Automate Your Daily News: Post RSS Feed Updates to Slack
detail.loadingPreview
Never miss a beat from your favorite RSS feeds. This workflow automatically checks for new posts from the previous day and delivers them directly to your Slack channel every morning.
About This Workflow
This powerful n8n workflow is designed to streamline your information consumption by automatically fetching content from an RSS feed and posting it to Slack. Every morning at 8 AM, it calculates yesterday's date, retrieves new entries from a specified RSS feed (defaulting to the n8n.io blog), filters them to include only posts published after yesterday, and then constructs a formatted message. This message, containing the title, link, and a snippet of the content for each relevant post, is then sent to a designated Slack channel. It's an ideal solution for keeping teams informed about important updates without manual intervention.
Key Features
- Scheduled Daily Updates: Runs automatically every morning to ensure you're always up-to-date.
- RSS Feed Integration: Connects to any standard RSS feed to pull the latest content.
- Smart Date Filtering: Only retrieves posts published within the last 24 hours.
- Customizable Slack Notifications: Sends formatted messages directly to your preferred Slack channel.
- Easy Configuration: Simple setup with clear node definitions for quick implementation.
How To Use
- Schedule Trigger: Configure the 'Every Morning' node to set the exact time you want the workflow to run (e.g., 8 AM).
- Define RSS Feed: In the 'Get the RSS Feed' node, replace the default
https://n8n.io/blog/rsswith the URL of the RSS feed you want to monitor. - Set Slack Channel: In the 'Post to Slack' node, specify the Slack channel name where you want the updates to be posted (e.g.,
#general,#news). - Configure Slack Credentials: Ensure you have set up your Slack API credentials within n8n and selected the correct credential in the 'Post to Slack' node.
- Activate Workflow: Enable the workflow by setting its status to 'active'.
