Monitor Page Changes via RSS Feeds

Last updated: 5 March, 20262 min read

PageCrawl can generate RSS feeds for your monitored pages, allowing you to follow detected changes from any RSS reader or automation tool.

How RSS Feeds Work

Each RSS feed has a unique URL with an access code. When a monitored page detects a change, the feed is updated with the new entry. Feeds follow the Atom format and can be consumed by any standard RSS reader.

You can create feeds for:

  • A specific page - Track changes on a single monitored page
  • All pages in a workspace - Get a combined feed of all changes across the workspace

Setting Up an RSS Feed

  1. Go to Account Preferences > RSS Feeds
  2. Click Create Feed
  3. Optionally select a specific page (leave empty for all pages in the workspace)
  4. Copy the generated feed URL

The feed URL contains a unique access code, so anyone with the link can view the feed without logging in. Keep feed URLs private if the monitored content is sensitive.

Using Your Feed

Add the feed URL to any RSS-compatible tool:

Tool Type Examples
RSS readers Feedly, Inoreader, NewsBlur
Automation platforms n8n, Zapier, Make
Dashboards Custom widgets, internal portals
Browser extensions RSS reader extensions for Chrome or Firefox

Managing Feeds

Action How
List feeds Go to Account Preferences > RSS Feeds
Create feed Click Create Feed and select options

API access GET /api/rss, POST /api/rss, DELETE /api/rss/{id}
