RSS feeds allow you to track updates to content within Confluence. You will need an RSS newsreader to subscribe to them.

You can create a customised RSS feed using the RSS Feed Builder ((tick) Recommended) or subscribe to one of the pre-specified feeds generated by Confluence.

What would you like to do?

  • Subscribe to pre-specified RSS feeds — generate an RSS feed automatically in a minimal number of steps.

    To have your newsreader log into Confluence, you can append ?os_username=yourusername&os_password=yourpassword to the URL of the feed you are trying to retrieve. Note, however, that this means someone with access to your RSS newsreader configuration can read your password.
