Automate Google Shopping price monitoring and email alerts

This automation solution allows users to track product prices on Google Shopping using Bright Data's scraping tools, and receive automated email alerts when prices change or meet specific thresholds.

It retrieves product details like name, price, ratings, and reviews from Google Shopping, stores the data in a Google Sheet, and compares current prices against historical records to identify and notify users of price drops. The workflow is scheduled to run daily, handling multiple products in batches while applying rate limiting to avoid disruptions. This enables e-commerce businesses, deal hunters, and market researchers to stay up-to-date on pricing trends and take advantage of price-drop opportunities.
