How do I automate content using the tchop RSS Feed Integration?

Our platform makes it easy to import content - manually or automatically.



With our rss feed integration - https://tchop.io/integrations - you can set up regular content updates from any website to publish all new content automatically to your chosen mix.

If you are already a tchop user - from the editorial dashboard left-side navigations, go to "Integrations".

You can write your own integration, or use one of our standard integrations that covers a lot of content possibilities and really boosts efficiency.

Log into your app and select the channel you wish to make the integration connection. Or go directly here - https://rss.tchop.io/
