Triggers and actions

Perplexity AI functions as a trigger that automatically captures feed updates and initiates workflows when new content is published. When Perplexity AI detects new items in your monitored feeds, it triggers the automation to route this content directly to RSS. RSS then acts as the action component, performing advanced AI-powered analysis, summarization, or research on the Perplexity AI feed content. This trigger-action integration enables automatic generation of insights, answers to complex questions about the content, or creation of enriched summaries from Perplexity AI sources without manual intervention.

Step 1

Get your API key from Perplexity AI

Log into your Perplexity AI account and navigate to the Settings area by clicking the icon next to your username. In the left sidebar, click on API to access the connection tools. You'll need to create an API group by filling in the requested information and clicking Save. Then, go to the API Keys tab and click '+ Create Key' to generate your unique connection key.

Step 2

Add payment information to Perplexity AI

Before you can use the API connection, Perplexity AI requires you to enter payment details. This is a standard security measure to track future usage, and your card won't be charged just for setting up the connection. The payment information is stored securely and you'll only be billed based on your actual usage of the API. This step ensures that your account is ready to communicate with external services like Make.
