Scrape detailed GitHub profiles to Google Sheets using BrowserAct

Scrape Detailed GitHub Profiles to Google Sheets Using BrowserAct This template is a sophisticated data enrichment and reporting tool that scrapes detailed GitHub user profiles and organizes the information into dedicated, structured reports within a Google Sheet. This workflow is essential for technical recruiters, talent acquisition teams, and business intelligence analysts who need to dive deep into a pre-qualified list of developers to understand their recent activity, repositories, and technical footprint. --- Self-Hosted Only This Workflow uses a community contribution and is designed and tested for self-hosted n8n instances only. --- How it works The workflow is triggered manually but can be started by a Schedule Trigger or by integrating directly with a candidate sourcing workflow (like the "Source Top GitHub Contributors" template). A Google Sheets node reads a list of target GitHub user profile URLs from a master candidate sheet. The Loop Over Items node processes each user one by one. A Slack notification is sent at the beginning of the loop to announce that the scraping process has started for the user. A BrowserAct node visits the user's GitHub profile URL and scrapes all available data, including profile info, repositories, and social links. A custom Code node (labeled "Code in JavaScript") performs a critical task: it cleans, fixes, and consolidates the complex, raw scraped data into a single, clean JSON object. The workflow then dynamically manages your output. It creates a new sheet dedicated to the user (named after them) and clears it to ensure a fresh report every time. The consolidated data is separated into three paths: main profile data, links, and repositories. Three final Google Sheets nodes then append the structured data to the user's dedicated sheet, creating a clear, multi-section report (User Data, User Links, User Repositories). --- Requirements BrowserAct API account for web scraping BrowserAct "Scraping GitHub Users Activity & Data" Template BrowserAct " Source Top GitHub Contributors by Language & Location" Template Output BrowserAct n8n Community Node -> (n8n Nodes BrowserAct) Google Sheets credentials for input (candidate list) and structured output (individual user sheets) Slack credentials for sending notifications --- Need Help? #### How to Find Your BrowseAct API Key & Workflow ID #### How to Connect n8n to Browseract #### How to Use & Customize BrowserAct Templates #### How to Use the BrowserAct N8N Community Node --- Workflow Guidance and Showcase #### GitHub Data Mining: Extracting User Profiles & Repositories with N8N
