Fetch RSS feed items

Retrieves a list of items from an external RSS feed by URL. Use this query to pull syndicated content into your learning instance — for example, to display blog posts, news articles, or announcements sourced from an RSS feed. The API fetches and parses the remote feed at request time, returning each item's metadata including title, author, description, categories, image, link, and publication date.

feedUrl	String!	Yes	The fully qualified URL of the RSS feed to fetch and parse. Must be a publicly accessible RSS or Atom feed endpoint.

The feed is fetched from the remote URL at request time. Availability and response time depend on the external feed's uptime and latency. Ensure the feed URL is publicly accessible from the server.
