Publish to Contentful, hands-free

What you'll need

• A Contentful space with a content type (model) for your articles — e.g. blogPost.
• The content type's API identifier and the field IDs for its title and body. The body should be a Text (long text) field — point CiteAgentic at it and we write Markdown into it. (Rich text fields aren't supported; they need a special document format.)
• A Content Management token (CMA token).

Step 1 — Create a Content Management token

1. In Contentful, go to Settings → API keys.
2. Open the Content management tokens tab and click Generate personal token (or create a Personal Access Token from your account settings).
3. Give it a name like CiteAgentic and copy the token — it looks like CFPAT-…. Contentful only shows it once.

Step 2 — Find your IDs

• Space ID — Settings → General settings → Space ID.
• Environment — usually master (leave blank to default to it).
• Content type ID — Content model → your model → (⋯) → Edit → API identifier.
• Title / body field IDs — the API identifiers of the fields on that model (defaults: title and body).

Step 3 — Connect it in CiteAgentic

1. Open Site Settings → Publishing channels.
2. Click + Contentful and fill in:
   • Space ID, Environment (or leave master)
   • Content type ID — e.g. blogPost
   • Title field ID / Body field ID — default to title / body
   • Locale — defaults to en-US
   • Publish as — Draft (review in Contentful first) or Published (live immediately)
   • Content Management token — the CFPAT-… token from Step 1
3. Click Test & connect. A green "Connected to content type …" confirms it.

How publishing works

• Publish any approved draft on demand from Share ▾ → Publish to your space.
• Or link the Contentful channel to a day in the content calendar and it publishes automatically on that date — no further action.
• Each piece is created as a Contentful entry using your draft's title and Markdown body. New entries use your chosen Publish as status.
