Quick overview
Quick overview This workflow takes a blog post title and content, generates a short Pexels search phrase with Anthropic Claude, downloads a matching stock photo from Pexels, uploads it to your WordPress media library, creates a draft WordPress post, and sets the uploaded image as the featured image. How it works Runs when you manually execute the workflow. Sets a sample WordPress post title and HTML content to use as input. Sends the post title to Anthropic Claude to generate a short photo search phrase and cleans it for use as keywords. Searches the Pexels API for a landscape image matching the generated keywords and downloads the top result. Uploads the downloaded image to your WordPress site via the WordPress REST API as a media item. Creates a new WordPress post as a draft with the provided title and content, then updates the post to set the uploaded media item as its featured image. Setup Add an Anthropic API credential and select a Claude model in the keyword-generation step. Create a Pexels API key and configure it as an HTTP Header Auth credential for the Pexels search request. Create a WordPress Application Password and configure the WordPress API credential, then replace https://your-site.com with your WordPress site URL in the media upload and post update requests. Replace the sample title and content with your own input source (or connect your content-generation step) and adjust the post status if you want to publish instead of saving drafts. Requirements Pexels API key (free) and WordPress Application Passwords Customization Searches Pexels for a landscape photo matching that phrase. Change post Status from Draft to Publish if you want fully automated publishing Additional info This is one piece of a larger daily content automation pipeline.
