Extract data from a webpage (Ycombinator news page) and create a nice list using the itemList node. It seems that the current version in n8n (0.141.1) requires extracting each variable one by one. Hopefully, in the future, it will be possible to create the table using just one itemList node.
Another nice feature of the workflow is an automatically generated file name with the resulting table. Check out the fileName option of the Spreadsheet File node:
```
Ycombinator_news_{{new Date().toISOString().split('T', 1)[0]}}.{{$parameter['fileFormat']}}
```
The resulting table is saved as an .xls file and delivered via email.
