Overview of RSS#
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.

props: {
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
},
})
Overview of Free Dictionary#
The Free Dictionary API provides a straightforward way to access dictionary definitions, synonyms, antonyms, and translations for words in multiple languages. With it, you can fetch detailed word meanings, usage examples, and phonetic transcriptions, enabling a variety of educational and linguistic automation opportunities on Pipedream. This API is valuable for developers looking to create language learning tools, content enrichment services, or to simply integrate rich lexical data into their applications.
