Export & Integration

Your personalized Scour feed is available as a standard RSS feed. Copy the URL below and paste it into your favorite feed reader.

https://scour.ing/@username/rss.xml

Scour also supports Atom (/atom.xml) and JSON Feed (/feed.json) formats. Just swap the extension in any feed URL.

Customize Your Feed

You can customize your Scour feed with the following query parameters:

ParameterValuesDescription
t1h, 1d, 1w, 1mTime frame: past hour, day, week, or month
all_feedstrue / falseSearch all sources or just your subscriptions
show_seentrue / falseInclude posts you've already seen

For example, /@username/rss.xml?t=1d&all_feeds=true will give you today's posts from all sources.

Interactive Elements

Your feed includes reaction links (Love, Like, Dislike) in each post, so you can rate content directly from your RSS reader.

Scour also includes interest and feed recommendations so you can keep tailoring your feed to find better content.

Feeds Everywhere

Beyond your main feed, Scour offers these other types of feeds:

FeedURL Pattern
Per-interest feed/@username/interests/{interest}/rss.xml
Your likes/@username/likes/rss.xml
Another user's feed/@otherperson/rss.xml
Another user's likes/@otherperson/likes/rss.xml
Popular posts/posts/popular/rss.xml
Scour changelog/changelog/rss.xml

You can browse other users' pages to find other users whose feeds or likes you might want to subscribe to.

OPML Import & Export

OPML is the standard format for transferring feed subscriptions between RSS readers. Scour supports both importing and exporting OPML files.

Import Feeds

Coming from another RSS reader? You can import your existing subscriptions by uploading an OPML file. Most readers (Feedly, Inoreader, NetNewsWire, etc.) let you export your subscriptions as OPML.

Export Your Interest Feeds

You can export all your interest-specific feeds as an OPML file. This lets you import each interest as a separate feed in your reader, so you can organize by topic.

Export Your Feed Subscriptions

Download all the feeds you're subscribed to as an OPML file, which you can then import into any other RSS reader.

You can also find these options on your Feeds and Interests pages.
