Use API keys or OAuth tokens to securely authorize requests from CINC to Blogs API. Store credentials safely and rotate credentials regularly.
Connect CINC to Blogs API using the app’s OAuth flow or API key pairing, depending on your setup. Ensure the app has the correct scopes.
Key endpoints for integration include: GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /blogs/post-update.write, GET /blogs/check-slug.readonly
Trigger: New draft or published post in CINC
Action: Create a post in Blogs API
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, excerpt, author, slug, tags
Trigger: Post edited in CINC
Action: Update blog post in Blogs API
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug
Trigger: On-demand data fetch
Action: Get categories and authors from Blogs API
GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors
categories, authors
Automate publishing workflows without writing code
Centralized content management between Blogs API and CINC
Faster time-to-publish and improved consistency
Definitions of common terms used in the Blogs API and CINC integration.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that allow your app (CINC) to communicate with Blogs API.
Slug: a URL-friendly identifier derived from your post title used in the blog URL.
An API route you call to perform a specific action, such as creating or retrieving posts.
OAuth 2.0 standard for authorizing apps to access user data without sharing passwords.
When a new draft is ready in CINC, automatically push to Blogs API and publish.
When a post is updated in Blogs API, reflect changes in CINC drafts.
Pull categories and authors into CINC to power a content calendar.
Obtain API keys and configure OAuth scopes for the Blogs API in CINC.
Use the CINC connector to authenticate against Blogs API and test endpoints.
Create automations to publish, update, and enrich blog data.
You can automate post creation, updates, and data enrichment between Blogs API and CINC. Use the available endpoints to publish content and sync data. Leverage no-code rules to trigger actions when drafts are ready or when posts are published, reducing manual steps.
No heavy coding is required. The no-code connectors in the CINC platform let you map fields and trigger actions with simple setups. If you need custom logic, you can add small scripts or use webhooks to extend functionality.
Start with creating a post in Blogs API (POST /blogs/posts). Then configure updates (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId) and slug validation (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists) to prevent duplicates.
Use API keys or OAuth tokens, rotate credentials, and store securely. Limit token scopes to minimal permissions and monitor for unauthorized activity.
Yes. Fetch categories and authors (GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors) to enrich a content calendar and attribution. Sync metadata like author names and category labels into CINC fields for better planning.
Implement retries with exponential backoff and handle 429 rate limits gracefully. Log errors, alert on repeated failures, and retry failed actions to ensure reliability.
Check your Blogs API rate limits in your plan and monitor request counts. If you approach limits, spread requests over time or upgrade your plan.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
