New Item in Feed on RSS

Description:Emit new items from an RSS feed

Version:1.2.6

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,

            if (Number.isNaN(publishedAfter) || publishedAfter > ts) {
                continue;
            }
            const meta = this.generateMeta(item);
            this.$emit(item, meta);
        }
    },
});

Accredible Overview#

The Accredible API lets you automate the creation and management of digital certificates, badges, and blockchain credentials. Using Pipedream, you can connect the Accredible API to myriad services for streamlined workflow automation. Create digital certificates when a student completes a course, update credentials with new information, or share achievements across social platforms or via email. Pipedream's serverless platform enables you to integrate these actions with other apps, such as learning management systems, CRMs, and communication tools, without writing extensive code.
