Latenode

Sync new RSS feed items to your Google Calendar events

This Latenode automation helps users monitor an RSS feed and automatically create corresponding events in their Google Calendar.

By connecting the RSS feed to Google Calendar, users can stay up-to-date on new content from their subscribed sources and have those updates seamlessly reflected in their schedule. This integration streamlines the process of organizing events and staying on top of important news or announcements from the monitored RSS feed.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runs in credits: 1 credit = 30 seconds of processing. Minimum charge per run depends on your plan. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.
