Now every time one of my favourite channels posts I’ll know! Listing feeds in a channel So you will put this into your chosen Slack channel: Next up you want to add this to a special URL: and then add this feed in the same way as above. This is the channel ID, so you want this: UCMddDi4iCT8Rz8L0JL-bH7Q. You want the bit that come after the /channel.

The example I’m going to use is one which posts lots of Disney videos. So how do we get an RSS feed for a YouTube channel? This requires a little more work than the last example. So check sites for RSS symbols and you should be able to get a notification every time new content is pushed! Adding a YouTube RSS feed Now just type /feed followed by the URL you copied. You could think about making a separate room like #uptime or #statusfeed for example. Now all you need to do is to go to the channel you want the feed to appear. This is what you will need to subscribe to the feed. You will see something that looks like the symbol in the red box in the footer of the site:Ĭlick on the symbol and it will take you to another site, just copy the URL of the site. Go to the Heroku status site and go to the bottom of the page. Here’s how to add the RSS feed from Heroku to a Slack channel. In this example I am going to show you how to subscribe to the Heroku status feed and further down I will show you how to add an RSS feed so you can get all the posts from a YouTube channel. I use RSS feeds in Slack for a combination of things.
