Example

Example workflow

One realistic scenario.

Scenario: A tech blog RSS feed provides a new post. The agent ingests the item, formats it, and stores a draft in Google Sheets. An editor receives an approval email and approves the post. The agent renders the final HTML, publishes to WordPress and LinkedIn within 30 minutes, updates the rendered content in Sheets, and notifies the team with the post link.

FAQ

FAQ

Common questions about using the AI agent in practice.

You can point the AI agent at any publicly accessible RSS feed. It will fetch new items as they appear and normalize their metadata for consistent processing. If feeds require authentication, you can configure access tokens or proxies as needed. The agent handles one or many feeds and supports customizing fetch intervals. This keeps your workflow scalable without manual intervention.

The agent publishes to WordPress and LinkedIn by default and can extend to Medium if needed. Publishing uses platform APIs with proper authentication to ensure posts appear with correct formatting and media. You can adjust posting windows to respect platform rate limits. The same workflow can be reused for additional channels with minimal setup.

Yes. You can configure approval steps, who must approve, and what happens on approve or rejection. The webhook or email links update the central Google Sheets status. You can add extra validation or content checks before publishing. This keeps editorial control intact while automating repetitive tasks.

The review email includes approve/reject links that call a webhook. The webhook updates the matching row in Google Sheets with the new status. Editors get instant feedback and the system proceeds to the next step only after approval. It’s designed to be resilient to missing responses and can trigger fallback actions if needed.

Rejected posts are marked in the sheet and trigger a notification to the author with suggested next steps. The system can loop back for edits or route to a different feed if desired. Rejection does not delete the draft; it preserves context for future resubmission. This helps maintain a transparent editorial history.

Medium is optional and can be added to the publishing flow with a similar pattern to WordPress and LinkedIn. You would configure its API access and adjust the templating for Medium’s formatting nuances. The workflow handles publishing delays and status updates across all enabled platforms. This makes multi-channel distribution easier without manual handoffs.

Data security is rated by the credentials you provide for each platform and service. Access is restricted to your configured accounts, tokens, and OAuth flows. The agent stores only metadata and rendered content in your approved storage (e.g., Google Sheets), and sensitive keys are not exposed in logs. You can rotate credentials and apply least-privilege access as needed.
