RSS Feed simple flow

Questions

I have multiple different RSS feeds that I want to watch out for… It seems that with the N8N RSS Feed Trigger it automatically only returns the latest article from that feed. Now I added a short sample below to visualize what I want to build. So basically based on the domain of the RSS Feed I want to add a row and add a certain category to it (if its from one feed it adds the category chatbots, if from another it add SAP and so on) problem is that it does not deliver the URL input as part of the RSS output. Other thing is that I need to check if the post is already part of the list but I guess I can do that by checking if one of the parameters like the link is already part of the google sheets but then the question is which module makes the most sense to use here.

So did anyone build anything similar to that already and can help me out? Would highly appreciate it.

The other question is if this generally works if I execute this say every hour PER RSS Feed that it processes them in parallel and adds them to the sources. Anyways would be glad if someone could help.

  • n8n version: 1.69.2

  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): own, main
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): self-hosted in google cloud
  • Operating system: Windows10

Dear Kiremit,

Better late then never, am i right? Im sure you figured it out by yourself by now.
I just started using N8N yesterday, and i think its an awesome program!
And why I tried to solve your problem is just so I could learn more about N8N myself.

Below i have an example of the workflow I think you want to have.
I added a few rss feeds, just to show that you can add more.
Added a schedule so they dont all run at the same time.
Added a category node, so you can add your own categories for each node.

And there is a google sheet read to check if the title is already pressent.
So now it will only add to the google sheet if its not pressent yet.

Hopefully this will answer your question.
