Feed sections keep your content organized under one common topic, like:
- Latest
- Sports
- Politics
- Arts and culture
- Fashion
To create a feed section:
- Open Publisher Center.
- Select your publication.
- Click Google News Edit.
- Click Content settings New section.
- From the drop-down menu, select Feed.
- In the pop-up window, include the name of your feed.
- To readers, the feed name shows up as a section heading.
- Enter your RSS or Atom feed URL. It must be a valid feed. To test, use a feed validator like http://validator.w3.org/feed/.
- Under "View access," define who can find each section.
- To learn more about Access groups, go to Manage your users' access.

When you use feeds to create content sections, your articles render in AMP, if a valid AMP article is available. If AMP isn’t available, your articles render as the canonical web page version.

Update the frequency of feed content
Content from the feed updates hourly unless the publication uses WebSub. With WebSub, updates happen instantly. Each feed section contains a timestamp for when the feed was last updated.
To manually trigger an update:
- Open Publisher Center.
- Select your publication.
- Click Google News.
- In the navigation menu, click Content settings.
- On the relevant section, click Refresh.
When you update your feed, fresh articles are fetched and rendered in your sections and you get a success message on the page. If the manual trigger is unsuccessful, you get an error message that there’s a failure to fetch fresh content from the feed.
