An r/n8n post questioned whether Firecrawl is the right pick for an article-to-social workflow. For one-article-per-day flows, the answer is no — Firecrawl is overkill. This tutorial walks the migration.
Prerequisites
- Existing n8n workflow using Firecrawl
- Scavio API key
Walkthrough
Step 1: Identify Firecrawl HTTP nodes
Usually POST /v1/scrape or /v1/crawl.
# Before: HTTP node hits https://api.firecrawl.dev/v1/scrape with Bearer token.Step 2: Replace URL and headers
POST /api/v1/extract with x-api-key.
# After: HTTP node hits https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/extract with x-api-key header.Step 3: Map response shape
Firecrawl returns markdown under data.markdown.
# Firecrawl: {{$json.data.markdown}}
# Scavio: {{$json.markdown}}Step 4: Update downstream LLM prompt
If prompt referenced Firecrawl-specific fields.
# Most prompts that referenced 'data.markdown' now reference '$json.markdown' directly.Step 5: Confirm cost shift
Per-extract math.
# Firecrawl Hobby: 3,000 credits / $16/mo = $0.005/extract.
# Scavio: 7,000 credits / $30/mo = $0.0043/extract.Python Example
# Equivalent in Python with requests, ~10-min migration.JavaScript Example
// Same in n8n's JavaScript code nodes.Expected Output
n8n workflow runs on Scavio at lower per-extract cost. Optional bonus: same Scavio key calls /reddit/search if the workflow wants community angle.
