What connectors do

Connectors let Skayle publish posts into your CMS while keeping taxonomy and author data aligned with your workflow.

​
Supported connectors

External connectors:
  • WordPress
  • Sanity
  • Webflow
  • Contentful
Built-in mode:
  • Skayle CMS (headless mode)

​
Draft vs publish behavior

Across connectors, Skayle keeps a draft-first workflow.
  • Draft: content exists in Skayle and can be edited.
  • Publish: content is pushed to the connector using connector-specific status behavior.
  • Unpublish: content is moved back to draft in Skayle and unpublish/remove behavior follows connector support.

​
Field mapping

Mapping controls how Skayle post fields map to CMS fields.
  • WordPress uses fixed WordPress API fields.
  • Sanity, Webflow, and Contentful require explicit field mapping.
Correct mapping is required for stable publish and update behavior.

​
Taxonomy sync logic

Taxonomy sync supports categories, tags, and authors with connector-specific capabilities. You can run sync flows based on your selected source of truth:
  • Skayle as source of truth
  • Connector as source of truth

​
If publishing fails

When publish fails, Skayle surfaces a user-visible error message so you can resolve configuration issues and retry. Common causes include:
  • Invalid credentials
  • Missing CMS permissions
  • Incomplete field or taxonomy mapping
  • CMS-side validation conflicts
