New Item in Feed on RSS

Description:Emit new items from an RSS feed

Version:1.2.7

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#

Cloud Convert Overview#

The Cloud Convert API offers a robust solution for file conversion, supporting a vast array of file formats. With Pipedream, you can harness this versatility to create automated workflows that trigger file conversions, process the resulting files, and integrate with other services. By combining Cloud Convert with Pipedream's connectivity to hundreds of apps, you can craft custom automation that saves time and removes the friction from multi-format file management tasks.

Action Code#

import app from "../../cloud_convert.app.mjs";
import constants from "../../common/constants.mjs";

export default {
  key: "cloud_convert-create-archive",
  name: "Create Archive",
  description: "Creates an archive in a specified format. [See the documentation](https://cloudconvert.com/api/v2/archive#archive-tasks)",

          filters: {

    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const {
      createArchive,

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

user.readuser.writetask.readtask.writewebhook.readwebhook.write
