Before importing your podcast, you must [connect a primary domain](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/domains-and-urls/connect-a-domain-to-hubspot) for your podcast. After importing your podcast, set up a redirect from your previous podcast hosting provider to your new, HubSpot hosted RSS feed.
Permissions required [Super Admin](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/user-management/hubspot-user-permissions-guide#super-admin) or [Podcasts](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/user-management/hubspot-user-permissions-guide#website-tools) permissions are required to use the podcasts tool.
## Import your podcast episodes
To import your podcast episodes using an RSS feed:
1. In your HubSpot account, click the [__settings icon__](https://app.hubspot.com/l/settings/user-preferences/profile) in the top navigation bar.
2. In the left sidebar menu, navigate to __Content__ > __Podcasts__.
3. In the *Podcast show* section, click the __dropdown menu__ and select __Import a podcast show.__
4. Click __Start new import__ and select __Podcasts__.

5. In the *Podcast RSS feed URL* field, enter your __podcast's RSS feed URL__. Check that your RSS feed meets the following requirements:
- The RSS feed must be unlocked.
- Dynamic ad insertion must be turned off.
- To import all episodes, the episode limit should set to max.
- Your episodes must be in mp3 format.
6. To associate your episodes with an existing podcast show, click the __Podcast show__ dropdown URL and select a __show__. To create a new show using the uploaded episodes, leave the field blank.

07. In the bottom right, click __Next__.
08. In the dialog box, review the number of episodes to be imported and the number of episodes with issues.
- Click to expand the __Episode to be imported__ or __Episode with issues__ sections to review the individual episodes.
- If the feed and episode has metadata not supported by HubSpot, it won't be imported. The episode will appear in the *Episode with issues* section. Learn more about [troubleshooting podcast episode import issues](https://knowledge.hubspot.com#troubleshoot-podcast-episode-import-issues).
09. After reviewing your episodes, at the bottom, click __Import__.

## Set up a podcast redirect
Depending on the number and size of podcast episodes you're importing, it may take some time for the import to complete. It is not necessary to remain on the import page, you can set up your redirect at a later time.
Adding a 301 redirect automatically notifies podcast directories of your new feed location, instead of manually updating each platform. This redirect instructs podcast directories to retrieve content from the new feed URL while supporting subscriber continuity.
It is recommended for both the original hosting account and redirect to stay active for 4 to 6 weeks to ensure propagation across all podcast directories and subscriber applications.
1. In your HubSpot account, click the [__settings icon__](https://app.hubspot.com/l/settings/user-preferences/profile) in the top navigation bar.
2. In the left sidebar menu, navigate to __Content__ > __Blog__.
3. In the *Current view* section, click the first __dropdown menu__ and select __Import blog.__
4. Click the __More__ dropdown menu and select __Check redirect__.

.
5. Click __Copy__ to copy your RSS feed URL.
6. Set up the redirect in the podcast platform.
7. In the bottom right, click __Check redirect__.
