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.
Connect RSS#
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
},
})
Overview of Mixpanel#
Mixpanel's API allows you to track user interactions with your web and mobile applications, providing insights through data analysis. You can capture events, update user profiles, and segment data based on user actions. Integrating Mixpanel with Pipedream enables you to automate responses to these events, sync data across services, and trigger workflows that can enhance user engagement and improve retention.
