YouTube RSS Feed Finder – Get Any Channel Feed

What is a YouTube RSS feed and how do I get it?

Every YouTube channel has a public RSS feed of its latest videos at https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID. Paste a channel URL, @handle, channel ID, or a video from the channel above, and this tool resolves the channel ID and builds the feed URL for you. It returns the channel's most recent 15 uploads as plain XML.

YouTube stopped surfacing the RSS link in the interface years ago, but the feeds still work. They are handy for feed readers, automation tools like Zapier or Make, Slack or Discord notifications, and any app that reads RSS. The only tricky part is getting the channel ID, which is exactly what this tool does from whatever you paste.

Frequently asked questions

Does YouTube still support RSS feeds?

Yes. YouTube no longer shows the RSS link in its interface, but every channel still has a working public feed at youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID. It returns the channel's latest 15 videos as XML.

How do I get the RSS feed for a YouTube channel?

Paste the channel's URL, its @handle, its channel ID, or any video link from the channel into the tool above. It resolves the channel ID and builds the feed URL you can drop into any reader or automation.

Can I get an RSS feed for a playlist?

Yes. A playlist feed uses a different URL: youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=PLAYLIST_ID. This tool builds the channel feed; for a playlist, swap channel_id for the playlist_id.

Is this tool free, and do I need an account?

It is completely free with no account and no API key. Paste a channel and get its feed URL.
