Start a workflow automatically when a configured feed publishes a new entry.
The RSS Feed trigger is for always-on workflows that should watch a feed and send new entries into the rest of your workflow. Use it for podcast feeds, blog feeds, or any supported RSS or Atom source. If you want to run one media file by hand, use Manual Trigger instead.

​
Schema

  • Input: An RSS feed URL
  • Output: The new feed entry that starts the workflow

​
Add the node

Open Workflows from the left sidebar and click New to open the workflow builder. In the Trigger stage, choose RSS Feed. Overlap adds the trigger node to the canvas, selects it, and moves the left panel forward to Editing so you can continue building the workflow. Click the RSS Feed node on the canvas whenever you need to reopen its settings on the right side.

​
Configure the feed

In the right-side settings panel, fill in RSS Feed URL. The field accepts:
  • RSS 2.0 feeds, such as .rss or .xml URLs
  • Atom feeds, such as .atom URLs
  • podcast feeds from services like Spotify or Anchor
  • blog feeds from services like WordPress or Medium
Overlap verifies that the URL contains valid RSS content before the workflow can listen for new entries.

​
Build the rest of the workflow

After the trigger is configured, continue in Editing with nodes such as Find Clips, Add Subtitles, Reframe, or Audiogram. Finish with an export node, then click Publish when the workflow is ready to listen for new feed entries.
