Do you have a link to the documentation on this?

This is where I'm stuck: Because I'm moving away from using the raw storage.googleapis.com URL so that I can use my own subdomain (gated by CloudFlare), I can't put any redirects into the Google path.

It worked well when I was tiny and unknown. Now, I have to dig a moat and build a wall! LOL

@steven @ChadF @dave @dovydas @brianoflondon @Salty_Crayon @nathan @js

If I can't find another way, I will do that later today. Thank you!

@theDanielJLewis @ChadF @dovydas @brianoflondon @Salty_Crayon @nathan

Unfortunately, no. Google Storage Buckets set to public won't allow you to do HTTP redirects.

@steven @ChadF @dave @dovydas @brianoflondon @Salty_Crayon @nathan @js

I have found at least 7 with this problem... so not too many.

@dave @ChadF @dovydas @brianoflondon @Salty_Crayon @nathan

Oh! Hey -- I think I might have found it:

Pub Notify
get /hub/pubnotify
Notify the index that a feed has changed

Note: No API key needed for this endpoint.

Just realized that Dave is in the woods for the next week or two!

Do any of you know how I can update RSS feeds on Podcast Index without having to request it?

Can I do it with a Podcast Index API call?

@dave

Hey Dave,

Quick question -- Once upon a time, I was serving RSS feeds directly from a public Google Storage Bucket.

I have learned a ton since then (which forced me to learn CloudFlare in 2 weeks to stop a massive bot attack from Hong Kong).

Now, I have my new dynamic RSS endpoints going through CF. However, all my old "storage.googleapis.com/" RSS feed prefixes.

How do I update my feeds in Podcast Index without having to request a change for each one?

@theDanielJLewis Yeah -- so far, so good. It cut down the traffic by 80 percent, and I now have a cache sitting in front of a proxied storage bucket.

It sucked that I had to take a crash course in CDNs but it seems to be have weathered the storm.

Only have the Free Tier at the moment. Going to have to start investigating CloudFlare features to see what else I might need to turn on!

Probably the best lesson to learn when you're small!

🤠☕

@Kolomona @ChadF

Yeah -- It's my tiny hosting company, Oncetold (oncetold.com), which hosts Flowgnar.

Maybe it's a CloudFlare upsell tactic! LOL
