Contesimal Connector Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
Contesimal Connector adds REST API endpoints to your WordPress site, allowing external applications to create and manage content using an API key.
Requests are made to your site’s /wp-json/contesimal/v1/ endpoints. The plugin does not send any data externally on its own.
External services and privacy
- Service: Designed to work with Contesimal (https://contesimal.ai), but compatible with any client using your API key.
- Data received: Post title, content (HTML), excerpt, status, categories, tags, post type, author ID, and media URLs.
- Media handling: Your WordPress site may download remote files from provided URLs to create Media Library attachments.
- When: Only when a valid API request is sent to your site. No background communication occurs.
- Control: External access is enabled only if you share the API key. You can regenerate the key or deactivate the plugin at any time.
- Consent: By enabling the plugin and sharing the API key, the site administrator allows external applications to submit content.
Authentication
All endpoints require an API key sent in the X-API-Key header (or Authorization: Bearer).
The key is:
– Generated on your site
– Stored as a secure hash
– Managed by administrators only
Requests without a valid key are rejected (401). Rate limiting is applied per IP.
API keys should be treated as sensitive credentials and only shared with trusted systems.
Features
- API key authentication (hashed storage)
- Create posts via REST API
- List categories and post types
- Media import from external URLs
- Rate limiting (per IP)
- Configurable CORS
- Optional request logging (admin only)
