Schedule a daily google search

Is there a way to schedule a google search to be done once every day on a few keywords, and notify me if it finds a page that matches those search terms? (I searched and didn't find anything, except scheduling Google Calendar events.) Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 04:11, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

On https://scholar.google.com (Google Scholar) there is a create alert button. It sends an email when new matches are made. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:12, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

I think Google Alerts is the same idea, but more generally (not just for the academic area). -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 11:01, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll look into that and see. (Google Alerts) Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 20:01, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

And directions. Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 20:51, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

It is working!
