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 Kickbox API on Pipedream allows you to verify email addresses to improve deliverability and reduce bounce rates. With this API, you can integrate email validation into your application's signup process, maintain the hygiene of your email lists, and orchestrate workflows involving email verification with various apps supported by Pipedream. By leveraging serverless workflows, you can automate tasks like updating CRM contacts, triggering marketing campaigns, or filtering out invalid emails before sending out newsletters.
