CMS & Content

Connect AI agents to a self-hosted WordPress site through the REST API. Agents manage posts, pages, categories, tags, users, media, comments, settings, and custom types, and react to new published posts and new comments.

2 triggers 52 actions available
A content brief lands in a backlog sheet or upstream system
Agent reads the brief and formats the title and HTML body
Agent adds the cover image with Upload Media From URL
Agent stages the article with Create Post at status draft
The editorial channel gets a link to the staged draft
An editor approves before the agent flips the post to publish

What This Integration Enables

An agent can manage the full WordPress content surface. It lists, gets, creates, updates, and deletes posts and pages, curates categories and tags, and manages users with the role and profile fields you set. It mirrors media into the library from an external URL, reads and updates media metadata, and moderates comments by creating, editing, approving, or deleting them. It can also read and update site-wide settings, search across the site, and work with custom post types, custom fields, and custom taxonomies by their REST base. Two polling triggers let flows react to the site in near real time. On New Published Post fires for each newly published post, with an optional category filter, so an announcement or cross-post flow starts the moment an article goes live. On New Comment fires for each new comment, with optional post and moderation-status filters, so a moderation or reply flow starts as conversations come in. This lets an agent draft content for review, curate the taxonomy, and respond to activity, while a person still owns the moment a draft becomes public.

Without FlowRunner

Manual publishing Someone copies each draft into WordPress and clicks publish
Media handled by hand Cover images are downloaded and re-uploaded one at a time
Announcements are ad hoc A new post is shared to Slack and social whenever someone notices

With FlowRunner

Drafts staged for review The agent creates each article as a draft with media attached
Media mirrored by URL The agent pulls the cover image into the library automatically
Announcements fire on publish On New Published Post kicks off the notify and cross-post flow

Use Case Scenarios

Stage Articles for Review

When a content brief lands in [Google Sheets](/integrations/google-sheets), the agent calls Upload Media From URL to add the cover image, then Create Post at status draft to stage the article with its title, HTML body, categories, and tags set. The editor opens WordPress to a ready-to-review draft instead of a blank editor and a folder of images.

Announce New Posts

When On New Published Post fires, the agent posts to the marketing channel with [Slack](/integrations/slack) Send Message To Channel and cross-posts the article to [Medium](/integrations/medium) with the source URL as a canonical reference. The launch checklist that used to run by hand runs the instant the post goes live.

Onboard a Contributor

When a new contributor submission arrives by email, the agent calls Create User to onboard them with the author role and Create Post to seed their first draft. The new writer starts with an account and a working draft instead of a back-and-forth thread.

Human-in-Loop Highlight

Drafting posts, mirroring media, curating tags, and reading the site are safe to automate, so the agent handles them on its own. Publishing is the consequential act, because moving a post from draft to publish makes it live for every visitor and fires the site's own publish hooks. So when a flow would change a post's status to publish, the agent stops. It routes the staged draft to an editor as a [human-in-the-loop](/concepts/human-in-the-loop/) step, showing the title, the rendered excerpt, the categories and tags, and a preview link, and asks: "Publish this post to the live blog, or hold for edits?" On approval the agent calls Update Post to set the status to publish. On hold, the post stays a draft and nothing goes public. The AI stages and formats every article; the decision to publish gets a person.
