Google Sheets > WordPress and HTML links

[sjo]

Using Google Sheets to Create a Post in WordPress - which is working - however in the content of the post, I need to add an html link. I have tried it and it is not working - how do I get an html link in a post from Google Sheets please ?

Many thanks for the help

Hey @sjo

In the WordPress action step, you can pass the link with the HTML's anchor tag.

E.g. -
<a href="www.pabblyconnect.com">www.pabblyconnect.com</a>

Thanks Supreme but I need to add the link to Google Sheets as my client will not want to go to the Wordpress action set.

Will the link appear in the Wordpress post if I add it to a Google sheets column in the content please ? I have tried it and it is not working. Do I need to add another column in the Sheet please and configure something in the action step to take the link ?

Many thanks for the help.

Best wishes,

Stephen

Just double checked again - placing the anchor link in the content in the Google sheet stops the post from creating in Wordpress.

The error code I am receiving is:

{
"code": "empty_content",
"message": "Content, title, and excerpt are empty.",
"data > status": 400
}

Grateful for your advice how to add a link to the content please.

Many thanks.

Best wishes,

Stephen

Hey @sjo

If want to pass the link from your Google Sheets to WordPress then add a column or add the link in the existing column then capture the webhook response.

Which you can process further in the WooCommerce action step.
