Resource: RSS Feed Lists for Microsoft Tech Community Sites update from May 2019

You may have noticed that Microsoft has been doing some house cleaning and organization when it comes to their technical product sites. We have compiled the RSS feed lists that you can use to stay on top of all this content on the new site using your favorite RSS reader or service.

RSS Feeds List for Microsoft Tech Community Sites

For those of you in Microsoft’s orbit, keeping an eye on all the announcements, technical product details, and other related information/discussions is challenging because of the varied locations some of this information is located. Microsoft’s TechNet and MSDN sites used to be the hubs for that activity, but everything has been migrating to the Microsoft Technical Community website. Finding information there is easy enough, but requires the use of a Microsoft Account to favorite blogs and set up email alerts for new content. That can be a cumbersome process.

On the other hand, RSS feeds let you pull the new content down to your favorite RSS reader. Unfortunately, finding RSS feeds for the Microsoft Technical Community blogs is not intuitive, but we have figured it out for you, and built out an entire RSS feed lists for those sites and placed them in a single OPML file you can download for free.

There is also a master RSS feed that surfaces the content that gets published to all the product sites on the Microsoft Technical Community. It is included in the OPML file you can freely download from ITPro Today.

Of course, you can import the entire RSS feed lists into your preferred reader, then remove the ones you do not want to follow and customize your feed content. And if you want to manually subscribe to individual product sites using the product page RSS feed links, you can access them on the Microsoft Technical Community website using this menu from any main product blog page.

This example is from the Microsoft Teams Blog:

microsoft-tech-community-rss-feed-subscribe_1_8_4


Subscribe to Individual Product Site RSS Feed Menu

Clicking that link will open the RSS feed in your browser and then you can copy and paste it from there into your favorite RSS feed lists reader or service.

Note: As new product sites are added/removed in the Microsoft Technical Community, we will update this OPML file and tag it with the date of the latest addition to the file to keep everything updated.

About the Author

Richard Hay

Senior Content Producer, IT Pro Today (Informa Tech)

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
