1.Monitors new items in feed
Integrate RSS by Zapier and feed ingestion tools to detect new feed entries and pass fields onward.
Create deduplicated feed records in your central sheet
Automatically monitor new item in feed across RSS by Zapier and Google Sheets. Create and update canonical ledger rows when new feed item arrives, published timestamps shift, or new entries appearβso you can standardize timestamps, generate a dedupe key, and prevent manual curation.
How this automation deduplicates your feed records
When new items land in your configured feeds, duplicates and inconsistent dates slow editorial review. This automation standardizes timestamps and generates a content hash and writes a single canonical rowβso your team can review cleaner feed items.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism β I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder
