The original title is: "Automate FOMC and CPI Alerts with n8n and a Free Economic Calendar API"

Short summary

This tutorial walks through building a 15-minute n8n workflow that polls an Apify actor scraping ForexFactory's economic calendar and pushes high-impact USD event alerts (FOMC, CPI, NFP) to Telegram each weekday morning. The workflow uses a cron-triggered HTTP request to the economic-calendar-pro actor, filters for high-impact USD events, and sends formatted Telegram messages per event — all on free tiers. The author discloses they built the Apify actor being recommended, and includes troubleshooting for common failure modes like auth errors and timeouts.
