New Item in Feed on RSS

Description:Emit new items from an RSS feed

Version:1.2.9

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.

Zoho Sheet Overview#

The Zoho Sheet API allows you to manipulate spreadsheet data programmatically. Imagine harnessing this functionality within Pipedream's ecosystem, where you can automate data flows, sync information across platforms, and generate reports with ease. With Pipedream, you can trigger workflows using events from numerous apps, fetch or push data to Zoho Sheet, analyze or transform this data, and even automate notifications based on the results.
