Create and host a custom webfeed (RSS)

My goal is to take information currently held within Airtable, turn it into a custom RSS feed, and then use that feed in Klaviyo as a custom webfeed to update a weekly campaign/newsletter.

The only issue I am having is I haven’t been able to find a way within Make to create and host a custom RSS feed? I was wondering if anyone knew of a workaround, perhaps an app that has this functionality if you jump through some hoops.

I know that Zapier has the functionality to create a custom RSS feed, but thought it would be worth seeing if there were any Make specific ways to do this before going down that route.

Thanks

Welcome to the Make community!

I’m pretty sure you can create an RSS feed directly in Make using these four modules:

  • Custom Webhook
  • Airtable Search
  • Text Aggregator
  • Webhook Response

If you need further assistance, please provide the following:

  • Output bundle of your Airtable get items/search module, with example items you want in your RSS feed
  • Example format of your RSS feed

Please provide the output bundles of the modules by running the scenario, then click the white speech bubble on the top-right of each module and select “Download output bundles”.

A.

Save the bundle contents in your text editor as a bundle.txt file, and upload it here into this discussion thread.
Uploading it here will look like this:

If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted output bundle in this manner:

  • Either add three backticks ``` before and after the code, like this:

    ```
    input/output bundle content goes here
    ```

  • Or use the format code button in the editor:

Providing the output bundles will allow others to replicate what is going on in the scenario even if they do not use the external service.

This will allow others to better assist you. Thanks!
