Feed Configuration
The Feeds section in TAP is where you see every integration tied to your account — API, XML, widget, and affiliate-link feeds — and where you tune what content each feed receives.
The Feed List
Open Feeds in the left navigation to see all of your feeds at a glance.
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Feed Name | Your label for the feed (e.g. GinoPublish_API) |
| Feed Type | API, XML, Widget, or AFF_LINK |
| Pricing | Dynamic or a fixed CPC (e.g. $0.03). See Revenue Models. |
| Job Count | Estimated jobs currently in the feed |
| Last Download | For XML feeds, when the feed was most recently fetched |
| MTD Earnings | Month-to-date earnings for this feed |
| Quality | Quality Score indicator. See Quality Score. |
Feeds are grouped into Live and Inactive sections.
Feed Details
Click a feed to open its details page. The Details tab is where configuration happens.
Top — Feed Metadata
Read-only metadata about the feed:
- Feed ID — your numeric publisher ID
- Name — your label
- Type — API / XML / Widget / Affiliate Link
- Status —
LIVEorARCHIVED - Created — when the feed was provisioned
- Category — general publisher classification (not the same as api sub-categories)
- Click Expiration — how long click URLs stay valid (typically 24h)
- Quality — current Quality Score for this feed
Feed URL
The Feed URL field shows your live integration URL with credentials embedded — a Search API URL for API feeds, a download URL for XML feeds, and so on. The Copy button copies it; the Search API Documentation button links to the full Search API spec for API feeds.
The URL contains your id and pass. Don't expose it in client-side code or commit it to a public repository.
Job Filters
This is where you control which jobs flow through the feed.
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Estimated Jobs | Live count of jobs currently matching your filter set. This is a rough estimate and may not work for every filter. |
| Job Boards Filter | Include or exclude jobs that are classified as coming from a Job Board |
| Talroo Apply Filter | Include or exclude jobs that use Talroo Easy Apply |
| Categories | Add or remove jobs classified by industry. The chips show your current category list. |
| Advertisers | Exclude or include specific advertisers |
| Companies | Exclude or include specific company names |
| Job Types | Use to filter on types like Full Time or Part time jobs |
| States | Filter out jobs by location |
| Exclude Campaigns | Filter out jobs belonging to an advertiser's sub-group |
Changes save automatically after 3 seconds (look for the "Last edit: N seconds ago" indicator at the top right).
If your audience converts well on healthcare jobs but poorly on hospitality, filtering Categories accordingly will lift Quality Score and EPC. Apply the same logic to advertisers and companies if you have signal there.
XML Settings
XML feeds have a few extra controls below the Job Filters that govern how the feed file is generated.
| Setting | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Frequency | How often Talroo regenerates your XML feed (e.g. Every 3 hours). More frequent importing means fewer stale and expired click issues — see Click Validation. |
| Max Entries Per File | Cap on how many job entries each feed file contains. 0 means no per-file cap; large feeds will still be split into multiple part files. |
| Job Limit | Cap on total jobs across the whole feed. Useful if your downstream system can only ingest a fixed number. |
| EPC Floor (cents) | Excludes jobs paying below this CPC. Keeps low-payout jobs out of your feed when you have a minimum-revenue threshold. |
| EPC Ceiling (cents) | Excludes jobs paying above this CPC. Rarely needed. |
| One Zip Per City | When enabled, only one job per city is included rather than duplicates across multiple zip codes in the same city. |
| Limit Zip Count | When enabled, caps the number of unique zip codes per location in the feed. |
Tabs Inside a Feed
Each feed page also has:
- Details — the configuration view above
- Analytics — per-feed metrics (see Analytics)
- Earnings Report — earnings broken out for this feed
- Search Tester (basic) — try sample queries against your filtered feed
