Real Simple Syndication
Retrieve multiple RSS feeds and return a merged array of items sorted by date See documentation
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.
module.exports = defineComponent({
props: {
rss: {
type: "app",
app: "rss",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
// Retrieve items from a sample feed
const Parser = require('rss-parser');
const parser = new Parser();
const stories = []
// Replace with your feed URL
const url = "https://pipedream.com/community/latest.rss"
const feed = await parser.parseURL(url);
const { title, items } = feed
this.title = title
if (!items.length) {
$end("No new stories")
}
this.items = items
},
})
The ClickTime API provides programmatic access to the ClickTime platform, which specializes in time tracking and project management. Leveraging this API within Pipedream allows you to automate various aspects of time tracking, employee management, and reporting. For example, you can create workflows that sync time entry data with other systems, automate notifications based on time tracking metrics, or even manage projects and tasks dynamically. Pipedream's serverless platform facilitates these automations by triggering workflows with HTTP requests, schedules, or app-based events, and offers the capability to connect to numerous other services and APIs to extend functionality further.
