RSS Feeds & AI Swarms

Learn how to automatically ingest blog posts and transform them using xAI Grok.

Step-by-Step Guide

Building an autonomous content generator.

1

Ingest the Content (RSS Trigger)

In the Trigger section, change the dropdown from "CSV URL" to "RSS Feed URL". Paste the link to a blog or podcast RSS feed. VACN will automatically grab the latest post's {{title}}, {{description}}, and {{link}}.

2

The LLM Node (AI Transformation)

Scroll down to the Parser section. In the purple AI Transformation (xAI Grok) box, write a prompt telling the AI what to do with the ingested content. You can inject variables directly into your prompt!

Example AI Prompt:

Take this blog post description: "{{description}}". Act as a professional social media manager and write 3 punchy, engaging variations for a Twitter thread.

Distribute the Output (Action)

Whatever Grok writes in response to your prompt is automatically saved as a new variable called {{ai_output}}. You can drop this directly into your JSON payload to send it to GFAVIP Chat!

JSON Payload Template:

{
  "title": "šŸ“° New Blog Post: {{title}}",
  "message": "**Suggested Social Posts:**\n{{ai_output}}\n\nšŸ‘‰ [Read Original]({{link}})",
  "color": "#f59e0b"
}
