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#

import rss from "../../app/rss.app.mjs";
import { defineSource } from "@pipedream/types";
import rssCommon from "../common/common.mjs";
export default defineSource({
    ...rssCommon,
    key: "rss-random-item-in-multiple-feeds",
    name: "Random item from multiple RSS feeds",
    type: "source",
    description: "Emit a random item from multiple RSS feeds",
    version: "0.2.7",
    props: {
        ...rssCommon.props,
        urls: {
            propDefinition: [
                rss,
                "urls",
            ],
        },
    },
    dedupe: "unique",
    hooks: {
        async activate() {
            // Try to parse the feed one time to confirm we can fetch and parse.
            // The code will throw any errors to the user.
            for (const url of this.urls) {
                await this.rss.fetchAndParseFeed(url);
            }
        },
    },
    async run() {
        const items = [];
        for (const url of this.urls) {
            const feedItems = await this.rss.fetchAndParseFeed(url);
            items.push(...feedItems);
        }
        const item = items[Math.floor(Math.random() * items.length)];
        const meta = this.generateMeta(item);
        this.$emit(item, meta);
    },
});

Uscreen Overview#

The Uscreen API lets you programmatically access your video on demand and OTT (over-the-top) service. With this API, you can pull data about videos, users, and sales, and carry out actions like creating and updating users, and more. By leveraging the Uscreen API on Pipedream, you can automate workflows involving video content management, user engagement tracking, and sales monitoring. This can significantly cut down manual effort and streamlines operations within your Uscreen account.

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
Uscreen	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Uscreen app.

Action Authentication#

Uscreen uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Uscreen account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Uscreen APIs in both code and no-code steps.

The UScreen API is available to Uscreen Plus customers but if you're not on the Plus plan, you can contact the UScreen team to inquire about access. Your CSM can provide you with your authorization key to use in the API. See the documentation here.
