Following the report of the newly detected outburst of the transient XTE J1728-295 (possibly IGR J17285-2922 detected by INTEGRAL) in the RXTE PCA bulge scans (ATel #2823), we requested a Swift ToO observation to follow up the source based on the position given by the RXTE PCA best fit results (ATel #2823). The observation was performed on 2010-08-30 14:00:46 (UT) for about 1 ks. We found only one bright source in the Swift XRT field of view.
