Example video​

The 1x1 cut of this feed's example, drawn in the Soft friendly variant with an example brand. A channel draws it in the variant it chose and in its own brand. Open the video on its own.

Use cases​

  • Council and authority announcements, the moment they are published.
  • Dates people plan around: waste collection, opening hours, public events.
  • Open data made visible: air quality, water levels, traffic or budget figures.

What it carries​

This feed carries what its template takes: the fields, what each may hold and a worked example are on the Spotlight page, the same for every feed drawn with it. A picture is always a file from your media library: media:// followed by its id or its name. Anything the template does not list is refused, and so is anything over its limit, with a 400 schema_validation error that names the field.

Ask Reelwire for the whole JSON Schema, the document this feed is checked against, without signing in:

curl "https://app.reelwire.io/v1/formats/feed/fd_100db21cf8e3"

Which template draws a feed is Reelwire's decision and can change, so a producer asks by the feed, as above, rather than by its template.

Delivery JSON​

Every event of this feed is delivered to Reelwire in this envelope. You do not send it yourself: add the feed to a channel under Ready-made feeds, and each event becomes a post on that channel. data is the document described above, left empty here: the template's delivery JSON shows one filled in.

{
  "eventId": "01M2SQMKK3G1NVFXV31DCBVB95",
  "occurredAt": "2026-09-23T07:00:00Z",
  "feedId": "fd_100db21cf8e3",
  "locale": "en",
  "data": {}
}

feedId names this feed and never changes, even when the feed is renamed. eventId is set once per event, so an event delivered twice is published once. occurredAt is when it happened, which is what the freshness limit is measured from.
