Automate RSS Content with AI: Summarize, Notify & Archive

Last edited 39 days ago

🚀 Product Overview This n8n workflow template automates the entire lifecycle of RSS feed monitoring—perfect for tech news aggregation, content curation, and AI-powered updates. It reads RSS links from a Google Sheets file, fetches content, summarizes it using GPT, sends digest messages to Discord, and stores clean content into a Google Sheets database for future use.

🔄 How It Works ✅ 1. Scheduled RSS Fetching Triggers every 24 hours via Schedule Trigger.

Reads a list of RSS feed URLs from a centralized Google Sheets file.

Splits them for individual processing.

🔍 2. Feed Scanning & Filtering Loops through each RSS link and retrieves the latest entries.

Filters out content older than 24 hours to avoid duplicates or outdated info.

🤖 3. AI Summarization & Messaging Aggregates filtered entries.

Summarizes content using an AI Agent (OpenAI Chat Model).

Sends beautifully formatted summaries directly to Discord as a message, keeping your community or team informed.

🗃️ 4. Persistent Storage Converts each item to Markdown.

Writes entries to a second Google Sheets file, including a rate limiter (wait step) to avoid API limits.
