Get Cheapest Nearby Fuel Prices to Telegram via n8n

Get the cheapest nearby fuel prices in France, Spain, or Italy—automatically sent to Telegram via n8n

This n8n workflow checks nearby fuel stations every morning and delivers the cheapest results directly to your Telegram chat—so you can spot better prices before you hit the road.

What this workflow does

• Runs daily at 07:00 using an n8n scheduled trigger.
• Configures your location and preferences by setting: country, latitude, longitude, radiusKm, and the fuel type you want.
• Fetches live pricing data by calling the Apify EU Fuel Prices Actor API and requesting up to five stations within your radius, sorted by the cheapest price for the selected fuel.
• Formats a Telegram-ready message that lists each station’s price, address details, and distance.
• Gracefully handles empty results by sending a fallback message when no stations match your criteria.
• Sends everything to Telegram using your configured chat.

Use cases

• Daily commutes: receive a quick “cheapest nearby” update at 7:00 before planning errands.
• Road trips across borders: switch country and coordinates to monitor fuel prices in France, Spain, or Italy.
• Fleet and ops teams: forward the lowest nearby station options to a Telegram channel for faster decision-making.
