SEO Competitor Analysis & Data Logging with Semrush API and Google Sheets

This n8n workflow automates the process of performing SEO competitor analysis using the Semrush API and logging the results into a Google Sheet. It's designed to be triggered manually via an n8n form, allowing users to input competitor domains and keywords directly.

What it does

  1. Triggers on Form Submission: The workflow starts when a user submits data through a simple n8n form.
  2. Processes Input Data: It takes the submitted competitor domains and keywords from the form.
  3. Performs Semrush API Requests: For each competitor domain and keyword, it makes requests to the Semrush API to gather relevant SEO metrics (e.g., keyword rankings, traffic, backlinks).
  4. Transforms Data: The raw data from Semrush is processed and transformed into a structured format suitable for logging.
  5. Logs Data to Google Sheets: The processed SEO metrics are then appended as new rows to a specified Google Sheet, creating a historical record of competitor performance.

Prerequisites/Requirements

  • n8n Instance: A running n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted).
  • Semrush API Key: An active Semrush account with API access. You will need to configure a credential for the HTTP Request node.
  • Google Account: A Google account with access to Google Sheets. You will need to configure a Google Sheets credential in n8n.
  • Google Sheet: A pre-existing Google Sheet where the competitor analysis data will be logged. Ensure the sheet has appropriate headers for the data you intend to store.

Setup/Usage

  1. Import the Workflow: Import the provided JSON into your n8n instance.
  2. Configure Credentials:
    • Semrush API: For the "HTTP Request" node, create or select an existing HTTP Request credential. You will likely need to add your Semrush API key as a header or query parameter, depending on Semrush's API documentation.
    • Google Sheets: For the "Google Sheets" node, create or select an existing Google Sheets OAuth2 credential to allow n8n to write to your spreadsheets.
  3. Configure Google Sheets Node:
    • Specify the Spreadsheet ID of your target Google Sheet.
    • Specify the Sheet Name within that spreadsheet where data should be appended.
    • Ensure the "Operation" is set to "Append Row".
  4. Configure n8n Form Trigger:
    • The "On form submission" node is pre-configured to accept inputs. You may customize the form fields (e.g., competitorDomains, keywords) to match your exact needs.
  5. Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow.
  6. Trigger the Workflow:
    • Open the n8n form URL provided by the "On form submission" node.
    • Enter the competitor domains and keywords you wish to analyze.
    • Submit the form. The workflow will execute, fetch data from Semrush, and log it to your Google Sheet.

Two-way property repair management system with Google Sheets & Drive

This workflow automates the repair request process between tenants and building managers, keeping all updates organized in a single spreadsheet. It is composed of two coordinated workflows, as two separate triggers are required — one for new repair submissions and another for repair updates. A Unique Unit ID that corresponds to individual units is attributed to each request, and timestamps are used to coordinate repair updates with specific requests. General use cases include: Property managers who manage multiple buildings or units. Building owners looking to centralize tenant repair communication. Automation builders who want to learn multi-trigger workflow design in n8n. --- ⚙️ How It Works Workflow 1 – New Repair Requests Behind the Scenes: A tenant fills out a Google Form (“Repair Request Form”), which automatically adds a new row to a linked Google Sheet. Steps: Trigger: Google Sheets rowAdded – runs when a new form entry appears. Extract & Format: Collects all relevant form data (address, unit, urgency, contacts). Generate Unit ID: Creates a standardized identifier (e.g., BUILDING-UNIT) for tracking. Email Notification: Sends the building manager a formatted email summarizing the repair details and including a link to a Repair Update Form (which activates Workflow 2). --- Workflow 2 – Repair Updates Behind the Scenes:\ Triggered when the building manager submits a follow-up form (“Repair Update Form”). Steps: Lookup by UUID: Uses the Unit ID from Workflow 1 to find the existing row in the Google Sheet. Conditional Logic: If photos are uploaded: Saves each image to a Google Drive folder, renames files consistently, and adds URLs to the sheet. If no photos: Skips the upload step and processes textual updates only. Merge & Update: Combines new data with existing repair info in the same spreadsheet row — enabling a full repair history in one place. --- 🧩 Requirements Google Account (for Forms, Sheets, and Drive) Gmail/email node connected for sending notifications n8n credentials configured for Google API access --- ⚡ Setup Instructions (see more detail in workflow) Import both workflows into n8n, then copy one into a second workflow. Change manual trigger in workflow 2 to a n8n Form node. Connect Google credentials to all nodes. Update spreadsheet and folder IDs in the corresponding nodes. Customize email text, sender name, and form links for your organization. Test each workflow with a sample repair request and a repair update submission. --- 🛠️ Customization Ideas Add Slack or Telegram notifications for urgent repairs. Auto-create folders per building or unit for photo uploads. Generate monthly repair summaries using Google Sheets triggers. Add an AI node to create summaries/extract relevant repair data from repair request that include long submissions.
