Feature request: add RSS as feed format

Open sekjal opened this issue 11 years ago • 2 comments

Currently, we can access channel information in JSON, CSV and XML. Having RSS as an additional option would increase the interoperability of Thingspeak with solutions like IFTTT. Each channel would be an RSS channel, and each data entry an item. The data could be placed in the description in a standard format (JSON-like), and the title set as a composite of the timestamp and other data.

If the Thingspeak community thinks this is a good idea for a new feature, I'd be happy to start coding it up.

I like the idea. I'd also like to see it as an Atom feed, maybe even OData compatible?
