Trigger: On a schedule (every day at 09:00).

  3. Restructure API Response to JSON (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
  4. Lookup Existing Tool by Title (Google Sheets): uses Google Sheets
  5. Is Tool New? (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  6. AI Agent: runs an AI agent, with model: OpenAI GPT-4.1 Mini; 2 tools (Lookup Category Dictionary (Read), Update Category Dictionary (Write))
  7. Extract Pagination Info (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 2 fields: cursor, hasnextpage
  8. Clean & Parse AI JSON Output (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
