Goals

Add support in the facebook-android-sdk for parsing and consuming the Facebook Login Status RSS feed (https://metastatus.com/outage-events-feed-facebook-login.rss). This would enable Android applications to monitor Facebook Login service status programmatically and react to outage events or service changes.

Expected results

  • The SDK provides a straightforward way to fetch and parse the Facebook Login Status RSS feed, including handling atom:link and lastBuildDate.
  • Documentation or code samples are provided to demonstrate integration in an Android project.
  • Developers can easily extract and use status updates from the RSS feed within their mobile apps.

Code samples & details

Sample Facebook Login Status RSS feed:

<rss xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" version="2.0">
<channel>
<title>Facebook Login Status</title>
<link>https://metastatus.com/facebook-login</link>
<atom:link href="https://metastatus.com/outage-events-feed-facebook-login.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/>
<description>Status updates for Facebook Login</description>
<lastBuildDate>Fri, 15 Aug 2025 18:51:55 GMT</lastBuildDate>
</channel>
</rss>

Additional context: See https://metastatus.com/facebook-login for the live feed and ensure robust compatibility with the feed structure as used by Facebook.
