    Trigger
    Scheduled
    Try It
    • Feed URLRequired

      Customize the private URL for this RSS feed. Letters, numbers, and hyphens only, no spaces.

    • Feed Title

      Defaults to "A Feed Called X" where X is the last portion of the feed's url from above.

    • Max Records

      50 is the max, but this allows you to reduce the number of items returned in the feed.

    • Item TitleRequired

      The title of the item to publish.

    • Source URLRequired

      Provide a source URL for where this item is permanently hosted. Most RSS readers turn the title into a clickable link to this URL.

    • ContentRequired

      Provide the plain text or HTML content of the feed item.

    • Automatically Truncate Messages over 10KB?

      Use this field to control whether Zapier will truncate data over the 10kb limit (select Yes), or generate an error if the data is too large (select No). See our Help for more information.

    • Author Name

    • Author Email

    • Author Link

    • Media URL

      Specify a raw download URL for your podcast file, image, or other media file.

    • Media MIME Type

      What is the MIME type for your raw file? Defaults to audio/mpeg.

    • Media Length in Bytes

      Some players require a valid length. Defaults to 0.

    • Pubdate

      Most people would put "now", but you can change it to something like "tomorrow" or "next week monday at 7pm" or "2013-08-23 12:00:00 +0800"! Note, we do not order by pubdate, just by order inserted.

    Action
    Write
    • DigestRequired

    Action
    Write
    • URLRequired

      This should return a list of dictionaries of content type JSON in reverse chronological order. For example: [{"id":1234},{"id":1235}]

    • Key

      If the returned JSON is not a list and is instead an object (maybe paginated), enter the key that contains the results. Example: "results", "items", "objects", etc... (children via dot syntax supported)

    • Deduplication Key

      Zapier deduplicates the array we see each poll against the id key. If the id key does not exist, you should specify an alternative unique key to deduplicate off of. If neither are supplied, we fallback to looking for the shortest key with id in it otherwise we will raise an error.

    • Xpath

      If the content fetched is XML or HTML, optionally define an xpath to extract data from the content. Will trigger whenever the content at the xpath changes!

    • Basic Auth

      A pipe (|) separated username, password combo for standard HTTP authentication.

    • Headers

      Key, value pairs to be added as headers in all requests.
