# Overview

## The News tracker lets users subscribe to and follow their favorite information channels.

---

The **News tracker** allows journalists to create feeds and follow their preferred news outlets, video, and social media channels *without leaving* the Sportal365 CMS.

To create a news tracker feed, select a **News tracker** from the left sidebar andenter a title for your feed. For example, Football.You can create as many feeds as you want and each feed can contain up to 50 sources.

![1-Aug-12-2022-10-38-16-99-AM](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1-Aug-12-2022-10-38-16-99-AM.png?width=688&name=1-Aug-12-2022-10-38-16-99-AM.png)

Each feed has a name and a list of sources. A source is any of the following:

- RSS (XML) feed
- YouTube channel
- Twitter/X account
- Instagram account
  
  **Note:** Availability of Twitter/X and Instagram as sources may vary depending on current third-party API access. Verify that these integrations are active in your Sportal365 account before use.

To add a source, enter a **Location** and then save it. When you do that, the system will check the validity of the source (URL) and if the source is valid, the name will be auto-filled; you can change the name later if you wish. In case the source is invalid–you will see an error message.

Once you add sources to your **News tracker**, your feed will appear as a sidebar on the right side of your screen.
