Really Simple Discovery

Really Simple Discovery

Really Simple Discovery (RSD) is an XML format and a publishing convention for making services exposed by blog, or other web software, discoverable by client software.It is a way to reduce the information required to set up editing/blogging software to three well known elements:
* Username,
* Password, and
* Homepage URL.Any other critical settings should either be defined in the RSD file related to the blog, or discoverable using the information provided.

History

RSD was proposed by Daniel Berlinger in the [http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/blogs/gems/tech/rsd.html Really Simple Discoverability 1.0] .

Format

To make use of RSD, the owner of a site places a link tag in the head section of the homepage which indicates the location of the RSD file. An example:

If this tag is missing or the file is not found, clients should look in the default location which is a file named rsd.xml in the webroot. For example:

http://example.com/rsd.xml
