What this workflow does

This workflow has 18 nodes and runs on a schedule (every 10 minutes). Along the way it connects Google Sheets, Slack and Snapshot Site (community).

How it runs

  2. Loop Over Watched Pages (Loop Over Items (Split in Batches)): loops over the items in batches
  3. Analyze Page Availability (Snapshot Site): analyze
  4. Check for API Error (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  5. Record Page Down (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 9 fields: url, label, baselineUrl…
  6. Evaluate Availability (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
  7. Detect State Change (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
  8. Check Whether Page Is Up (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  9. Check for State Change (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  10. Compare Page to Baseline (Snapshot Site): compare

…plus 6 more steps. See the full node list below.
