Set permalink to Wordpress autopost

How to set a reasonable permalink on a post created programmatically using wp_insert_post in Wordpress?

The auto-generated permalink is http://home_url/year/month/.
All auto-generated posts created on the same date end up with the same permalink value.

You can't set the permalink on a per-post basis but what I would recommend is changing your WordPress permalink settings to something like:

/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%

or remove day /%year%/%monthnum%//%postname%- Wordpress will add -1, -2, -3 if a title repeats

Aka the date and name based common option in the dashboard.

You can adjust this in the WP admin interface under Settings → Permalinks panel ( or Options → Permalinks before WordPress 2.5)
