# Feed Drops

You can publish a clip and its supporting metadata, from a source program to a destination program with a *feed drop*. This is useful for cross-promoting podcast shows in a network. For example, if a podcast series is concluding, you can use feed drops to release a teaser episode from a new program in a destination program, guiding listeners to your upcoming program.

With a feed drop you can also modify the clip’s title, description, publish date, season, episode number, and schedule its release date in the destination program.

A feed-dropped clip only appears in the **Clips**list of the source program, it does not belong to the destination program.

## Permission Required

To manage feed drops, your Omny Studio account must have content permissions for both the origin and destination programs. For details, see [Omny Studio User Permissions](/user/docs/permissions-explained)[.](https://help.tritondigital.com/docs/permissions-explained)

1. [Go to the clip](/user/docs/find-items) in the source program that you want to drop into the destination’s program’s playlist.
2. In the **Details**tab, ensure that the clip’s **Current Visibility** is either **Unlisted**or **Public**. The clip must not be **Private**. See [Clip visibility](/user/docs/clip-visibility).
3. In the **Feed drops** tab, select **Create feed drop.**
4. In **Create Feed Drop**, select **Destination playlist**.
5. Optional: In **Select destination playlist for feed drop**, search for the **Program**and **Playlist**where you want to drop the clip.
6. Select the destination playlist’s **+** (plus) button.
7. Specify the feed drop’s details:
  - **Feed drop starts on**: Optional. Specify the date and time for the feed drop to start. The default is to add the clip to the destination playlist immediately.
  - **Update published date**: Check to use the feed drop’s start date, uncheck to use the clip’s **Published date**.
  - **Feed drop ends on**: Optional: Specify the date and time for Omny Studio to remove the clip from the destination playlist. The default is to leave the clip in the destination playlist indefinitely.
  - **Title**, **Description**, **Season and episode information**: Optional. Override and specify a custom information for the clip in the destination playlist. This does not affect the clip’s original information. The default is to use the clip’s information.
  - **Disable dynamic ad insertion**: Check to drop an ad-free clip, with no ad markers. Uncheck to keep the clip’s ad markers and program ad settings.
8. Scroll down and select **Create feed drop**.

## View, Edit, and Delete Feed Drops

You can see, edit, and delete current feed drops. When editing a feed drop, you cannot change **Destination Playlist**. Instead, delete the feed drop and create a new one with the destination playlist that you want.

You can see the status of a feed dropped clip in a clip’s **Feed Drops** tab:

- **Not started**: The clip is scheduled and ready to be feed-dropped but no yet live.
- **Live**: The feed-dropped clip is active and available in the destination playlist.
- **Completed**: The feed-dropped clip has expired and no longer appears in the destination playlist.

## **Analytics for Feed-Dropped Clips**

Omny Studio applies downloads of feed-dropped clips to the source program, not the destination program. In other words, downloads of a feed-dropped clip from the destination playlist will be reported only in the clip’s source program.

- At clip-level, download analytics of a shared clip will show downloads across all the playlists it is available from.
- At program-level, download analytics will include all downloads of that shared clip across all playlists it is available from.
