How to Scrape RSS Feed — Free No-Code Guide (2026)

#bulk #webscraping #api #python

If you need to pull RSS Feed data at scale and there's no clean official API, this guide shows how to export it to JSON, CSV or Excel in a couple of minutes — with no scraping code to maintain.

We'll use the RSS Feed Reader - Bulk RSS & Atom Feed Parser, a hosted scraper on the Apify platform. You only need a free Apify token — no RSS Feed login, no proxies, no reverse-engineering.

What data you get

Each run returns structured records with fields like:

feedTitle
title
link
pubDate
author
categories
contentSnippet
feedUrl
guid
content
enclosureUrl
scrapedAt

Results are paginated automatically — you can pull thousands of rows per run and export them as JSON, CSV, Excel, JSONL or XML.

Option 1 — No code (Apify Console)

Open the actor: https://apify.com/logiover/bulk-rss-feed-reader
Click Try for free.
Leave the input empty for a broad sample, or set the fields below.
Run it, then Export the dataset as CSV/JSON/Excel.

Option 2 — Node.js

npm install bulk-rss-feed-reader

const scrape = require("bulk-rss-feed-reader");

(async () => {
  const items = await scrape({}, { token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
  console.log(items.length, "results");
  console.log(items[0]);
})();

Option 3 — Python

pip install bulk-rss-feed-reader

from bulk_rss_feed_reader import scrape

items = scrape({}, token="YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
print(len(items), "results")
print(items[0])
