Description

This workflow automates the entire lifecycle of collecting, filtering, summarizing, and delivering the most important daily news in technology, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and the digital industry. It functions as a fully autonomous editorial engine, combining dozens of RSS feeds, structured data processing, and an LLM (Google Gemini) to transform a large volume of raw articles into a concise, high–value daily briefing delivered straight to your inbox.

✅ 1. Scheduled Automation

The workflow begins with a Schedule Trigger, which runs at predefined intervals. Every execution generates a fresh briefing that reflects the most relevant news from the past 24 hours.

✅ 2. Massive Multi-Source RSS Collection

The workflow gathers content from over 25 curated RSS feeds covering:

🔐 Cybersecurity

(The Hacker News, Krebs on Security, SANS, CVE feeds, Google Cloud Threat Intelligence, Cisco Talos, etc.)

🤖 Artificial Intelligence

(Google Research, MIT News, AI News, OpenAI News)

💻 Technology & Digital Industry

(Il Sole 24 Ore, Cybersecurity360, Graham Cluley, and more)

⚙️ Nvidia Ecosystem

(Nvidia Newsroom, Nvidia Developer Blog, Nvidia Blog)

Each RSS feed is handled by a dedicated node, which ensures:

The feeds are grouped using category-specific Merge nodes (Cyber1/2/3, AI, Nvidia), enabling modular scalability.

✅ 3. Unified Feed Aggregation

All category merges feed into the Merge_All node, creating a single combined dataset of articles from every source.

✅ 4. Intelligent Filtering (last 24 hours only)

The Filter node removes:

This keeps the briefing strictly relevant to the current day.

✅ 5. Chronological Sorting

The Sort – Articles by Date node orders all remaining items in descending date order. More recent or time-sensitive news is therefore prioritized.

✅ 6. Data Normalization (JavaScript Code)

A dedicated Code node transforms all incoming items into one clean JSON object:

{
  "articles": [
    {
      "title": "...",
      "content": "...",
      "link": "...",
      "isoDate": "..."
    }
  ]
}

This standardized structure becomes the input for the LLM summarization stage.

✅ 7. AI Editorial Processing – Google Gemini

The node LLM – News Summarizer is the workflow’s editorial brain.

A complex prompt instructs Gemini to behave like the editor-in-chief of a major tech newspaper, enforcing strict rules:

Selection rules:

Relevance criteria:

Deduplication:

If multiple feeds report the same story, only one version is kept.

Output format:

Gemini must output a valid JSON object containing:

Each news item ends with a clickable HTML source link, NEVER plaintext URLs.

This step condenses dozens of articles into a polished, editorial-grade briefing.

✅ 8. HTML Newsletter Assembly (Code Node)

The Build Final Newsletter HTML node:

The output is a single item containing:

✅ 9. Automatic Email Delivery

The Send Final Digest Email (Gmail node):

The result is a fully automated Tech & AI Daily Briefing delivered with zero manual effort.

In Summary: What This Workflow Achieves

✔ Collects news from 25+ high-quality RSS sources ✔ Normalizes, filters, and sorts all items automatically ✔ Uses Google Gemini to select only the stories that truly matter ✔ Generates a coherent, readable, professional-looking HTML newsletter ✔ Sends the result via email every day
