How to Create an RSS Feed from a Google Alert

Google Alerts RSS feed header

Should you want to eliminate all email notifications you receive from Google Alerts, you can set them up as an RSS feed and bundle them in one place. Here’s how to send your alerts directly to your feed.

You can already find and create an RSS feed for any website, but Google Alerts lets you send anything directly to a feed you already use. After you set up alerts as an RSS feed, you’ll no longer receive email notifications for that specific alert from Google.

After you’ve set up Google Alerts to send you email notifications, head over to your Alerts home page and click on the Pencil icon to edit its options.

Click the Pencil icon.

If you haven’t already, you can set up a new alert and then click “Show Options” to get here instead.

Click "Show options" if you're creating an alert for the first time.

Now, from the dropdown next to “Deliver To,” select “RSS Feed” and then click the “Update Alert” button.

Change the dropdown for "Deliver to" to "RSS feed" and click "Update alert."
