Track keyword rankings: Slack
Runs on a schedule across Slack and Google Sheets, branches on the check before anything is written, then drops anything it has already handled. Built for backlinks, around a "Probe Endpoint A" step, in 17 documented nodes.
Track keyword rankings with HTTP / REST API and Google Sheets without manual work. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'SEO Audit' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 17 nodes across Slack, HTTP / REST API, Google Sheets. 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. What used to take a morning now runs on its own.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Slack and Google Sheets in step for backlinks, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓Safe to re-run: records already in Slack or Google Sheets are skipped, across all 17 nodes of this backlinks build
- ✓A failed Slack or Google Sheets call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 17 nodes in this backlinks build
- ✓Branches rejoin before Slack, so a backlinks run reports once rather than 17 times
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 17 nodes for backlinks before wiring Slack
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Slack and Google Sheets aligned by hand for backlinks
- →Backlinks work where "Probe Endpoint A" is still a manual step before Slack
- →Backlinks work that only reaches Slack on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

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 (Slack, HTTP / REST API, Google Sheets). 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.
