Someone else asked a similar question about this and I tried the solution offered by hapdaniel but this didn't work for me.

What is it that would cause my Pipe to return Nulll but in the editor it is working?

Essentially my XML feeds is fetching a list of URL website addresses. I then filter this feed to strip out everything and only give me the domain name such as http://www.example.com

Here's my sample Pipe: enter image description here and the results showing Null enter image description here Many thanks

You renamed item.description to Address with the Rename operator, and then in the Create RSS operator you try to use item.description, which doesn't exist anymore.

If you simply drop the Rename operator from your pipe it should work.

Btw, instead setting Description, it will be better to set Title and Link. That way the pipe output will be clickable links.

Here's a similar pipe if it helps:

  • You are a scholar and a gent Janos, thanks. SO should honestly introduce payments of which they take micro payments. That way, if I choose to pay you for your answer, I choose a suggested amount and SO gets their tidbit. – SixfootJames Jun 02 '14 at 06:18
