RSS Feed Guidelines

With Hushly and RSS Feed working together it is possible to distribute up-to-date content and add articles as Assets, that can be used in Experience and Hubs. You should be aware of these guidelines while creating RSS Feeds.

Before you Begin:

• Copy the RSS feed URL from the blog's page source to create RSS feeds in Hushly.
  
  
• Once the RSS Feed URL is created in Hushly, it cannot be changed.
  
  
• With Hushly, you will be able to pull the full blog posts, including images, into your Hub. The maximum number of posts that you can pull into Hushly is 200.
  
  
• Hushly allows you to activate and pause the RSS Feed blog post.
  
  
• If the Image thumbnail is not exposed as in the RSS Feed Blog, then it won’t be generated after syncing.
  
  

Importing and Updating RSS Feed:

• Hushly copies all the content that is provided in the RSS Feed URL and imports it into the Content Tab.
  
  
• The Original blog post must still be available in the RSS Feed to update or import other articles.
  
  
• In Hushly's RSS Feeds Page, the Last Synced column display the last successful update date and the No of entries reflects the count of Assets that got created.
  
  
• Hushly initiates an hourly job that checks the RSS feed connected to a Blog Stream for updates made or newly added posts in the feed.
  • When a new article is added to the Blog Stream, a  new asset gets created in hushly.
  • When an existing article is updated in the Blog Stream, the asset gets updated accordingly.
    
    
• If the Last Synced column is more recent on the RSS Feeds page, it is assumed that the RSS Feed is updated to the latest.
  
  
• If you delete the original blog post, the imported item will not be deleted.
