Ghost Admin API HTML Source Parameter

Problem

When creating posts via the Ghost Admin API with HTML content, posts are created successfully (201 response, post ID returned) but the HTML content is empty. Only the title appears in the Ghost editor.

Context / Trigger Conditions

  • POST to /ghost/api/admin/posts/ returns 201 success
  • Post is created with correct title
  • HTML content in response/editor is empty (0 chars)
  • You're sending html field in the JSON body
  • You may have tried adding source: "html" to the JSON body (this doesn't work)
