Images in articles may be inserted in the article body text by using the <img> tag with src, alt and data-portal-copyright as the
only required attributes. Data-portal-copyright is used to store the image credit and copy-right information.
Example
<img
src="http://images.mentalfloss.com/sites/default/files/styles/insert_main_wide_image/public/sheep_teeth_4433.jpg"
width="620" height="569" alt="Image title here" data-portal-copyright="Brian Lockwood" />

Images in the article body can also be supported with <media:content> or <img> tag, but not both in the body content for
the images.

Use of Syndicated Images


MSN recommends providing an image even if you dont have syndication rights. However, MSN requires you to set the
HaveImageSyndicationRights field to indicate you do not have syndication rights for this image.
In cases where the content provider does not have rights to syndicate the images that would normally appear in the
Article, MSN requires that the content provider include the ImageLicsensorId and ImageLicensorName (definitions in
table above). MSN has agreements with many image licensors, and the included image may be covered by those
agreements. These include, but are not limited to:

Deep Linking Content to Your App


A deep-link is a specially crafted link that allows a MSN user to open a piece of web content directly in an app installed
on the user's platform. In the case of MSN, content providers will provide an app deep-link in each piece of content
ingested by MSN. This link will be combined at render time with the content provider's app installation location, and
allow rendering to present a "Get the App", "Open the App", "View in the App" experience in that piece of content.
To take advantage of this capability, as a content provider you will need the following:
1. A Windows Universal Platform app published to the Windows Store.
2. The App must have launch protocol and URI Activation support. See URI Activation for more information.

3. In any XML-based feed (ATOM, XML, RSS, mRSS), a content Provider will add the following namespace alias
definition to the header:
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:dl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:universal-store:deeplink-rss:1.0">

4. Each content item in the feed should contain the following:

Con formato: Fuente: Times New Roman,

<dl:link platform="windows_universal"><<deep link>></dl:link>

Where

Con formato: Fuente de escritura compleja: Negrita

<<deeplink>>: is the custom schema for launching content in the Providers Windows Universal app.

Example: <dl:link platform="windows_universal>msnnews://content/AaBcDe</dl:link>

Con formato: Fuente: (Predeterminada) Consolas,


Fuente de escritura compleja: Consolas

In a JSON feed, add the following to the link section:


"link": [
{ "rel": "deeplink",
"href": "<<deeplink>>"
}
]

Example:

Con formato: Fuente de escritura compleja: Negrita

"link": [
{"rel": "deeplink",
"href": "msnnews://content/AaBcDe"
}
]

Once these prerequisites are met, please work with your MSN contact to have your App associated with your Provider
information in the MSN system, and to have your feeds deep-links mapped in the MSN system.

For videos to be hosted by Microsoft, the guidance is to provide the highest quality video file so that Microsoft
can transcode to the proper streams per device. Minimum quality of 720p, 3Mbps is recommended.
Videos can be embedded within the article if a video link is provided as a media element. <iframe> tags and the
videos with the <media:content> element are supported for the inline videos.
MSN supports in-line embedded videos in the <iframe> tags as well, this support is for both 1PP and the 3PP
videos like YouTube, daily motion videos etc., and more than one 3PP inline video can be supported for an
article.
<iframe> tags and the videos with the <media:content> element are supported for the inline YouTube URLs.
Multiple in-line videos can appear in a single article.

Specifications for In-Line Videos

The video URL should be placed in-line within an articles body. The video will be placed according to placement
of URL in body of article in feed. If the video media content sections are outside of article section, these videos
will be placed randomly in the article body.
MSN supports one type of video player per Provider; either a First Party Player (1PP) or a Third Party Player
(3PP). For providers who have an existing video feed, any articles from that provider must use the same type of
video player as the videos in the video feed. For example, if the Provider is configured to use a 1PP (First Party
Video Player), then in-line videos should also be 1PP. If the Providers video feed is configured to use a 3PP
(Third Party Video Player) then inline videos should also be 3PP and will be played in same player.
YouTube videos are 3PP videos, and YouTube in-line videos are supported either in <iframe> or in the
<media:content> section.

Example of a video within a 1PP Video feed:


In the below RSS video feed we have the direct video URL form the partner from which we can download the video and
ingest into CMS.
<media:content duration="75" medium="video" type="video/mp4" url="http://brightcove01.brightc
ove.com/23/1612802193/201503/1068/1612802193_4113026433001_20150315170000waldmhsports.mp4?videoId=1668522799"/>

Example of a video within a 3PP Video feed:


In the below RSS video feed, we have the link of the third party player, which we will not be able to download the video
and ingest into CMS.
<media:content url="https://www.youtube.com/v/_95hhbOPW6s?version=3&f=videos&app=youtube_gdat

Avoiding Duplication of Videos from the Same Provider


The ingestion code checks for duplicate videos between an articles in-line video and videos ingested as part of a video
feed. The provider should be configured with the correct UniqueID (the UniqueID helps the code identify existing
content against this provider). With this in place, any duplicate videos will be skipped. If there is suspicion that duplicate
videos are being ingested, we can check to ensure that the feeds UniqueID is configured correctly.
NOTE: Any change to a partners UniqueID scheme must be communicated to MSN Editorial Engineering 30 days in
advance of the change. This allows enough time to either re-map or re-ingest videos using the new scheme.

Detecting Updates to Previously Published Content


Ingested content can be updated with the changes in the content based on the below conditions:

The <UniqueID> element should have the same value as original content. Any re-use of the <UniqueID> value will
result in the original content being overwritten.
The <publishedDate> element should have the same value as when the content was originally published.
The <updatedDate> element should have a value of the current date (different from the <publishedDate> value). For
the initial publish this will be the same value as <published> (this might be a different element for this feed i.e.
<updateDate>)

NOTE: Any change to a partners UniqueID scheme must be communicated to MSN Editorial Engineering 30 days in
advance of the change. This allows enough time to either re-map or re-ingest videos using the new scheme.
