Make an RSS integration
We'd like to pull RSS feeds into our Autopilot emails so our subscribers can get blog posts sent via email.
You can pull content from an RSS feed into an email using Liquid: https://support.autopilothq.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007000691-Personalize-emails-with-Liquid-RSS-and-JSON-fetch-Beta-. This functionality is currently in early access so please contact our support team for it to be enabled on your account. The reason I’m not updating the status of this suggestion at this time is because there is not yet functionality for triggering an email when new content is received via RSS (i.e. some kind of RSS trigger).

Yeah, actually the integration with Zapier should really be improved too, because all you can do create new contacts and lists etc.
Zapier already has RSS, so if you had a Zapier trigger setup, one could fire off an email or kickoff anything else... and not just for RSS, but for any of the other Zapier integrations.
Honestly, AP would be massively extended by just allowing the Zapier integration to be a trigger.

We really need a good email automation tool for our growth blog www.ventureworks.co.uk/growth-blog that works with lead generation funnels. Hoping Autopilot will work on this soon!

Would be a great feature indeed! We would love to move all of our email into Autopilot but RSS is a deal breaker at the moment.

I'm currently testing Autopilot for our clients and agency, not having an RSS feed function is a deal breaker.

Agreed. An RSS-to-email feature would be a big incentive for us to stick with Autopilot long-term. In our attempts to automate our marketing as much as possible, this feature would be a great benefit. Without it, we're left manually crafting every email we want to send---even if that content is simply being cut-and-pasted from our blog/news feed.

This feature just came up again for us. RSS feed functionality would be great for us and for our clients.

We would love to move to AutoPilot however without RSS-to-Email functionality this would be a challenge for us. Daily we send a email newsletter, generated from a RSS feed on our website to our global member base of 35,000 professionals. Key requirements, being able to populate a given email template with 10 news stories, autoscheduling the campaign to pull from the feed then send and populate the subject line from the headline of the first article. I was originally told this was in production and was disheartened to hear that it was not. This would be a great feature to have and in my view is not supported by enough ESP's nor marketing automation platforms.

If you do this. Please make the design and lay out of integration very flexible.
