# Add EPG module | Create a FAST channel landing page

## About EPG Guide

An Electronic Program Guide (EPG) is a program guide feature for linear TV and in the context of a streaming service, Fast channel is more like a linear television. This is because they are designed to be watched live.

To add an EPG guide to a Fast channel, you have to set up the EPG feature by integrating with an EPG provider. we currently support Amagi as our EPG XML provider. An EPG feed is an XML file that contains the metadata of the videos in a FAST channel, such as the video title, description, and run time. Once integrated, the EPG feed URL is automatically created in the Renditions and Mezz section on the content page. Copy the URL and add it to the [corresponding Fast channel page](/v1/docs/epg#create-a-fast-channel-landing-page), and publish both the Fast Channel page and the Modular page.

Creating a Fast channel page is just the same as you create a [modular page](https://docs.viewlift.com/v1/docs/create-a-page).

After creating the modular page, do the following:

1. From the Fast Channel modular page, click on the **Add Modules** button on top.
2. Search for the **EPG Feed** module, and drag and drop the module to the page.
3. To add the feed URL, click the settings icon.

### EPG Feed module settings

**Tip**

If you have multiple Fast channels, simply bind them all to a [nav menu](/v1/docs/header-navigation) so users can quickly navigate through channels and discover the content that they want to watch.
