Automatically Send Every RSS Feed item to Telegram in Real Time
Every time a new RSS feed item comes in, n8n instantly captures the details and send a Telegram message — no manual exports, no missed data, no code.
- 1
Add the RSS Feed Read Trigger node
Start with a
RSS Feed Read Triggernode — paste the feed URL into theFeed URLfield and set a polling interval (e.g. every 15 minutes). The node emits each new item once. This fires the workflow the moment a new feed item arrives. - 2
Map the fields with a Set node
Add a
Setnode after the trigger to shape the data cleanly. Create fields:titleto{{ $json.title }},linkto{{ $json.link }}, andpublishedto{{ $json.isoDate }}. This turns the raw payload into tidy values your destination can use. - 3
Send it to Telegram
Add a
Telegramnode set to operationSend Message. Connect your bot token (from @BotFather), setChat IDto your channel or personal chat, and build theTextfrom the Set-node fields. - 4
Activate and test
Click
Activatein the top-right of the canvas. Trigger a test feed item in RSS, then confirm it appears in Telegram. Once it works, you're done — every new feed item now flows through automatically.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need any coding skills to set this up?
No. n8n is a visual, drag-and-drop tool. You connect your RSS and Telegram accounts, point the nodes at the right form/sheet/channel, map the fields, and activate. No code required.
What happens if my n8n workflow is off when a feed item comes in?
It depends on the source. Services like Stripe, Shopify and HubSpot retry webhook deliveries for a period, so events are processed once the workflow is back on. For the most reliable capture, run this on n8n Cloud (always online) or keep your self-hosted instance up.
Can I send each feed item to more than one place at once?
Absolutely. Branch the workflow after the Set node: connect it to multiple destination nodes so the same feed item lands in Telegram and, say, Slack or a spreadsheet simultaneously.
