RSS Feed
The component for importing content and news published from external sources into SharePoint Online.
What is RSS Feed?
This web part transforms your intranet into the central hub for receiving news from different websites and blogs. This new component enables seamless integration of a website's feed within the intranet. Users have the flexibility to showcase news from various outlets or blogs. It's an engaging way to keep everyone updated by consolidating both internal and external company news in one accessible location.
