Click Save.

Step 2: Upload Articles

   • Distribution Type — distribute equally or all at once
   • Start/End Date — schedule posts across a date range

Tips

• Direct upload requires the WordPress REST API to be enabled (it is on by default in WordPress 5.6+)
• Use Draft status for review before publishing live
• If upload fails with a 401 error, double-check your application password
