## Description

Synoptic Stream is a plugin that automatically forwards newly published WordPress
posts to your Synoptic stream. It uses the Synoptic API to send post data to your
stream whenever a new post is published on your WordPress site.

#### Features

 * Forwards new WordPress posts to Synoptic streams
 * Configurable API key and stream ID
 * Activity log to track forwarded posts

#### Requirements

 * WordPress 5.0 or higher
 * PHP 7.2 or higher
 * Active Synoptic account with API access

### Configuration

After installation, you need to configure the plugin with your Synoptic API credentials:

 1. Get your Synoptic API key (UUIDv4 format) from your Synoptic account
 2. Find your Synoptic stream ID (ULID format) from the stream URL on Synoptic
 3. Enter these values in the plugin settings page

### External Services

This plugin connects to the Synoptic API to forward your WordPress posts to your
Synoptic streams.

#### Data Transmission

The following data is sent to the Synoptic API (https://api.synoptic.com/graphql)
when a post is published:
 * Post title * Post excerpt * Post permalink

This data is sent only when a new post is published or when an existing post is 
updated to published status, and only if you have configured your API key and stream
ID.

#### Terms of Service and Privacy

The Synoptic service is provided by Synoptic, Inc:

## FAQ

### How does the plugin work?

event 2. Formats the post title, excerpt, and link into a structured message 3. 
Sends this data to the Synoptic API using the Synoptic API endpoint 4. Logs the 
result in the activity log
