 * I want to publish content on my site with WordPress’s wp-json/wp/v2/posts API,
   but I am getting the following error. How can I solve the problem?
 * { code: ‘db_insert_error’, message: ‘The post could not be inserted into the 
   database.’, data: { status: 500 }, additional_data: [ ‘WordPress database error:
   The following field could not be processed: post_content. The value sent may 
   be too long or contain invalid data.’ ] }

 * Please tell us how you made an API request to insert a post. How did you authorize
   the request? In particular what sort of content did you try to insert? What other
   data was sent with the request?
