00:00Hi viewers, in this video I am going to show you how to fix the unable to update your podcast's
00:07RSS feed error in Spotify for Creators. If you are trying to update the RSS feed of an existing show
00:14but Spotify keeps showing this error even though your new RSS feed is working correctly,
00:21don't worry, I will walk you through the complete solution step by step.
00:25So make sure to watch this video until then, my name is Sazam Antanoli, let's get started.
00:31So viewers, you can see I am getting this error, unable to update your podcast's RSS feed,
00:38please contact our support team. In my case, this is the link to my RSS feed,
00:45since I do not have a hosting provider, I selected other, I don't know.
00:50As you can see, my RSS feed contains the show name, Otto Intern Benny, and my latest episode
00:58titled, Taxing Cows by Size, A New Approach to Urban Congression. This shows that the RSS feed
01:07contains published podcast information. Now, let's look at my other Spotify for Creators account,
01:17where the show already exists. As you can see, the latest episode on this show has exactly the same
01:27title, Taxing Cows by Size, A New Approach to Urban Congression. This is the same episode that appears
01:36in my RSS feed, confirming that the feed is already associated with this existing Spotify show.
01:45So, when I try to use the same RSS feed while creating a new show on my other account,
01:53Spotify displays error because the feed is already connected to an existing show.
01:59However, you may notice that there is no option to delete the show directly from the Spotify for Creators
02:08settings. So, what you need to do is contact Spotify for Creators Support. First, open Google and search

02:48where you will see start messaging button. Now, you need to send a message explaining your issue to
02:57Spotify support. I have provided a message in the video description so you can copy it from there.
03:03Before contacting support, I recommend opening Notepad or Microsoft Word and posting the message there.
03:12In this message, you will need to include your show URL and your RSS feed,
03:18URL. Let's see how to find your show URL. Simply open the list and show that you want
