Adding the RSS service to your assets
In order to use the RSS service, it must be installed by a customer administrator.
Important: There is a new version of the RSS Feed app available which can display images. Updating the RSS content service in existing assets in the configuration screen will cause any modified CSS settings to be reset. All new instances of the RSS content service will use the newest version of the RSS Feed app.
