### Discuss

can we have the possibility to set up a rss bridge token to protect the instance like we have in rsshub? if i put rss bridge behind login, it only happens that freshrss cannot reach it anyway, so the token would be better…

Yes you can: [GitHub - RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge: The RSS feed for websites missing it](https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge#how-to-password-protect-the-instance-token)

The config file should be somewhere in your `/var/www/rss-bridge` directory

The config file of this app isn’t handled by YunoHost at the moment, so it would require some work to implement a config panel  
And then it would erase the user config at each upgrade of the app  
I’m not sure a config panel would be relevant for this app, specifically
