About RSS to JSON

Feeds are XML, and XML is awkward to work with in a modern front end. This converter reads an RSS 2.0 or Atom feed and gives you simple JSON: the title, link and description of the feed on top, and an items array with one object per entry.

The shapes of RSS and Atom differ, so the tool normalises them. Atom entries get title, link, published and summary keys, RSS items keep their own tag names such as pubDate and guid.

Frequently asked questions

Can I load a feed straight from its address?

Yes, use From URL. Many feeds do not allow requests from other sites, so when that happens we fetch the feed through our server.

Which feed versions are supported?

RSS 2.0 and Atom. Older RSS versions mostly work too when they use the same channel and item layout.

What about podcast feeds?

They are RSS with extra tags. Items include their enclosure and iTunes fields, as the tool keeps all tags of each item.

Does it follow the feed live?

No, it converts the snapshot you give it. For a live feed in your app you would fetch and convert it on your own server.
