New Item in Feed on RSS

RSS Overview#

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.

Trigger Code#

RealGeeks Overview#

The RealGeeks API offers a gateway to RealGeeks' real estate platform, allowing you to manage leads, properties, and agents programmatically. With the RealGeeks API on Pipedream, you can automate interactions with RealGeeks, such as syncing leads with other platforms, triggering actions based on property updates, and managing CRM activities. Pipedream's serverless platform enables you to create these workflows with minimal setup, using pre-built actions or custom Node.js code steps.
