If your podcast is still hosted on Spotify for Creators, moving hosting to Flightcast changes how the feed, publishing and analytics are managed. The migration needs to preserve your existing show and its media before the old feed is redirected.
Check the migration plan first
Contact Flightcast support from your account and include your existing Spotify show URL. We can confirm your current connection and the steps that apply to it.
Before redirecting, confirm:
- The correct show and Flightcast RSS feed have been identified
- Existing episodes and the media you need have been imported
- Historical analytics coverage has been checked
- Any ads, scheduled releases or monetization requirements have been accounted for
- The team has confirmed that the show is ready for the hosting change
Keep your original media and available analytics exports. Do not delete the Spotify show, create a replacement listing, or disconnect a working integration as a shortcut.
Complete the agreed hosting change
When support confirms the show is ready, follow the current migration steps for your account. They may include redirecting the old RSS feed to the verified Flightcast feed and completing the Spotify distribution transition.
If support needs access to assist, confirm the account, purpose and access level with them first. You do not need to send anyone your password. Granting an administrator role is a separate access decision, not a requirement to follow this article.
Verify the result
After migration, check the existing public Spotify show, recent episodes, media playback and upcoming releases. Review your other directory listings and analytics coverage too. Migration and processing times vary; there is no universal 30-minute completion guarantee.
The older Spotify analytics feed can stop at the transition while current Spotify activity is reported through Flightcast’s current integration. This helps avoid duplicate counts. Do not reconnect merely because the old feed ends.
If media or dates are missing, contact support with the affected show, episodes and date range. Missing RSS or Apple figures can have several causes and should not automatically be attributed to legacy Spotify hosting.
