Split the entries for easy sorting or a cleaner view.\n\nStep 4. Set a new https node with all the blog URLs that we got from the previous steps. \n\nStep 5. Extract the contents of the blog\n\nStep 6. Add the medium node and then set the contents that you want to be shared out.\n\nExecute your work flow and you are good to go\n\n\n"
