Description Marek Hulan 2018-09-26 10:49:03 UTC
Description of problem:

As stated in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1486782#c28 the docs for RSS should be improved. If users change the feed url, they must make sure the structure of the feed is the same as in the default Satellite blog RSS feed. To see the structure, they can open https://access.redhat.com/blogs/1169563/feed and see the XML directly. It's RSS 2.0 feed, we also support Atom, but the structure of elements is the key. Atom example that works can be seen at https://theforeman.org/feed.xml

Note that changing the feed is not the main use case for this feature. The main usecase is to display news about Satellite.

The info was found at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.4-beta/html-single/administering_red_hat_satellite/#sect-Red_Hat_Satellite-Administering_Red_Hat_Satellite-Configuring_Notifications
