Creating a news alert system - Triggers

[Cristian_Salazar]

Hello! I’ve finally hit a wall trying create a “news alert” automation. Basically, the idea is that the scenario would monitor for incoming news items and get processed by AI before sending a report via Gmail to my work address.

I’ve tried this scenario with the following triggers: RSS (via Google Alerts); Gmail; and Webhooks.

These all seem to work when I run tests. I do receive the emails and the report is OK (needs refining). But I’m not sure why the scenario isn’t triggered when new info comes in. I have to go in manually to run it each time. Here’s an example:

Hey Cristian,

your trigger type at the moment is On Demand, so it only runs manually. You need to change it. Types of modules - Help Center

OK, I thought “on demand” was when the module receives data. Do you know of any setting where it would automatically run when the RSS feed updates? I don’t want to run it every 15 mins, for instance.

The one that triggers when data arrives is Instant Acid trigger. And it is not available for the RSS module unfortunately. Where is the feed coming from? Maybe you can have a webhook instead when new data arrives?
