Create a Soundcloud Feeds source

This article outlines how to configure a Soundcloud Feeds source in Finalsite Feeds, including how to identify the correct username from a Soundcloud profile URL and what content is displayed.

💡Quick answers

  • Where do districts and schools select their feed? The Feeds module opens to the Feeds dashboard, which lists all available feeds. Click the name of a feed to open the feeds configuration screen.
  • What is required to add a Soundcloud source? The username from the Soundcloud profile URL. No account connection is required.
  • What content is displayed? All tracks uploaded by that user to their Soundcloud profile.

Step 1: Navigate to the Feeds module

In Composer, open the module menu on the left sidebar and select Feeds.

Feeds option in the Composer module menu

Landing on the Feeds dashboard, select the individual district or school feed that needs configuration or a new source added.

To add a new source directly from the dashboard, click the + in the Source column. Alternatively, click the three-dot menu next to the Edit button on the far right.

Once inside the feeds configuration screen, click the red + Add New Source button.

Either path opens the Add a Social Media Source window. Learn about all of the source options in the article, "What is a source."

  • Enter the username into the source field and save. Feeds will display all tracks uploaded to that Soundcloud profile.
