Redistributing Podcast Information

For all podcasts hosted through the Drupal site, there is a JSON file that acts as the feed for information.

The JSON feed may be found here: https://eclkc.ohs.acf.hhs.gov/eclkc-feed.json

Using the JSON Feed

To access all ECLKC podcasts, set the Resource Type to "Podcast." 

To access a specific podcast, you must have a Resource Type of "Podcast" and the name of the series set to filter out the other podcasts. Individual podcasts within a series will be delivered as "Podcast: Series Title" (e.g., Podcast: Home Visitor Series).

Each individual podcast will include the following information, available within the JSON file:

  • Language
  • Version
  • Homepage URL
  • Feed URL
  • Favicon image
  • Featured image of the podcast (Series Vocabulary Featured Image)
  • Title of the podcast (Series Vocabulary Term)
  • Description of the podcast (Series Vocabulary Term Description)
  • Items. Each individual item (node) will contain the following information:
    • Featured image of the individual node
    • Unique ID
    • URL
    • Title
    • Date Published
    • Summary
    • Taxonomy
