How does this automation work?
Bardeen's workflow automation offers a powerful solution for extracting key insights from websites and summarizing content for easy digestion and storage. This is particularly valuable for professionals in data sourcing and research who need to aggregate and synthesize information quickly. By automating the process of gathering keywords and summaries, users can save time and enhance their research capabilities, leading to more informed decision-making.
Here's how this workflow extracts website content and stores it in Coda:
- Step 1: Identify active tabs - The workflow begins by identifying open browser tabs to target the website you wish to analyze.
- Step 2: Capture current page URL - Bardeen retrieves the URL of the current page, ensuring the right content is processed.
- Step 3: Extract HTML content - The HTML content of the page is then captured for further processing.
- Step 4: Convert HTML to text - This step transforms the HTML content into plain text, preparing it for keyword extraction.
- Step 5: Extract keywords with OpenAI - Using OpenAI's capabilities, the workflow identifies and extracts key phrases and terms from the text.
- Step 6: Merge extracted keywords - The identified keywords are then compiled into a single text string, separated by commas when multiple values are present.
- Step 7: Summarize text with OpenAI - OpenAI also helps to create a concise summary of the text, highlighting the most important information.
- Step 8: Save to Coda - Finally, the keywords and summary are added to a Coda table, centralizing the data for easy access and review.

You will be asked to specify a Coda table. After you choose the database, you will get a prompt to map the information to the fields in Coda.
The left side consists of all the fields Bardeen will scrape for you. On the right side, specify the fields in Coda that you want to associate with the information on the left. If you don’t want a piece of information, leave that field empty, and it will be skipped. That’s it!
