Content Studio — Save, Export, and Schedule

Ship the draft — download a ZIP, save to Google Drive, or approve it to schedule and publish from Asset Library.

What is it?

The action-bar buttons above the tab row — Download ZIP, Save to Drive, Approve & Schedule (green primary), and the Refine button for Manus drafts. Each corresponds to an output workflow. Drafts auto-save to Firestore on every edit, so these actions are about distribution, not saving.

When should I use it?

• Download ZIP when you need a file bundle to hand to a writer, an email attachment, or offline work.
• Save to Drive to create a Word doc inside the client's Drive folder — ideal for client review loops.
• Approve & Schedule when the draft is ready to go live — books a publish date on the Scheduler and drops you in Asset Library.
• Publish to a CMS from Asset Library — after approving, push the article to WordPress or Shopify from the piece's card.

How to use it

Download ZIP

1. Click the download icon in the action bar.
2. You get a ZIP with: article.md, meta.txt, social posts as separate .txt files, a references.txt (if Manus), and any generated images.

Save to Google Drive

1. Click the Drive icon.
2. The app creates (or reuses) a subfolder inside the client's Drive folder, named after the keyword/title.
3. A Word document is uploaded there. A folder link appears on the draft card in Asset Library.

Approve & Schedule

1. Click Approve & Schedule (green button). The Schedule Content modal opens.
2. Tick Schedule for a specific date and pick a Publication Date to book it, or leave it unticked to save with no date.
3. Click Schedule (or Save to Library if no date). Events are created — one for the article, one for each social post.
4. You land in Asset Library, filtered to this piece. From there, publish to a connected CMS (WordPress or Shopify).

Tips and best practices

• Save to Drive before scheduling — it gives clients a review artifact.
• Schedule article + social for the same day (or stagger social by 1–2 hours) for a cohesive launch.
• WordPress publishing auto-appends the Sources section from Manus references. No extra formatting needed.
• Team members see the schedule on the same Calendar — coordinate with editors to avoid collisions.

Gotchas and limits

• Save to Drive requires Drive connected. For team members, this uses your Drive, not the owner's.
• Publish to WordPress requires the NexusSEO Connector plugin installed on the target WP site.
• Viewers can't click any of these buttons — all gated by RBAC.
• Once scheduled, you can still edit the draft in Asset Library — but scheduled events don't auto-update if you change the article. Re-schedule or remove and re-approve.
