Hey y’all!
Curious if there’s an RSS Feed option to subscribe to certain tags or categories, like announcements/news, so that our team can stay on top of news from y’all within our slack, or any app that uses rss feeds really.
I’ve found some links in the page source, but none of these seem to work. Dunno if I’m doing something wrong.
Hi @Dandie, great suggestion! I will look into possible solutions for this and share an update here.
Hey @Dandie - you can get the RSS feed for all categories or tags by appending .rss to that category or tag page. For example, to get the feed for the announcements category where the URL is https://community.canva.dev/c/announcements/ just add .rss to the end:
https://community.canva.dev/c/announcements.rss
Similarly to get the RSS feed for the News tag, add .rss to the end of that page:
https://community.canva.dev/tag/news.rss
Sadly, when I use these in my slack feed app, it says it doesn’t recognize them as rss urls. Probably because of the need to authenticate in order to view the feed properly
Hey! Great question.
Yes, many platforms do support RSS feeds by tag, category, or even specific pages, but it depends on how the site is structured. If you’re looking at a site like GitHub Discussions, Stack Overflow, or a blog/news section, sometimes the RSS feed links are embedded in the HTML but not always well-documented.
If you’ve already found some in the page source but they’re not working, try copying them into an RSS reader like Feedly or even Slack’s RSS integration to test. Also, make sure the URLs don’t require authentication—those won’t work with most RSS apps.
If the site doesn’t officially support RSS by tag/category, you can sometimes use third-party services like RSS.app or Feed43 to create custom feeds.
Let me know which site you’re trying to pull from—I might be able to help more specifically!
