In this tutorial, the speaker demonstrates how to use the community‑managed "Scrape Creators" node within n8n (referred to as NAN) to scrape data from virtually any social media platform at a very low cost. The process begins by searching for the Scrape Creators node in n8n and installing it via the orange "Install Node" button. Once installed, the node provides actions for platforms such as Facebook, Facebook Ads, Google Ads, Google, Instagram, LinkedIn, LinkedIn Ads, and Pinterest. The speaker then shows how to create credentials by registering for a free account at app.scrapecreators.com, copying the provided API key, and saving it in n8n. With credentials in place, a Pinterest search is configured: the query "dogs" and a result limit of 50. Executing the node returns the scraped data, and the speaker notes that the service costs roughly $10 for 5,000 searches. A full‑length video on the topic is also referenced.

This is how you can scrape any social media for stupidly cheap inside of NAN. First, you want to type up Scrape Creators in NAN. Then when you click on it, there'll be an orange button here that says Install Node, and you're going to click that. It's just because it isn't a native NAN node, it's a community-managed one, so you need to install it. Then you'll get all of these different actions inside of different social media. So Facebook, Facebook Ads, Google Ads, Google, Instagram, LinkedIn, LinkedIn Ads, Pinterest— literally everything. So let's say we wanted to search Pinterest, we just click Search Pinterest, and then it puts the node down. And then to set up your credentials, just go to Create New Credentials. Social, then you want to go to app.scrapecreators.com. It's free to create an account and you'll get a free API key. So you can just copy that, paste it into here, and then hit save. Now you can scrape literally any social media platform. So we're doing Pinterest, the query could be dogs, and the limit could be 50. Then when I hit execute, I get all of this data back and only costs around $10 for 5,000 searches. Just posted a full video on this.
