WordPress | Yext Hitchhikers Platform

Overview

Use the WordPress source to pull in your Posts, Pages, Media, and Custom Content Types.

This source uses the WordPress API to:

Authentication

Most WordPress sites have public API endpoints that can be accessed without authentication; however, the WordPress source supports private sites through additional operations.

Installation instructions will ask users to create a new application password on their WordPress site. These credentials (WordPress username and application password) will be used to authenticate any private operation. See WordPress documentation for steps to create an application password.
