Import a useful starting set
Discover pages is available on every plan. Select the URLs you need within your monitor allowance, then refine the goals and selected content of the imported monitors.
PAGEFLUXER FOR FEEDS & SITEMAPS
One source. Two useful ways to build a watch list.
Import existing URLs when you want to monitor their content. Watch the source when you want to hear about new matching entries. RSS, Atom and XML sitemaps support both paths.

MAKE THE WATCH LIST YOURS
Decide whether you need the pages or the next entry.
A feed or sitemap is a structured list of URLs. Discover pages scans a source so you can choose existing pages to import. Watch for new entries keeps checking that source and alerts when it adds a newly detected match. Importing and watching solve different jobs, and you can use both together.
Watch for the next matching entry
Pro and Business source watches detect new entries in RSS, Atom and sitemaps. Use an optional phrase or URL filter supported by the source-watch form.
Use the structure the publisher offers
RSS and Atom can carry titles and entry text. Sitemaps primarily list URLs. Review the parsed source before choosing a filter; a sitemap is not a copy of each page’s contents.
FROM PAGE TO USEFUL ALERT
Here’s how to set it up.
Add the source URL, review the parsed entries, and choose import or ongoing alerts. Customize delivery after saving a watch.
Add a public feed or sitemap URL
Supply the source you want to scan. The preview identifies RSS, Atom or sitemap content and lists the entries returned within the supported limits.
Choose import or watch
Import creates monitors for selected existing URLs within your plan allowance. A source watch keeps one monitor on the source and requires Pro or Business.
Review the entries and filter
Confirm what the preview actually includes. Use the source form’s matching fields for future entries. Titles may be missing in a sitemap, so a URL phrase can be more useful than a title phrase.
Save and choose delivery
The starting entry set is a baseline, not a batch of new-entry alerts. Later matching additions can notify your selected destinations. Refine imported page monitors separately for prices, selected text or other goals.
THE CONTEXT BEHIND THE ALERT
A bounded source watch, with clear limits.
Source parsing and sitemap traversal have limits. Large indexes may return only part of a site, so review preview warnings and choose a smaller relevant sitemap when needed. A source can remove entries or change identifiers. The alert describes what the watch first detected, not a guarantee that the entry was newly published at that moment.

Step-by-step documentation →Common questions
Are RSS, Atom and sitemaps three different paid features?
No. They are supported source formats for the same two workflows: Discover pages for importing existing URLs, and Watch for new entries for ongoing source alerts. Imports are available across plans; source watches require Pro or Business.
Will editing a sitemap lastmod value send a new-entry alert?
A new-entry watch follows entry identities and saved filters. A timestamp update to an already-known URL is not a new URL. Monitor that page separately when you want to detect changes to its actual contents.
Can I monitor the whole contents of every feed entry?
The source watch works with the entries and text supplied by the feed; it does not fetch every linked page. Create individual page monitors for content only present at those URLs.
What happens if the source stops updating?
You can enable a no-change alert on the source monitor for a chosen quiet period. It follows the watch’s matching rules and qualifies through successful checks. Source failures restart observation and are handled separately as monitor-health issues.
