Navigate to the Sites > Blogs. Here you can find the blogs in your CRM.
Next, look for the "Settings" section in your blog dashboard. A gear or cogwheel icon usually represents it.
Locate the RSS Feed Option
Within the Settings, click the RSS option to set up your RSS feed.
Adjust RSS Feed Settings
In the RSS Feed settings, If you have 2 or more blogs you can use the dropdown to choose which blog you want the RSS feed to show up, you can also customize various parameters, including, the number of blog posts to include in the RSS feed.
Click the "Load blog content in RSS feed" to add your blog content to the RSS feed. Your RSS feed is typically generated automatically once you save the settings. It will have a URL like https://rss-link.com/feed. You can use this URL to subscribe to your blog's RSS feed or share it with others.
