Imports an entire podcast show and its episodes from an existing RSS feed URL. This is perfect for migrating podcasts from other platforms (Buzzsprout, Anchor, Podbean, etc.) to AutoContent API.

Features:

  • Preserves ALL RSS metadata (language, copyright, categories, season/episode numbers, etc.)
  • Smart duplicate detection using GUIDs
  • Automatically imports and stores podcast artwork
  • Updates existing podcasts if they already exist
  • Generates new RSS feed URL that maintains all original metadata

Migration Workflow:

  1. Import your existing podcast from any platform using this endpoint
  2. All metadata is preserved (language, categories, episode numbers, etc.)
  3. Get a new RSS URL that you can submit to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc.
  4. Your podcast continues seamlessly with all historical data intact
