1. Go to the dashboard and click the 'Feed Builder' link located below the list of spaces. This will display a form as shown below.
2. Check the boxes to select one or more content types you want to include in your feed:
   • 'Pages' – Check this box if you want to know when a page is added or updated. You can also include the 'Comments' and/or 'Attachments' on pages. Even if you do not select 'Pages', you can still choose to receive page comments or attachments in your feed.
     Tip: You can build separate feeds, one for pages only and one that includes comments as well. This allows you to monitor only pages if you are short of time, and to read the comments when you have more time.
   • 'Blog Posts' – Check this box if you want to know when a blog post is added or updated. You can also include the 'Comments' and/or 'Attachments' on blog posts. Even if you do not select 'Blog Posts', you can still choose to receive comments or attachments in your feed.
   • 'Mail' – Check this box if you want to know when the email archive is updated. (See the overview of mail archives in Confluence.)
3. Select one or more spaces from the list. Press Ctrl + left mouse button to select multiple spaces.
4. Enter a name for your RSS feed, such as 'My Confluence feed' or 'Blog posts from the staff space'.
5. If you want to filter your RSS feed using a label, enter one or more labels separated by spaces or commas. If you enter more than one label, Confluence will return all content (of the selected types) that matches one or more of the labels.
   Hint: See the hint below about using labels to customise your feeds.
6. Choose whether to sort items in your RSS feed by the date they were originally created or the date they were last updated.
7. Specify the feed size and time period:
   • You can leave the default values as 'Limit to 10 items' and 'Within the last 5 days'.
   • Otherwise, specify the number of items you want Confluence to return in your feed and how far in back in time you want Confluence to look.
8. If you have chosen to include pages, specify whether your RSS feed should display the entire page ('Content'), or a comparison between the original and the updated content ('Diff').
9. Click 'Create'.
10. This will take you to a new screen. Drag or copy the link into your RSS reader. The feed URL is linked to the words 'Drag or copy this link to your RSS reader'.

To let your newsreader log into Confluence, you can add your username and password to the feed URL. But please note that if you do this, anyone can read your password if they have access to your RSS newsreader configuration or if they see the feed URL.
