Data Source Feed

Retrieve, delete, and destroy data source feed information for a search appliance using the feed feed.
The Google Search Appliance supports an interface known as the “feeds interface,” which is different
from a Google Data API feed. To differentiate between these terms, the feeds interface on the search
appliance is referred to as a data source feed. For more information on data source feeds, see the Feeds
Protocol Developer’s Guide.

The following properties provide data source feed information.

Note: You can only get information about each data source feed, and whether to delete or destroy a
feed. Inserting a new data source feed is not provided in this API.
