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.

Overview of Playwright

Playwright is a Node.js library which provides a high-level API to control Chrome/Chromium over the DevTools Protocol. Playwright runs in headless mode on Chromium on Pipedream.

Using Playwright you can perform tasks including:

  • Capture Screenshots: Convert webpages into images.
  • Processing PDFs: parse and scan PDFs.
  • Web Scraping: Extract data from websites.
  • UI/UX Testing: Verify user interface and experience.
  • Integration with Test Frameworks: Combine with testing frameworks.
  • Task Automation: Automate web-related tasks like form filling.
  • Functional Testing: Automate user interactions to test web application functionality.
  • Regression Testing: Ensure new code changes don't introduce bugs.
