Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger#

New Item in Feed on RSS

Description:Emit new items from an RSS feed

Version:1.2.6

Key:rss-new-item-in-feed

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#

Trigger Configuration#

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

Label	Prop	Type	Description
RSS	`rss`	`app`	This component uses the RSS app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	How often you want to poll the feed for new items
Feed URL	`url`	`string`	Enter the URL for any public RSS feed
Published After	`publishedAfter`	`string`	Emit items published after the specified date in ISO 8601 format .e.g `2022-12-07T12:57:10+07:00`

Trigger Authentication#

The RSS API does not require authentication.

Get Technologies on Wappalyzer

Wappalyzer Overview#

The Wappalyzer API lets you uncover the technology stack of any website. On Pipedream, you can integrate this capability into workflows to automate tech stack detection. Here's what you can do: identify the software used by your competitors, track technology adoption, and get insights into your target market's tech preferences. By leveraging Pipedream's robust platform, you can connect Wappalyzer with other services to create custom workflows that trigger actions based on the tech stack data you collect.

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
Wappalyzer	`wappalyzer`	`app`	This component uses the Wappalyzer app.
URLs	`urls`	`string[]`	Between one and ten website URLs. Example: `https://example.com,https://example.org`. Multiple URLs are not supported with `recursive=false`.
Live	`live`	`boolean`	Scan websites in real-time. Defaults to `false` to return cached results from our database (faster and more complete). If no record is found, `live=true` is automatically used instead. Use `recursive=false` to get live results in the same request.
Recursive	`recursive`	`boolean`	Index multiple pages (follows internal website links for increased coverage). Defaults to `true` for best results. If no record is found or `live=true` is used, using `recursive=true` causes the request to be completed asynchronously, meaning technologies will not be included in the initial response and the website is being crawled. To get the results when they become available, use `callback_url` or repeat the request at a later time (free for up to one hour). A crawl can take up to 15 minutes. We recommend using `callback_url` or repeating the request up to three times every five minutes. When using both `live=true` and `recursive=true`, `callback_url` is required and requests cost two credits instead of one.
Callback URL	`callbackUrl`	`string`	When an asynchronous request completes, a POST request is made to the callback URL with the results. A callback URL is an public endpoint hosted on your own server. Example: `https://yourdomain.com/wappalyzer`. Required when using both `live=true` and `recursive=true`.
Denoise	`denoise`	`boolean`	Exclude low confidence results. Defaults to `true`. Setting this to `false` yields more results but is more likely to include false positives.
Min Age	`minAge`	`integer`	Return results that have been verified at least once before `min_age` months ago. Defaults to 0 for most recent results. Use a higher value in combination with `squash=false` and `max_age` for historic results grouped by month (up to 12 months per request).
Max Age	`maxAge`	`integer`	Return results that have been verified at least once in the last `max_age` months. Defaults to 2 for best results. To get the most up-to-date but fewer results, use `max_age=1`. For real-time results, use `live=true` instead. Use a higher value to get more but less recently verified results. These results are more likely to include websites that no longer use the technology. Use a higher value in combination with `squash=false` and optionally `min_age` for historic results grouped by month (up to 12 months per request).
Squash	`squash`	`boolean`	Merge monthly results into a single set. Defaults to `true`. Set to `false` to group results by month.
