RSS feed to Twitter, Post Tweet, My Problem? or Wish List NEED?

Posted on by seekandfind

After using this product almost a year! I STILL CANNOT FIND OUT how to go from RSS --> to Twitter and

BE ABLE TO SEE AND POST THE ORIGINAL AUTHORS tweet name with the @ symbol.

The RSS feeds, from various sources, do provide the author, but I can't see HOW to include that on my flow and see it.

The Primary feed option only gives the feed title/url and NOT THE AUTHOR.

I know the author is provided in the rss feeds. I see it. When I use the same rss feed on Integromat, Zapier, IFTTT, it parses it out and I can use it there with those products.

HELP? What am I missing? I want to give credit to the original author as a RT retweet. Then when people respond, the response goes back to the original tweeter also.

I can't figure out how to do it on Microsoft Flow.

Hi @seekandfind

You have already posted this here - https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Flow-Discussion/RSS-feed-to-Twitter-Post-Tweet-My-Problem-or-Wish-List-NEED/m-p/244264#M21433

There is no need to re post.

I am awaiting your reply as I have asked 2 questions in the other thread.

I have asked:

1) Can you post 1 or 2 of these feed urls in this thread please?

You had said (message 3 of original post):

"So I added 6 feeds right here**** but I am getting error - Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and submit the message when you are satisfied."

I have asked:

2) Can you post a screen grab of the whole Flow and also the error and the feed you are using to get that error so I can recreate?

If you are able to post this information, I or another community member will be happy to assist. I personally just can't take this any further without additinal information.

Does that make sense?

Please see https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Flow-Discussion/How-to-write-a-good-forum-post/m-p/234964 for guidance.

Thanks, Alan

I answered both of those questions yesterday.
1.1) Can you post 1 or 2 of these feed urls in this thread please? I tried . I posted 6 feeds and they were rejected by this forum as html. I posted the exact error I got in my post to you.

2. 2) Can you post a screen grab of the whole Flow and also the error and the feed you are using to get that error so I can recreate?

I get no error. I chose or used template of RSS - > twitter and added RSS field. In the Twitter box I put Primary Feed.

No author option. Yet those same 50 - 100 feeds I use on other platforms and they can parse out the author so that I can put either an @ sign in front of their screen name or the @ sign is supplied in some rss feeds.
