About UpAmp Connector
From the official readme · v1.3.0Description
UpAmp Connector allows you to publish blog posts directly from UpAmp to your WordPress site using a secure REST API. No more browser automation or complex setup required.
Features:
- Secure API key authentication
- Publish posts with title, content, excerpt
- Update existing posts after editing in UpAmp
- Delete posts from WordPress (moves to trash)

Why use UpAmp Connector?
Traditional WordPress integrations often rely on browser automation or application passwords, which can be blocked by security plugins, Cloudflare, or hosting providers. UpAmp Connector provides a direct, secure API that works reliably from any location.
Third-Party Service
This plugin connects to UpAmp (https://upamp.com), an external service for AI-powered content creation and marketing automation.
When you publish content through UpAmp:
- Blog post content (title, body, excerpt, categories, tags) is sent from UpAmp to your WordPress site
- Your site URL and API credentials are stored in your UpAmp account
- Featured images may be downloaded from URLs provided by UpAmp

Frequently asked questions
Is this secure?
Yes. The plugin uses hashed API secrets (the same method WordPress uses for passwords) and all communication should be over HTTPS.
Can I regenerate my API credentials?
Yes. Go to Settings > UpAmp Connector and click “Regenerate Credentials”. Note that this will invalidate your old credentials.
Does this work with Cloudflare?
Yes! Unlike browser automation, API requests are not blocked by Cloudflare or similar security services.
