Developer / Documentation / Syndication

Netlog syndicates several feeds in the RSS 2.0 and iCal formats. We've got feeds with cross-site content, feeds with the public content of a profile and feeds with personal content of a profile.

Netlog feeds

These are the available feeds with general Netlog data. They're always available.

Public feeds of profiles

These are the available feeds with public data from a certain profile. These feeds won't be available when a profile chose not to open up his profile for everyone (this setting can be found in his privacy settings). In the URL's below, replace {nickname} with a profile's nickname.

Personal feeds of profiles

These are the available feeds with personal data from a certain profile. Since these feeds contain personal data they need an authorization key. This key is unique for each profile/feed combination. A user can reset authorization keys in his privacy settings. In the URL's below, replace {profileURL} with the URL to a user's profile and {authKey} with the specific authorization key.
