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.

Outscraper Overview#

Outscraper provides a powerful API to scrape public data from Google services like Google Maps, Google Search, and Google Ads. The API can extract rich datasets including business listings, reviews, ads data, and SERP. When leveraged with Pipedream, you can automate workflows integrating Outscraper's capabilities with other apps, conduct data analysis, monitor brand mentions, or enrich CRM data, all in real-time and without the need for manual intervention.
