Skip to main content
Generate a full article end-to-end from a short brief. SnowSEO builds the structured outline, target keywords, and FAQ prompts for you, creates the draft, and writes the content in the background.
This uses AI credits. The article is written asynchronously — the call returns a slug immediately. Poll Start Generation until it finishes, then read it with Get Article.

How it works

  1. Provide a title, a topicId (the topic cluster the article belongs to), a length tier, and optionally a tone or customInstructions.
  2. The outline, target keywords, and FAQ prompts are generated for you — you don’t need to provide or author them.
  3. A draft is created and generation starts. The response is { slug, articleId, generating, started, status } (plus requiredCredits / message / alreadyRunning when relevant).
  4. Poll the status with that slug; when it is no longer generating, fetch the finished article.

Notes

  • Topic is required. Every article belongs to a topic cluster. Pass a topicId from Topics, or create one with Create Topic. The topic name is taken from the cluster.
  • Length sets the cost. Choose a length tier — short (~100 credits), medium (~200), or long (~300).
  • Custom instructions (customInstructions) are optional, per-article writing guidance. Your brand’s default content guidelines (Brand Settings → About) are always applied automatically.
  • Language is optional. Omit it and the article uses your brand’s Writing Language (Settings → Content & CMS → Articles), falling back to your brand’s default language. Pass a language code such as es to write this one article in a different language. Codes are usually two letters, with three exceptions: Chinese is zh_CN or zh_TW, and Hebrew is iw (the legacy code, not he). Whichever applies is recorded on the article, so later refreshes, audits, and editor commands stay in that language even if the brand setting changes.
  • Set startGeneration: false to create the draft only, then call Start Generation later.
