importers in AEM5.6.1/6.1

[chetanvajre2014]

In our installation, if I try to create "New" under tools/importers, the templates is blank. Are we missing a license?

If I want to display data from an external RSS feed, is this the feature we should use?

Here is a community article that talks about this use case:

You do not need a separate lic to use this.

You can also create an AEM Importer service by using the com.day.cq.polling.importer.Importer API.

Hope this helps...
