Hey guys,
after getting a 403 while sending data from airtable to wordpress, I figured out that it failed because of the categories and the tags. In my case, both of them are dynamic. Hereby the categories exists, and tags can be new or are existing.
I looked at how categories and tags where send, and it looks fine to me (screenshot). Anyone ran into the same issue?
Thanks,
Daniel

Just wanted to follow up here as spotted that there’s a feature request open for the ability to search for tags in WordPress which would also allow for a new tag to be created if an existing one wasn’t found.

+14Hi
Believe you’ll need to use the WordPress Category ID or Tag ID, instead of the friendly name.

That worked like a charm for my categories …
BUT – what about my tags that are new, and therefore no IDs exist?
Besides that, I have 3574 tags to date on my blog, and every post is adding some more …
While I could match all existing tags to IDs in an extra table, it would be plain amazing if the bridge to wordpress allows something easier ...
