RSS Manager

The RSS Manager displays nodes for all the portals for which RSS feeds have been enabled. The news feeds you obtain from WebCenter Portal are context-aware, providing content only from the portal from which they originate.

The level of detail provided through a news feed depends on the feed source. For example, when you pull a news feed from a particular list, it shows recently added or revised row details and provides links to individual rows. When you click such a link, it also takes you back into your portal, with the list content displayed.

To use the RSS Manager:

  1. From the Filter list, select the RSS-enabled portals you want to view in the RSS Manager:

    • Show all to view a list of all the RSS-enabled portals to which you have access.

    • Show joined to view a list of all the RSS-enabled portals of which you are a member. This is the default selection.

    • Show public to view a list of all the RSS-enabled portals that are public.

  2. Expand a portal node to obtain both RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 news feeds.

    Note:

    The portal manager must enable RSS news feeds before you can obtain feed URLs from it. Additionally, your reader of choice must support HTTP authentication.

  3. Click the RSS or Atom icon and link to view the feed directly or to copy the feed URL:

    • Right-click the icon to copy the feed URL using your browser's copy link command.

    • Click the link to view the feed. Use your login credentials to access the feed viewer.

    Make sure you use the feed with an RSS 2.0-enabled or Atom 1.0–enabled reader.
