Open your course and select Announcements. Click on External Feeds.
Click on Add External Feed. Paste the feed URL in the Feed URL field. You can select the content that
users can view in Announcements:

select the Truncated option. To view a link to the selected article, click the Link option.
You can choose to add only posts with a specific phrase in the title. Select the Only add posts with a
specific phrase in the title checkbox. Type key words or phrases in the text box.
Click the Add Feed button.
