Hi everyone,
I’m experiencing a 401 error when attempting to create a post on WordPress using a Webhook in Zapier. The error states, “Sorry, you are not allowed to create posts as this user.”
Here are some details:
- User Role: Admin
- Password: Confirmed as correct
- Testing in Postman: The same request works successfully in Postman, so the credentials and endpoint seem to be correct.
In Zapier, here’s the setup:
- Method: POST
- URL: https://blog.registraschermo.it/wp-json/wp/v2/posts
- Headers: Content-Type set to application/json
- Data:
{
"title": "Title",
"content": "Content",
"status": "draft"
}
I’ve attached a screenshot of the error and setup configuration in Zapier for reference. Any insights on why this might be failing in Zapier but working in Postman would be greatly appreciated.
