with RSS and UiPath?
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
},
})
UiPath is a leader in Robotic Process Automation (RPA), enabling businesses to automate routine tasks with software robots. Their API provides the ability to manage these robots, processes, and queues programmatically. With UiPath's API on Pipedream, you can create sophisticated automation workflows that trigger actions in UiPath as part of broader, cross-application processes. This could involve initiating UiPath jobs based on incoming data from different sources, managing resources, or reacting to events from other applications or services to create a seamless automation ecosystem.
