There are a number of Sitebuilder data feeds that can be accessed. Some are specific to pages created from particular templates (e.g. News pages, Calendar pages etc) but some are available for any page. The easiest way to find out whether a feed type is available is simply to try it out.

To get authenticated versions of these feeds for API use, you must access the feeds over HTTPS, not HTTP. Specifying the forcebasic=true parameter will send a HTTP Basic authentication challenge if Basic auth is not specified. There is an example of doing this for the page information API in the Getting Started with the Sitebuilder API page.

Most feeds are available in RSS and Atom, for feed readers, and JSON for programming interfaces. JSON responses tend to include extra information for some APIs.

Some APIs provide options which can be added to the end of the URL - for example to include uploaded files in the table of contents API, add &includeBinary=true to the end of the URL for the API. API endpoints are listed with no options changed, i.e. their default options.
