Amazon deals by category and discount in n8n
Pull Amazon's Today's Deals grid across 23 marketplaces, with deal price, list price, savings amount/percent, deal type, brand, and department for each product. Filter by category, brand, price range, and discount range.
What this workflow does
Import it and n8n runs the Amazon Deals Grid Tracker by Category & Discount Actor on Apify every day at 08:00 with the starter input below. Each row comes back with asin, title, deal price, savings percent and 4 more; repeats with the same asin are dropped. A Google Sheets append is included and stays off until you add your sheet. The only credential it needs is your Apify API token.

This workflow is the one the video points to: the number in each video opens this page.
Input
The Configure input node holds the starter input. Change it there; every setting the Actor accepts is listed below.
{
"maxItems": 25,
"marketplace": "amazon.com"
}| Setting | Type | Required | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| marketplace | string | Yes | amazon.com | Which Amazon domain's Today's Deals page to scrape. 23 choices. |
| categories | array | No | – | Amazon departments to scan. Common names: Electronics, Home & Kitchen, Kitchen, Beauty & Personal Care, Clothing Shoes & Jewelry, Toys & Games, Sports & Outdoors, Books, Pet… |
| collection | string | No | – | Restrict to one of Amazon's curated deal collections. The collection names differ by marketplace; unsupported collections return a clear status record instead of unfiltered data. 10 choices. |
| brand | string | No | – | Case-insensitive brand name substring (e.g. Anker, Samsung). Leave empty for all brands. |
| minRating | integer | No | – | Keep only deals whose product rating is at least this value. Deals without a rating are excluded when this is set. |
| priceMin | integer | No | – | Keep deals at or above this price in the marketplace's local currency. |
| priceMax | integer | No | – | Keep deals at or below this price in the marketplace's local currency. |

| primeExclusiveOnly | boolean | No | false | Only return deals in Amazon's Prime Exclusive collection. |
| sortBy | string | No | featured | Featured keeps Amazon's order. Other sorts read the fetched deal window before returning, so they may take longer. One of: featured, priceLow, priceHigh, discountHigh, ratingHigh. |
| maxItems | integer | No | 30 | Hard cap on emitted deal records. Amazon exposes up to 500 deals per category/collection query; add categories to partition the window. |
What each row holds
Every field the Actor returns stays in the row (8 in its dataset schema). Normalize + dedupe trims text, drops empty fields, removes repeats with the same asin and adds _source and _scrapedAt. The main fields:
| Field | What it is |
|---|---|
| asin | Asin |
| title | Title |
| dealPrice | Deal Price |
| savingsPercent | Savings Percent |
| averageRating | Average Rating |
| dealEndsAt | Deal Ends At |
| category | Category |
What the first run costs
With the starter input (maxItems = 25) a first run costs about $0.42 on the Apify Free plan: $0.40 to start the run at 4 GB of memory and $0.02 for the results, plus platform usage.
The Actor lists $0.99 per 1,000 results; its catalogue page breaks the price down by Apify plan. The Apify Free plan includes $5 of usage a month.

Questions people ask
How do I import this workflow into n8n?
Copy https://scraperfinder.com/n8n/amazon-deals-grid-tracker-by-category-and-discount.json. In n8n, open a new workflow, click the three-dot menu, choose Import from URL and paste it. Or download the JSON file and use Import from File; both give the same 6 nodes.
Do I need an Apify account?
Yes. The workflow calls the Amazon Deals Grid Tracker by Category & Discount Actor through the Apify API with your own token, and each run is billed to your Apify account. The Free plan includes $5 of usage a month.
What does a run cost?
With the starter input (maxItems = 25) a first run costs about $0.42 on the Apify Free plan: $0.40 to start the run at 4 GB of memory and $0.02 for the results, plus platform usage. The Actor's Store page shows the current price.
Can I change what it collects?
Yes: edit the input object in the Configure input node. The Actor takes 12 settings; the table on this page lists each one with its default. Raise maxItems once the first rows look right.
Does it work without Google Sheets?
Yes. The rows wait in the Rows ready node, so you can connect any other node there: a database, Airtable, a webhook or an email. The Google Sheets node is only one option.
