        "content": "## Facebook Marketplace Property & Rentals Scraper — Automated Sheets, CSV & Slack Pipeline\n\nBuilt for market research, e-commerce, and growth teams. This workflow runs on a schedule to extract fresh data with the **[facebook-marketplace-property-scraper Apify Actor](https://apify.com/unitbytes/facebook-marketplace-property-scraper?fpr=939u3w&fp_sid=n8n_io)** ($0.0015 / item), skips previously seen records, scores each item, logs results to **Google Sheets** and **CSV**, and posts **Slack** alerts for top matches.\n\n### How it works\n1. **Every 6 Hours** triggers the run and loads search settings from **1. Configure Search & Rules**.\n2. **2. Run UnitBytes (facebook-marketplace-property-scraper)** executes the actor via Apify's synchronous endpoint.\n3. **3. Skip Seen Records** deduplicates items by `id` across runs.\n4. **4. Clean & Score Items** and **5. Map Export Fields** normalize fields (`id, url, title, price, numeric_price`) and compute a 0–100 `priorityScore`.\n5. **6a. Log to Google Sheets** and **6b. Export Backup CSV** store all rows, while **6c. Filter High-Priority Items** sends top matches to **7. Send Slack Alert**.\n\n### Setup\n1. Copy your API token from [facebook-marketplace-property-scraper on Apify Store](https://apify.com/unitbytes/facebook-marketplace-property-scraper?fpr=939u3w&fp_sid=n8n_io) into the **HTTP Header Auth** credential (`Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>`) on node 2.\n2. Edit `actorInput`, `sheetTab`, and `maxTargetPrice` in **1. Configure Search & Rules**.\n3. Connect **Google Sheets** and **Slack** credentials (or test immediately via CSV export).\n\n### Customization\n- Tune `maxTargetPrice` or `priorityKeyword` in node 1 to adjust Slack alert sensitivity.\n- Full schema reference: [https://unitbytes.com/actors/facebook-marketplace-property-scraper/](https://unitbytes.com/actors/facebook-marketplace-property-scraper/)",
