How this automation works

Automatically capture new posts from your favorite RSS feeds in Airtable and share them in Slack. This runs whenever a new item appears in the specified RSS feed, saving details to your Airtable table and posting a message to your chosen Slack channel. Ideal for teams tracking content, news updates, or blog posts across platforms. Note: Paste your feed URL to get started.
