Example Use Cases#
Content Change Detection and Alerting: Use the Automatic Data Extraction API to monitor changes in content on target websites. When a change is detected, like a price drop or a new article publication, trigger a Pipedream workflow to send an alert via email (using the SendGrid app) or post a notification in a Slack channel.
Competitor Price Tracking: Set up a scheduled Pipedream workflow to extract pricing data from competitor websites daily. Process and compare this data within Pipedream, then update a Google Sheets document with the latest pricing information for easy analysis and decision-making.
Lead Generation from Online Directories: Utilize the API to pull contact information from online business directories. With Pipedream, parse the extracted data for quality leads and enrich it using a CRM app like Salesforce. Automatically create new leads in Salesforce with the enriched data for your sales team to act upon.
