Create Post method

With the "Create item" method, you can create a new post item. When selecting a post type, you can choose between:

  • Post — a standard WordPress post with native fields only
  • Post with ACF — a post that includes both standard WordPress fields and ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) fields

Main Parameters

  • Post Type: This is a required dropdown field where you can choose between:
    • Post — creates a standard WordPress post with native fields only
    • Post with ACF — when selected, a second dropdown will appear listing all custom post types that have ACF fields configured. Select the desired custom post type from that dropdown.

Post

When you select a standard post type, the standard WordPress post fields will be listed as function fields, where you can specify the value for each one.

Post Fields

Common fields include:

  • Title: The post title
  • Content: The post content
  • Excerpt: A short summary of the post
  • Status: The post status (e.g. publish, draft). Note: Items are automatically saved as private. Use with caution only if you understand the permission implications, as retrieval, editing, and deletion are managed through the admin account and permissions you've configured.
