n8n + Apify Reddit Lead Finder: Daily Buying-Intent to Sheets & Slack

Turn Reddit buying-intent into Daily Leads for Sheets + Slack—Automatically

This n8n workflow runs every morning, pulls new buying-intent Reddit leads using Apify’s Reddit Lead Finder, appends every lead to Google Sheets, and sends a single Slack digest with only the highest-scoring “hot” leads.

What this workflow does

• Scheduled daily run: Executes every day at 8:00 via n8n scheduling.
• Query building with your settings: Constructs the Reddit lead-finding query from your keywords, competitors, optional subreddits, and intent thresholds.
• Apify lead discovery: Calls the Apify Reddit Lead Finder actor (ID: r9XHFcy7pGNxCPbIw) to search Reddit over the past week, score buying intent, and return only leads you haven’t seen before.
• Structured lead rows: Formats each returned lead into a consistent row (including score, intent label, thread details, author, and link).
• Google Sheets logging: Appends every lead as a new row in your target spreadsheet.
• Hot-lead digest to Slack: Filters leads at or above minIntentScore / hotLeadScore, aggregates them, and posts one Slack message to your chosen channel.

Use cases

• SaaS teams monitoring competitive conversations to capture high-intent prospects quickly.
• Automation engineers building an n8n + Apify pipeline for lead enrichment and routing.
• Growth operators who want daily Reddit signals in Google Sheets plus a focused Slack alert.
