the provided .json.
  2. Configure Bright Data credentials.
  3. Set Up OpenAI API key.
  4. Connect Google Sheets and create a destination spreadsheet.
  5. Customize Regions & Keywords in the Start node.

Use Cases

  • Brand Monitoring: Measure public opinion in target markets.
  • Political Campaigns: Gauge voter sentiment by district.
  • Market Entry: Understand regional attitudes before launching.
  • Crisis Management: Detect negative spikes early.
