  1. 1

    Fetch Google News data

    Add an HTTP Request node (or the native Google News node if you have credentials set up) and point it at the Google News API. Run on a weekly Schedule Trigger and fetch this week's articles. Add a Schedule Trigger before it if this recipe runs on a timer, or a Webhook node if Google News can push events directly.

  2. 2

    Shape the data with a Set node

    Add a Set node after the fetch step to pull out the fields you need — e.g. id, title (or name), status, and updated_at from the Google News article. This keeps the rest of the workflow clean and readable.

  3. 3

    Send it to Google Drive

    Add a Google Drive node set to operation Upload. Connect your Google account, choose the destination Folder, and pass the file/summary through from the Set node.

  4. 4

    Activate and test

    Click Activate in the top-right corner. Trigger a real article in Google News (or run the workflow manually against existing data) and confirm it lands correctly in Google Drive. Once verified, this runs hands-off.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to code anything?

No. n8n is a visual, drag-and-drop builder. You connect your Google News and Google Drive accounts, map the fields, and activate — no code required.

Where do I get my Google News API credentials?

In your Google News account settings, look for "API", "Developers" or "Integrations" and generate an API key or token. Paste it into n8n's HTTP Request node (as a header or credential) or the native Google News node if one is available.

Can this run on a schedule instead of in real time?

Yes — swap the trigger for a `Schedule Trigger` set to whatever interval fits (every 15 minutes, hourly, daily). The rest of the workflow stays the same.
