Mashables and Mashups : Mashables : Connect Information Sources as Mashables : Register Syndicated Feeds (RSS/Atom)
Register Syndicated Feeds (RSS/Atom)
For syndicated feeds that use SSL endpoint security, a Business Analytics administrator must configure Business Analytics for SSL and digital certificates before you register the feed.
If normalization is enabled forBusiness Analytics to one of the RSS or Atom web feed standards, you can only register syndicated feeds that use a version of that standard. Register feeds in the alternate format as REST web services.
Note:  
In earlier releases, feed normalization was enabled by default. Normalization is disabled, butBusiness Analytics administrators can turn this on if desired.
To register synicated feeds

Business Analytics validates the URL, registers the mashable and turns this mashable information source on (by default). Then, either:
*Grant permissions to run this mashable to other users and groups:
*Choose the mashable-wide Service >> mashable name permissions section to grant run permissions to all operations. Or expand a specific Operation >> operation name section to grant run permissions for just that operation.
*Find Users and Groups for Permissions or Choose Business Analytics Built-In Groups for Permissions.
*Click on a user or group in the Search result list to add them to the list of Principals with permissions.
*Save the permissions once the list is complete.
*Or skip permissions for now and clickFinish.
To allow other users to work with this mashable, you must grant run permissions at a later time.
Note:  
Some groups or users may already be listed as Principals with permissions. These users and groups have been defined by a Business Analytics administrator to grant permission automatically.
You can open the artifact page for this new mashable to run the mashable, add views, take snapshots, create basic apps based on this mashable, edit the mashable, turn it off or grant permissions to other users to work with it.
