Template notes
This workflow helps you stay updated with daily launches on Product Hunt. It automatically fetches product details (name, tagline, description, and website), checks if the website redirects to another URL, and logs the final information into a Google Sheet.
Perfect for indie hackers, product managers, content curators, and anyone tracking daily launches.
How It Works
1. Schedule Trigger – Runs the workflow daily. 2. Set Date – Captures today’s date in ISO format for filtering Product Hunt posts. 3. HTTP Request (Product Hunt API) – Retrieves Product Hunt posts for the day using GraphQL. 4. Extract Product Info (Code Node) – Parses the response to pull key details: - Name - Tagline - Description - Website URL 5. HTTP Request (URL Check) – Follows each website URL to detect if it redirects. 6. Merge Data – Combines product info with the final destination URL. 7. Google Sheets Node – Appends all processed product info to your sheet.
