Exploring your feed

Your feed displays relevant media coverage from across the topics in your Isentia account. New media items will automatically appear in your feed as they are added to your topics.

From your feed, you can action media items, including adding them to a report or a topic of your choosing or select an individual media item to open the full item view and see more details about that piece of coverage.

Media items in your feed

A media item in your feed will display the key information relating to that piece of coverage, allowing you to quickly determine its priority.

Media item view

When viewing media items in your feed, you can choose to view your items in either magazine view or table view, based on which view of your media items you prefer.

Switching media item view

Using the option shown in your feed, you can easily switch between different media item views and select the view you want to use.

The view of the media items you select will be remembered the next time you sign into the Isentia platform but can be changed at any time using the Switch view option.

Magazine view

Magazine view is the default view of media items within the Isentia platform. This view gives you a more visual display of your media items, showing additional information for each piece of coverage, including attributed keywords, summary text, and related images.

Table view

The table view shows more media items, displaying the key information for each piece of coverage, including the publication, journalist, headline, media type, and the time and date the media item was published.

Quick actions

Quick actions speed up engaging with the media items in your feed. When you hover over a media item, you’ll see the following quick actions:

• Mark as read – Instantly change a media item to the “read” state.
• View original – Directly view the original media item
• Copy link – Copy the link to the original media item for easy sharing with stakeholders.

Viewing individual media items in the full-item view

Select a media item displayed in your feed to open the full item view and understand more details, including links to the original media items, the display of relevant metadata, and the ability to easily and directly share content with stakeholders.

For more information on what’s included in the full item view check out this article: Isentia platform: Full item view.

Filtering & sorting media items in your feed

You can use several filtering and sorting options to change which media items are displayed in your feed.

Filtering and sorting options include allowing you to filter your content by media type, date range (based on when an item was published), or using additional filters that can be found under the More Filter option. You also have the option to sort your media items by outlet, media contact, or geographic location.

Select the filters and sorting options you want to use, and your feed will automatically display matching content. To remove any filters or sorting options that you’ve applied, select Reset. 

Stored filters

Any changes to how the media items in your feed are sorted, or filters you apply will be remembered for the next time you view your feed. Thus, you can easily set up your feed to always get straight to your most important media coverage.

Topic filter

Using the topic filter, you can only display content from selected topics in your feed. New media items will still appear in each of your topics; they won’t be visible in your feed if that topic is not selected when applying the topic filter.

Actioning media items in your feed

You can apply several actions to the media items in your feed. To action media items, select the check box on each media item, and choose the action you want to complete.

Note: Use the check box next to the total number of items shown at the top of your feed to select all currently displayed media items.

 Once you have selected the media items you can choose to Add to the report or Add to the topic: 

• Add to report: Your items will be added to the manual report builder and included in any coverage reports you create to share media items with stakeholders.
• Add to topic: Manually move and organise your content, and add your media items to a single or multiple topics within your account.
• Export to CSV: Export your selected media items from the Isentia platform into a spreadsheet format.
