Hello. I need to display password protected Discourse feed on the external site. How to do that? Other sites suggest using this structure http://[username]:[password]@[domain]/[path] But for Discourse it doesn’t work. By the way, the external site that I want to show the feed is a wordpress page.…

I assume you mean RSS feeds. You can generate an API key for a user account on your site in the admin section. Then you can just append it to any URL like so: http://meta.discourse.org/latest.rss?api_key=KEYHERE I should note there are security issues with making that api key visible to users. If…

Great answer, eviltrout. Thank you very much :smile:

We are having the issue that the RSS feeds do not work with an api_key if the categories have read restrictions, even if the api_key is valid for a user that should be able to access the category. Is this a bug or by design?

[图片] dansingerman: Is this a bug or by design? That sounds like a bug to me. The API key should function as the user associated with it. Are you passing the correct username through too?

With the new fix, I am able to view restricted categories in the RSS feed at … http://myserver.example.com/c/my_category.rss?api_key=my_api_key but Latest only shows public topics in the RSS feed http://myserver.example.com/latest.rss?api_key=my_api_key Is this still unresolved or am I missing …

Don’t api keys need to be in the headers now @sam ?

Yes they do! @blake any thoughts about how people will do private RSS feeds in the current world. Do browsers/rss feed things support custom headers for auth? This is a pretty rare use case, but would be nice if we had a workaround.

The only auth related thing to rss is support for url based basic auth like https://user:password@www.example.com (which we don’t have support for) or something like what we currently support with api_key & api_username in the url. While it would have been nice to completely retire url based auth I…
