Importing Your Podcast Using an RSS Feed

Just need to import a one episode from a feed? See our article on importing individual episodes.

Bring your existing podcast into your SupaPass website and app without uploading every episode again. Import your RSS feed to give your audience a place to browse and listen, while your podcast host continues to manage the original feed.

Before You Start (Important)

  • Your podcast content will continue to be managed by your podcast host.

  • SupaPass syncs automatically with your RSS feed.

How to Import a Podcast RSS Feed

Step 1: Open RSS Import

  • Go to Content → RSS Import from the left-hand menu.

Step 2: Enter Your Podcast

You can either:

  • Enter the podcast name (we’ll automatically find the feed), or

  • Paste the RSS feed URL directly.

Step 3: Choose Audio or Video (Required)

  • Select whether your podcast is Audio or Video.

⚠️ Important: Selecting the wrong format can cause display and playback issues.

Step 4: Select Products (Access Control)

  • Choose which Products can access the podcast.

  • For most podcasts, we recommend:

    • Free without login

    • Free with login

    • If the podcast lives behind a paywall, then choose one of your paid products.

Good to know 👉 You can add or change Products later.

Step 5: Mark as Ready to Publish

  • Tick the Ready to Publish checkbox.

Step 6: Import

  • Click Import.

  • The podcast and episodes will be imported within seconds.

  • You’ll be redirected to the newly created content list.

That’s it — your podcast is now imported 🎉

How Updates Work (Very Important)

  • Your podcast automatically updates and learns how often to this - read more about it in this help article with frequently asked questions

  • Your imported RSS content can be edited directly in SupaPass and will not effect the original source. This gives you a unique way of updating episode descriptions and titles specific for your own audience on your app and website.

Images & SSL Requirement

To avoid image import issues:

  • Your RSS feed must use SSL (https).

  • All images referenced in the feed must also be hosted on secure (https) URLs.

  • Only the first image will be imported.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I find analytics for my RSS podcast?

Use your podcast host’s reports for the downloads and listening statistics it provides. RSS-imported episodes that remain hosted by your podcast provider do not appear in the SupaPass Activity tab.

If you have connected and configured Google Analytics, you can also see visits to your podcast and episode pages on your SupaPass website. Page visits measure website traffic, rather than listening activity.
