Improves internal consulting operations and productivity.
Scrape & Import Products to Shopify from Any Site (with Variants & Images)-(Optimized for shoes) This advanced AlekSystem template automates e-commerce operations by scraping product data (including variants and images) from any URL and creating fully detailed products in your Shopify store. This workflow is essential for dropshippers, e-commerce store owners, and anyone looking to quickly import product catalogs from specific websites into their Shopify store. Self-Hosted Only This Workflow uses a community contribution and is designed and tested for self-hosted AlekSystem instances only. How it works The workflow reads a list of product page URLs from a Google Sheet. Your sheet, with its columns for Product Name and Product Link, acts as a database for your workflow. The Loop Over Items node processes products one URL at a time. Two BrowserAct nodes run sequentially to scrape all product details, including the Name, price, description, sizes, and image links. A custom Code node transforms the raw scraped data (where fields like sizes might be a single string) into a structured JSON format with clean lists for sizes and images. The Shopify node creates the base product entry using the main details. The workflow then uses a series of nodes (Set Option and Add Option via HTTP Request) to dynamically add product options (e.g., "Shoe Size") to the new product. The workflow intelligently uses HTTP Request nodes to perform two crucial bulk tasks: Create a unique variant for each available size, including a custom SKU. Upload all associated product images from their external URLs to the product. A final Slack notification confirms the batch has been processed.
