POST /v1/brands/{brand_id}/content-plans

Generate a batch of articles

Queue up to 30 articles in one call: the balance is checked once for the whole plan, then each article runs on the single-article contract, with its own credit reserved and refunded if it fails. 10 credits each, 9 each when the plan holds 5 or more, 8 each from 20; Starter.

Pass your own batch_id so a retry cannot queue the same plan twice. Follow it with GET /v1/brands/{brand_id}/content-plans/{batch_id}. Build the items from GET /v1/brands/{brand_id}/content-opportunities: each row carries the topic, the keywords and the context to pass straight in, or pass a keyword cluster's cluster_id to plan its pillar and supports.

Path parameters

Query parameters

  • dry_run boolean optional

    Preview the call without executing it. Runs auth, scope, eligibility and body validation, then returns 200 with a dry_run object reporting the request-unit and credit cost plus a non-consuming quota snapshot. Nothing is debited, reserved, dispatched or mutated. An invalid body still returns 422.

    default: false

Header parameters

  • Idempotency-Key string required

    Required with an API key, else 400 idempotency_key_required: a new value per operation (a UUID works). A retry with the same key and body within 24 hours replays the first response instead of running again. Ignored with dry_run=true.

Request body

application/json required
Type: ContentPlanCreate
  • batch_id string (nullable) nullable

    Your own id for the batch, so a retry cannot queue (and charge) the same plan twice.

  • cluster_id string (nullable) nullable

    Plan a keyword cluster (GET /v1/brands/{brand_id}/seo/keyword-clusters) instead of listing items: its pillar first unless it already has an article, then up to 29 of its most searched keywords without one. Each support article links to the pillar article once that one is live.

  • items array of ContentPlanItem (nullable) nullable

    Up to 30 articles, 10 credits each. Pass items or cluster_id, not both.
