With the RSS Feeder, you can submit RSS feeds, public feeds and feeds that require authentication, to FirstClass Conferences, OpenText Social Workplace Communities and The Pulse or as email messages.
Since the release of OpenText Social Workplace (OTSW), the social media application for business, customers have been asking for aggregating RSS feeds into OTSW communities. Until recently, the only solutions available were online feed-to-email services, such as FeedMyInbox.
With the arrival of the all new RSS Feeder application, we now have a native solution available. With this tool, the System Administrator or OTSW Custodian can setup any number of RSS feeds, which are delivered as messages, documents or wikis to a community, conference or mailbox. The application can also deliver RSS feeds to external email addresses, which means that the RSS Feeder is a feed-to-email service by itself.
FCAS 4154 or later required.
