FAQ

FAQ

Common questions about this AI agent and its exports.

The AI agent exports Post ID, Title, Link, and Rendered Content by default. You can extend the export to include publication date, author, categories, and tags if needed. The data is formatted into a CSV with a header row and proper encoding. You can configure which fields to include and the delimiter used. If your WordPress site exposes additional fields via the REST API, the agent can capture those as well.

Yes. You can specify which fields to include (e.g., ID, Title, Link, Rendered Content, Date). The agent ensures proper CSV encoding and consistent headers. If you need extra fields, they can be added to the export pipeline. You can also rename headers for compatibility with downstream analytics tools.

You connect your WordPress site using REST API credentials or application passwords and grant the AI agent access to Google Drive. The authorization is stored securely within the platform. No credentials are exposed during the CSV creation process. You can revoke access at any time.

Yes. The AI agent supports manual triggers or scheduled runs. You can configure a cadence (daily, weekly, or monthly) and specify a Google Drive folder for storage. Scheduling uses the same permissions and error handling as manual runs, ensuring reliability.

The agent logs errors and retries according to your configuration. It notifies you of failures and provides actionable details to diagnose issues. You can rerun failed exports manually or automatically once the root cause is addressed. Security and integrity checks are performed before the upload step.

The agent relies on the WordPress REST API, which is standard in WordPress 4.7 and later. For sites with older versions or custom APIs, some fields may require adjustments. If necessary, you can customize the export to align with your WP installation. Regular updates to the integration ensure compatibility with major WordPress releases.

Access is limited to the required capabilities for export and upload. Credentials are stored securely, and data transfer uses standard security measures. You can configure folder-level permissions in Google Drive to control who can view the exports. If you have stricter compliance needs, you can enable additional encryption and access controls.
