How to Use RSS Feed Validator
How to Use RSS Feed Validator
Step 1: Paste Your Feed XML
Paste your RSS or Atom feed XML into the editor. The tool validates in real-time as you type.
Step 2: View Validation Results
The validator detects feed type and checks:
- Feed Type - RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0, or Atom 1.0
- Required Fields - All mandatory channel/feed fields
- Optional Fields - Recommended fields for best compatibility
- Entry Count - Number of items or entries in the feed
Step 3: Review Field Checks
Each field shows one of three states:
- Green check - Field is present
- Red X - Required field is missing (validation error)
- Gray dash - Optional field is absent (informational only)
Step 4: Check Entry Previews
