BusyBox to NPR integrations

Automate your workflows between BusyBox and NPR with IFTTT.

Create your own BusyBox and NPR workflow

Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.

3 triggers, queries, and actions

Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
The Trigger fires every time a new story is published on NPR in the selected category, program, or topic.

History of story published

An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
