The Native YouTube RSS XML Format

Every YouTube channel provides an official RSS XML feed. The URL format is: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID. This feed updates automatically whenever a new video is published.

Finding the Channel ID in Page Source

Visit any YouTube creator page, right-click and select “View Page Source”, then search (Cmd+F) for “channel_id” or “itemprop="channelId"”. Copy the 24-character string starting with UC and insert it into the feed URL formula.
