How this automation works

Create Basecamp to-dos from new RSS Feed items. When a new item appears in the RSS feed you specify, this Applet creates a to-do in the Basecamp list you choose. This helps teams and individuals capture blog posts, news, or content updates in Basecamp for tracking and follow-up. Note: Paste your feed URL to get started.
