I started submitting articles on Tuesday for Apple News and they were immediately put on hold pending approval.
That approval has never come and now I am getting an error message saying there is an API error. Meanwhile, articles are piling up.
First, what does the approval process entail? There is nothing from Apple, and no expectation were set. Meanwhile, the RSS feed has stopped refreshing the Apple News content. (Is the best way to proceed is to simply stop using the Apple News Format and go back to RSS feeds?)
Update: this is what I got from Apple:
