1. Connect your PagerDuty account
2. Optional- Select one or more Escalation Policies
3. Configure Interval to poll for new rotations
Configure the Merge RSS Feeds action
1. Connect your RSS account
2. Configure Feed URLs
Deploy the workflow
Send a test event to validate your setup
Turn on the trigger

Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

PagerDuty Overview#

The PagerDuty API offers a powerful interface to automate your digital operations management. By leveraging its capabilities on Pipedream, you can create workflows that respond to incidents, automate alerts, and synchronize incident data across various platforms. PagerDuty's API enables you to manage services, teams, and incidents, ensuring that your systems remain operational and that the right people are notified at the right time.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
PagerDuty	`pagerduty`	`app`	This component uses the PagerDuty app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Escalation Policies	`escalationPoliciesIds`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Interval to poll for new rotations	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	The PagerDuty API doesn't support webhook notifications for on-call rotations, so we must poll the API to check for these changes. Change this interval according to your needs.

Trigger Authentication#

PagerDuty uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your PagerDuty account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into PagerDuty and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any PagerDuty API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

RSS Overview#

The RSS app allows users to automatically fetch and parse updates from web feeds. This functionality is pivotal for staying abreast of content changes or updates from websites, blogs, and news outlets that offer RSS feeds. With Pipedream, you can harness the RSS API to trigger workflows that enable a broad range of automations, like content aggregation, monitoring for specific keywords, notifications, and data synchronization across platforms.

Action Code#

import rss from "../../app/rss.app.mjs";
import { defineAction } from "@pipedream/types";
export default defineAction({
    name: "Merge RSS Feeds",
    description: "Retrieve multiple RSS feeds and return a merged array of items sorted by date [See documentation](https://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification)",
    key: "rss-merge-rss-feeds",

            items.push(...feedItems);
        }
        $.export("$summary", "Successfully merged feeds");
        return this.rss.sortItemsForActions(items);
