Modified on Sun, 24 Mar at 10:36 PM

Introduction:


With the Raftr platform, you have the ability to create news Posts and Events based on the content of an RSS feed. To ensure Raftr properly processes your content source, it's important to enter the correct RSS feed URL. This article will guide you through the steps to find the correct RSS feed URL for integration with Raftr.


 


Please follow the instructions below to locate the RSS feed URL and add it on Raftr:


Step 1: Open your web browser


Launch your preferred web browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari).


 


Step 2: Navigate to the website


Type the URL of the website you want to find the RSS feed for in the address bar and press Enter.


 


Step 3: Locate the RSS icon or link


Scan the website's homepage for the RSS icon. The icon typically appears as a small orange square with white curves. Alternatively, some websites may display a text link that says "RSS" or "Subscribe."


 


Step 4: Right-click on the RSS icon or link


Once you've found the RSS icon or link, right-click on it (or Control+click on Mac) to bring up the context menu.


 


Step 5: Copy the RSS feed URL


In the context menu, you should see an option that says "Copy link address" or something similar. Select this option to copy the URL of the RSS feed to your clipboard.


 


Step 6: Verify the copied URL


Open a text editor, word processor, or a new browser tab and paste the copied URL. Ensure that the URL starts with "http://" or "https://," which indicates it is a valid web address.


 


Step 7: Adding RRS link as a Source in Raftr's Admin Portal


Now that you have the RSS Link, you can proceed to add it as a source in Raftr's Admin Portal. Here's how:



  1. Log in to Raftr's Admin Portal using your credentials.
