XML Data Feeds at PAS

There are now several data feeds that you can use to integrate news and promotions on your site, or allow your members to read your site news through their feed aggregator.

The PAS system will automatically inject the token {{ rss_news_link }} into the HEAD of your site. You will need to remove this from layout/layout.html page if you don’t want an RSS link displayed on your site.

Rakeback News RSS Feed

The rakeback news RSS feed aggregates your news posts and syndicates them for easy reading through a feed reader:

:**yourdomain.com/feeds/rakeback-news.rss**

Poker Rooms XML Feed

The XML feeds for poker rooms are currently provided on a per-room basis. They are located at:

**yourdomain.com/feeds/poker_rooms/SLUG.xml**

Where SLUG should be replaced by one of the poker room slugs (detailed below). In the following screenshot, Cake Poker is used, so your URL would read:

**yourdomain.com/feeds/poker_rooms/cake-poker.xml**

This would result in an XML feed that looks like this:

Example: http://www.raketracker.com/feeds/poker_rooms/cake-poker.xml

GET Parameters

Within the promotions feed you can also use two GET parameters to retrieve and display more specific information:

type: this can be rake_chase or rake_race. It defaults to rake_race if blank or an invalid parameter is called.

archived: this can be set to either 1 or 0. It defaults to 0 (false) if blank or an invalid parameter is called.

Example: http://www.raketracker.com/feeds/promotions/ft.xml?type=rake_race&archived=1

In the above example, you are retrieving the Full Tilt rake chase promo with archived content from the previous month.
