Categorize and Publish Post
with WordPress
Create a category and publish a post assigned to it.
- Create the category term that the post will be filed under. WordPress returns 201 with the new term id on success.
- Publish a new post and assign it to the category created in the prior step by referencing its id in the categories array.
- Read the newly created post back by id to confirm it persisted with the expected published status.
What you'll need to have ready

- categoryName: The display name for the new category (e.g. "Technology").
- categoryDescription: Optional HTML description of the category.
- postTitle: The title for the new post.
