Possible problems

Unable to update a post

The Update a post action does not allow to edit a draft (a post that's in progress). You can only update published posts.

The Watch posts trigger failed to download a post

The Blogger interface enables to download posts only assigned to one specific status. Blogger distinguishes three post statuses:

• Post in progress (draft status)
• Published post (live status)
• Scheduled post (scheduled status)

If you'd like to monitor posts in more statuses, you'll need to create a separate scenario for each status.
