Save each new Google News article related to a specific topic in Google Sheets

Stay ahead effortlessly: get all new Google News articles on your chosen subject sent straight into Google Sheets, no copy-paste, zero stress.

  • Execute the task periodically
  • Extract the next new article based on keyword (gnews → rss_keyword)
  • Add a new row at the end of a sheet (gspreadsheet → add_row_to_end)

Chasing the latest news on your topic of interest is exhausting—constantly searching Google News, sorting through irrelevant articles, and manually updating your spreadsheets is both tedious and time-consuming. Every missed update means blind spots: you risk losing that crucial bit of information just when your team or business needs to spot a trend or report a breakthrough. The cost? Hours lost every week, reduced visibility, and opportunities slipping through the cracks because the data simply isn’t there when you need it.

This Botize formula does all the heavy lifting by monitoring Google News around the clock for your chosen topic. Every time a new, relevant article appears, the automation grabs essential details—like title, link, summary, and publish date—and instantly adds them to your Google Sheet. You never need to refresh news feeds or copy-paste headlines again; your curated news dashboard grows effortlessly, updated precisely how and when you want (with fully customizable frequency and filters for your specific needs).

Ready to reclaim your time and never miss a breaking story again? Just follow the Botize step-by-step setup, or jump straight into the ready-to-use formula. Tailor it to your keywords and reporting schedule in minutes—so you stay informed, efficient, and always a step ahead.
