Poll RSS feeds occasionally

I have some RSS feeds that update infrequently, but they’re getting polled every 2 minutes by Zapier, which results in throttling of the requests.  Is there any way to set the polling interval for slower?  Or is there a specific user-agent that I could use to white-list the requests?

Thanks! I was searching for RSS, which is why I didn’t find that page.
