A Zapier workflow that uses Apify. NexGenData has no official Zapier app β these are public-data Apify actors you run inside Zapier through Apify’s official integration, scheduled, with your own Apify account.
The problem: prices and sellers change faster than you can check
If you sell into e-commerce, run an agency, or watch competitors, product prices, sellers, and availability move daily β and you find out about a price drop or stockout too late. A scheduled Zap pulls Google Shopping data automatically and routes the changes into a sheet, Slack, or Airtable.
Who this is for
E-commerce sellers, DTC brands, competitive-intel and agency teams who want hands-off price/product monitoring.
The Zapier workflow
- Trigger / schedule β Schedule by Zapier (e.g. daily).
- Run Actor β Apify app β “Run Actor” β Google Shopping Scraper, with your product queries in the input.
- Fetch dataset items β pull product, seller, price, availability, rating.
- Filter / format β keep only price drops, stockouts, or new SKUs.
- Send to destination β Google Sheets, Slack, Airtable, or (paid) a webhook.
Note: a multi-step Zap (filter + multiple destinations) and the Webhooks app require a paid Zapier plan; a basic 2-step Zap works on the free tier.

Illustrative sample.
Run it on a schedule
Set the Zap schedule once and it becomes an always-on price watch: each run refreshes the data and alerts you only when something moved.

FAQ
Does NexGenData have an official Zapier app? No. This is a Zapier workflow that uses Apify’s official Zapier integration to run a NexGenData actor with your own Apify account.
What does it cost? Zapier’s free tier covers a basic 2-step Zap (100 tasks/month); multi-step and Webhooks need a paid plan. The actor run is pay-per-use on your Apify account.
How do I detect only price changes? Store the last run’s prices (a sheet or Storage by Zapier) and filter to rows that changed before alerting.
