Ideas for Arc XP

Redirect field should be editable before publishing

At the Washington Post, we have several workflows that use redirect stubs. It would be helpful if we could add the redirect before publishing.

    Duplicated by SB-I-253.


    Along with this, it'd be awesome to be able to schedule start and end times for a redirect using the Draft API. I create redirects via Postman it would be amazing if I didn't have to set a reminder to create, change or remove them and could just include that information as part of the API request.

    We would find the ability to be able to use the redirect before publishing very helpful too.

    Ideally, we would like the ability to be able to schedule and publish an article with just a primary site/section, headline, image and redirect link.

    Would this be solved by other work we've discussed for alerts and stubs though?
