Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

What do you mean by "RFC feed"?

In general though, there are two ways to "connect" to a Confluence system.  The obvious one is "use a browser", which gives you the full UI, and the other is intended for other computers, and is the REST API.  The REST API includes RSS feeds too, if that's what you meant by RFC.

But all of these require you to authenticate with an account that has at least read access to Confluence.

RFC means SAP connects to Confluence as a Remote System using authentication. We are also exploring the API token approach. 

Will it be a stable long term solution if we choose a "no expiry" token ?

So you'll want to use the REST API then.

No, you won't have problems with a long term "no expiry" token, you can, and probably should, use one of them!

Ok, will give the API's a try and update back, Thanks for the help
