  "workflow": {
    "status": "draft",
    "assignee": "content-team",
    "due_date": "2024-02-15"
  },
  "seo": {
    "target_keyword": "",
    "search_intent": "informational",
    "target_length": 1500
  }
}

Batch Processing

Process multiple articles simultaneously for efficiency:

  2. Use Wild Feed for bulk conversion
  3. Review and export all at once
  4. Deploy using automated scripts
