How do I add an external RSS feed to an announcement as an instructor?
RSS, also known as Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication, is a web feed format that publishes frequently updated information from external websites such as blogs, news headlines, audio, and video. RSS feeds benefit users who want to receive timely updates from favorite websites or to aggregate data from many sites.
You can add an external RSS feed to a course announcement. Please note that when you create the RSS feed, only future feed content will be pulled into the announcement; it will not pull any existing or backdated content.
Note: Adding an RSS feed will create an announcement for every new item added to that feed. Users that have chosen to be notified of new announcements in their Canvas notification preferences may see a substantial increase in the amount of notifications they receive.
