Importing posts from Sheets to Wordpress in Gutenberg Blocks format?

Features
1

Hi everyone,

This is just a preliminary question before I start working on a new project.

I’ve imported posts from a Google sheet into wordpress before (using HTML for formatting) without any problems. However, they import by default as Classic Editor posts which I can then convert to Gutenberg Blocks format manually (by clicking the “convert to blocks” button within the wordpress editor).

Is there anyway to import from Make to Wordpress as Gutenberg block format directly? If not, does anyone have any experience with converting to block format in bulk after the fact? I’ve seen a few plugins for this, but they all still require opening and resaving each post individually.

Thanks in advance for any help!

It seems like there’s an API to transform blocks, which include raw text.

The Wordpress app on Make doesn’t have an module for this API.

If the external service has a Developer API Reference/Documentation then you should be able to integrate the endpoints in Make using the generic “Make an API Call” module.

You can also suggest for it to be made in the Idea exchange. Don’t forget to search for it first, in case someone already suggested it!
