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.

Tookan Overview#

The Tookan API allows for the automation and streamlining of delivery and field services. By integrating with Pipedream, users can trigger workflows based on events within Tookan, such as new task creation, task status updates, or agent alerts. This enables businesses to connect Tookan with other apps and services, automating notifications, data synchronization, and logistics operations, leading to improved coordination, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency.
