Monitor keywords with Google Sheets and Slack
Runs on a schedule across Google Sheets, Slack and Gmail, classifies each item with a language model, then branches on the check before anything is written. Built for cross-posting, around a "Stamp & Shape Post" step, in 23 documented nodes.
Monitor keywords with Google Sheets and Gmail without manual work. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Social Listening' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 23 nodes across Google Sheets, Slack, Gmail. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. Your team sees the right data at the right time.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Google Sheets and Slack in step for cross-posting, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓Safe to re-run: records already in Google Sheets or Slack are skipped, across all 23 nodes of this cross-posting build
- ✓A failed Google Sheets or Slack call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 23 nodes in this cross-posting build
- ✓Branches rejoin before Google Sheets, so a cross-posting run reports once rather than 23 times
- ✓Fans the same result out to Gmail in the same run, for cross-posting
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Google Sheets and Slack aligned by hand for cross-posting
- →Cross-posting work where "Stamp & Shape Post" is still a manual step before Google Sheets
- →Cross-posting work that only reaches Google Sheets on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

What you'll learn
Production levelProduction-grade: idempotency, dead-letter handling, and reconciliation included.
- •Polling a feed and deduplicating across executions
- •Cross-posting to several channels in parallel
- •Moving data between Google Sheets, Gmail and Slack in a single run
Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.
Common questions
What exactly do I get?
The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.
How do I import it into n8n?
In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.
Do I need anything else for it to work?
You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Google Sheets, Slack, Gmail). No coding is required.
What if it doesn't work for me?
If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.
Can I modify or resell it?
You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
