Hi everyone, I need to deploy a standard set of RSS feeds to each user’s Outlook client. Manual import of the OPML file is feasible but time-consuming, and ideally, I’d like a more automated solution. Requirements: Solution must work in Office 2016 & Office 365. We need to avoid manual processes for each user, if possible. Questions: Has anyone found a reliable way to automate RSS feed? Thanks in advance for any suggestions or guidance!

Hi @ Phearun , Welcome to our forum! Based on my research, I tried looking for relevant GPOs and scripts, but I didn't find any way to automatically import OPML files in Outlook. I'm afraid that you need to import the OPML file manually in Outlook. If the answer is helpful, please click "Accept Answer" and kindly upvote it.

Hi everyone,

I need to deploy a standard set of RSS feeds to each user’s Outlook client. Manual import of the OPML file is feasible but time-consuming, and ideally, I’d like a more automated solution.

Requirements:

Solution must work in Office 2016 & Office 365.

We need to avoid manual processes for each user, if possible.

Questions:

Has anyone found a reliable way to automate RSS feed?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or guidance!

Hi @ChristyZhang-MSFT

Thanks for your answer!

If I cannot automate adding an OPML file, are there any automated ways to add RSS feeds without using an OPML file?

Thanks,

There's no such method in Outlook to achieve your requirement, I'm afraid that you need to import the OPML file manually in Outlook.
