Displaying Posted Jobs Via RSS Feed And XML Formats

  1. Support Center
  2. AvionteCORP Support
  3. KNOWLEDGE BASE

Each build in Avionté comes with an RSS feed URL. The URL will always start with https://www.mycompas.com/buildjobs_rss.aspx and end with a unique ID for your build.

The only data that we pass into your RSS feed includes:

• Job Category
• Job Title
• Job Location
• Job URL

A common use for the RSS feed is a “Newest Jobs” widget on a website’s homepage where your latest job postings can be seen by visitors without having to navigate to your Careers Page. If a visitor to the home page would like to apply for one of the jobs in that feed, they can simply click on the Job Title and they’ll be brought to the apply page of your Careers Page for that job.

The Technical Bits and Code Examples

For the technically-minded, here is an example of the code for a couple of jobs in a typical RSS feed.

Converting to XML

There is other data available if you convert the feed to non-RSS compliant XML by adding the string &format=xml to the end of the RSS feed URL. For example, if your RSS feed is this

https://www.mycompas.com/buildjobs_rss.aspx?ID=WgLAiv46hnck3aLvVfLXwg==

You can change it to standard XML by changing the URL to

https://www.mycompas.com/buildjobs_rss.aspx?ID= WgLAiv46hnck3aLvVfLXwg ==&format=xml
