The topic is sent to an AI model (like LLM/OpenAI) to generate the full article title, structure, body, and meta description.\n\nNext, the workflow searches **Pexels/Pixabay** for a relevant, license-free featured image, downloads it, and uploads it to **WordPress**.\n\nFinally, it creates a draft post on WordPress, populating the title, body, meta description, and attaching the featured image. A notification (email/Slack) is then sent to the content team, ensuring the draft is ready for review.\n\n## Setup steps\n1. **AI Service:** Configure the \"LLM/Article Extractor\" node (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic) with your API key.\n2. **Image Service:** Configure the \"Pixabay/Pexels\" nodes with your API key.\n3. **WordPress:** Connect the \"Post on WordPress\" and \"Attach media\" nodes using your WordPress credentials (URL and API/username/password).\n4. **Notification:** Configure the \"Send email/Slack\" node in the **User feedback** section with the necessary credentials to notify the content reviewer."
