The Blogs API authentication relies on OAuth tokens and API keys. Scope granted: emails/builder.readonly. Use the smallest scope required and rotate credentials regularly to maintain security.
Brex authentication uses OAuth and API tokens. Store credentials securely, apply least privilege, and rotate keys periodically. Configure the app connection in your Brex account to enable seamless data flow.
Commonly used endpoints in this Brex + Blogs API integration include creating, updating, and retrieving blog posts, slug checks, categorization, and author data. Review the list below and map fields to your content workflow. Not all endpoints are required for every page.
Trigger: when a new blog draft is created in Brex. Action: call POST /blogs/posts to create a new blog in Blogs API with title, content, and metadata.
Actions: map Brex fields to the Blogs API payload, then publish or save as draft. Use a simple mapping: title, content, slug, and authorId. You can also attach categories via the blogs/categories endpoint.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, authorId, status
Trigger: a Brex post is updated. Action: send PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update the corresponding post in Blogs API.
Actions: sync changed fields (title, content, slug, categories) and optionally re-publish. Ensure postId matches the target record.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug
Trigger: before creating a post in Brex. Action: verify slug existence via GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Actions: if slug exists, generate a new slug or prompt for adjustment. If available, proceed with POST /blogs/posts.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug
No custom coding is required to connect Brex and Blogs API. Use visual automations to map fields and automate actions such as creating and publishing posts.
Speed up content workflows with automated publishing from Brex to Blogs API, reducing manual steps and errors.
Centralize content management by syncing post data, authors, and categories across Brex and Blogs API in one place.
This glossary defines the key terms used in this guide, including API, endpoint, slug, OAuth, and related concepts to help you implement the Brex–Blogs API workflow.
Application Programming Interface. A set of rules and tools that lets apps talk to each other and exchange data.
A specific URL path in an API that performs a function, such as retrieving posts or creating a post.
A URL-friendly string derived from the post title used to build clean, readable post URLs.
OAuth is an open standard for token-based authorization that lets apps access data without revealing user credentials.
When a new Brex task is created, automatically generate a blog draft in Blogs API and attach it to the task for review.
Publish to Blogs API and mirror posts to additional channels or CMSs using endpoint integrations.
Create reusable templates that automate the publish-to-schedule workflow with minimal setup.
Obtain API credentials for Brex and Blogs API and connect them in your integration settings.
Map Brex fields to the Blogs API payload and set up required scopes and permissions for each endpoint.
Run tests, verify data flow, monitor logs, and deploy the automation to production.
No coding is required for a basic Brex-to-Blogs API connection. The integration uses visual builders to map fields and automate actions such as creating and publishing posts. If you need deeper customization, you can extend the workflow with simple scripts, but most teams can get started without writing code.
You will need at least a read/write scope on the Blogs API for content operations and proper authentication for Brex. Limit permissions to only what is needed and rotate credentials regularly. Also configure IP restrictions and audit logs in both systems.
Use the slug-check endpoint to verify uniqueness before creating a post. If the slug exists, modify it or append a numeric suffix. This reduces the risk of collisions and ensures clean URLs.
Yes. You can configure a workflow that creates a post in Blogs API directly from Brex. You can also automate updates and re-publish when changes occur in Brex.
Key endpoints include POST /blogs/posts for creation, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists for slug validation. Additional endpoints for authors, categories, and slug checks can help extend your automation.
Publishing limits depend on your Blogs API plan and the rate limits set by the provider. In most cases, batch publishes are possible within the allowed quota. Always test with a small dataset first.
API credentials are managed in the respective admin consoles. Generate tokens, apply least-privilege permissions, and rotate tokens periodically. If you are using IP restrictions, update them accordingly when credentials rotate.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
