Roku Direct Publisher

[deturner99]

Hello, new to the platform, trying to setup Feed URL.  I get the following error:

The server returned an unsupported content type. Was expecting 'application/rss+xml', 'text/xml', 'application/xml' or 'application/json' but received 'application/vnd.apple.mpegurl'.

Anyone have advice?  I don't see any mention in documentation.  Stream URL works everywhere, but not accepted by Direct Publisher.  Hope I can get some advice and get using Roku Platform.

cheers,

Dave

Does your feed file end in .json or .xml?

I ran into this. You need to change your content type to application/json. When you upload your feed file to a server, it will sometimes change to a binary filetype.
We serve our feed on Github pages, which makes it publicly available. That allows us to keep version control as well, in case we accidentally break the file with an extra bracket somewhere.
