# Import from ReleaseNotes.io

> Bring your ReleaseNotes.io posts into Onset from your public RSS feed.

The ReleaseNotes.io importer reads your public RSS feed. No API key needed, but it also means Onset only sees what's publicly visible.

<Warning>
  This importer is in **beta**. Review the imported releases before pointing customers at your new page.
</Warning>

## What you'll need

Your **ReleaseNotes.io URL**, e.g. `yourcompany.releasenotes.io`.

Before starting, confirm the feed is reachable by opening `https://yourcompany.releasenotes.io/feed` in a browser. If that returns posts, the import will work.

## Run the import

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Imports">
    Go to **Settings → Workspace → Import**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start the ReleaseNotes.io import">
    Find **ReleaseNotes.io Import** in the list and click **Start import**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter your URL">
    Type the host only, e.g. `yourcompany.releasenotes.io`. The `https://` is added for you.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Wait for the email">
    The import runs in the background. Onset emails you when it's finished, so you don't need to keep the tab open.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What comes across

|                       |                                                                                 |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Title and content** | Post HTML is converted into the Onset editor format.                            |
| **Images**            | Re-uploaded to Onset, so they keep working after you shut down ReleaseNotes.io. |
| **Dates**             | The original publish date becomes the release date.                             |
| **Status**            | Everything in the feed arrives published and public.                            |
| **URLs**              | The slug from the ReleaseNotes.io post URL is reused, so paths carry over.      |

Not imported: drafts and anything not in the public feed, labels, projects, reactions, feedback, and your ReleaseNotes.io audience. [Import subscribers separately](/guides/subscribers/import) from a CSV.

## Feed pagination

The RSS feed serves about 10 posts per page, and Onset walks through the pages until it runs out. Long histories take longer, and the importer stops at 1,000 releases. If you have more than that, email [support@onset.io](mailto:support@onset.io) before you start.

## Re-running the import

Safe. Releases are matched on their slug, and anything already in your workspace is skipped rather than duplicated. If a first pass only caught part of your history, run it again.

## Next steps

See [After importing](/guides/releases/import#after-importing) for what's worth cleaning up before you announce the move.
