We just rolled out a new core feature of the platform - event sources - and thought it'd be fun to show off how it works for RSS feeds.
Event sources let you treat an RSS feed like an event stream: Pipedream polls the feed for you, and exposes a REST API and private SSE stream for accessing new items from the feed.
You can also trigger a Pipedream workflow on new items. We built 12 example workflows (linked on the page) for doing all sorts of things with RSS feeds, for example:
- RSS to Email
- RSS to AWS EventBridge
- Run a Puppeteer script to take a screenshot of every new item in an RSS feed
- etc.
Give it a try and let us know if you have any feedback or suggested improvements!
