2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect
After accessing the dashboard, you will need to create a new workflow using Pabbly Connect. Click on “Access Now” under the Pabbly Connect option. Choose the quick builder method to set up your workflow efficiently.
- Select “Create Workflow” from the dashboard.

Now that you have set up a workflow, you can define your trigger and action. A trigger is an event that starts the automation, while an action is what happens as a result of that trigger.
3. Setting Up RSS Feed Trigger in Pabbly Connect
To automate notifications, you’ll first set up an RSS feed as the trigger in Pabbly Connect. Choose “RSS by Pabbly” as the application and enter the feed URL from which you want to capture updates.
For example, you can use the Hindu latest RSS feed. After copying the feed URL, paste it into the designated field in Pabbly Connect. Select the default filter type and click on “Save and Send Test Request” to capture the latest feed item.
4. Connecting Discord as an Action in Pabbly Connect
After successfully capturing the RSS feed, you need to set Discord as the action in Pabbly Connect. Select “Discord” as your application and choose to add a new connection. This will prompt you to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Discord account.
Next, you will need to set up a webhook in your Discord channel. Go to your Discord channel settings, select “Integrations,” and then “Webhooks.” Create a new webhook and copy the URL provided. Paste this URL back into Pabbly Connect, ensuring you extract the webhook ID and token correctly.
5. Finalizing Your Automation in Pabbly Connect
With the webhook set up, you can now finalize your automation. In Pabbly Connect, configure the message text that will be sent to your Discord channel whenever a new RSS feed item is captured. Use dynamic mapping to insert the title, summary, and URL of the article into the message.
Once you have set all fields, click on “Save and Send Request” to test the automation. A successful response indicates that your new article notification has been sent to Discord. You can verify this by checking your Discord channel for the new message.
