[image] How to get a feed from a password protected Discourse? Development I assume you mean RSS feeds. You can generate an API key for a user account on your site in the admin section.

If someone has it, they can do anything that the underlying user account can do. It would be much better to fetch the RSS server side using the key then only exposing the resulting feed. Also, be espec…

Hi there, jap, that would probably work, if the oauth2 basic plugin would not directly route the unauthenticated request to the Idp-Portal :frowning: Therefore the https://mycommunity.example.net/latest.rss?api-key=xyz leads me directly to login mask and the rss client spits out an error :frowning:
