This unlocks blog-to-email workflows and content automation without writing code. You can orchestrate posts and emails in tandem, ensuring campaigns stay synchronized with your latest blog content.
No heavy coding is required. The integration uses API keys and a visual workflow builder in Agency Elephant to authenticate and map fields. If needed, you can customize triggers and actions, but most teams can complete setup using built-in templates and guides.
Supported endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, GET emails/schedule, GET blogs/post.write, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. We tailor the endpoint usage to your chosen workflows and can extend coverage as needed.
