 * Hi,
 * I recently changed from RSS to API posting and the plugin started to send each
   draft save as a new post.
 * As seen here [http://i.imgur.com/Dtbl2gE.png](http://i.imgur.com/Dtbl2gE.png)
   there were 4 saves, 2 of them without content.
 * Any clue on what could be causing this?

 * Hi [@eperezf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eperezf/),
 * This is expected. The Drafts are submitted to Instant Articles as Drafts, so 
   you can preview them on your Pages Manager before publishing.
 * Thank you for reaching out =)

 * Opening up this thread again as there seems to be a bug with WordPress’ autosave
   setting. The same post was posted 3 times as different articles because they 
   had different title names. One as “automatic draft”, one with an incomplete title
   and the last one with complete title that updates as the draft is updated.
 * Picture of the issue: [http://i.imgur.com/YHAbj3P.png](http://i.imgur.com/YHAbj3P.png)
 * As you can see, the three articles with the warning sign are the same article.“
   Borrador automático” is an autosaved draft without title that was saved later
   with an incomplete title but as a new article.

 * I am also having the same issue that that the autosaves are listed in the Instant
   Articles. In addition to that the articles are repeated in the list.

 * Marking as resolved since the behavior of how this plugin handles “Draft” posts
   has been changed. Details here:
