🟨 Note: Set the trigger however you wish.

RSS Feeds (My RSS 01–04)
Fetches articles from four different RSS sources.

🟨 Note: You can add as many RSS feeds as you want.

Edit Fields (Edit Fields1–3)
Normalizes RSS fields (title, link, etc.) to ensure consistency across different sources.

Merge (append mode)
Combines the RSS items into a single unified list.

Optionally filter articles by keywords, date, or categories.

Send Summary to WhatsApp
