Authenticate using your Blogs API credentials via Zapier. Start by granting the Zapier App Connector access to your Blogs API account and selecting the required scopes.
In Zapier, authorize the Blogs API app to access your blogs data. Use OAuth or API keys as supported and keep tokens secure.
GET emails/builder; GET emails/builder.write; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; emails/schedule.readonly; GET emails/schedule; blogs/post.write; POST /blogs/posts; blogs/post-update.write; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; blogs/check-slug.readonly; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; blogs/category.readonly; GET /blogs/categories; blogs/author.readonly; GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: New blog post data is ready in your content workflow
Actions: Use POST /blogs/posts to create the post, verify the slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, and optionally assign author and category
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, author_id, category_id
Trigger: Blog post updated in your source system
Actions: Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update the post; if slug changes, re-check with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and adjust
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug
Trigger: Preparing to publish a blog post
Actions: Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug uniqueness; if it exists, prompt for a new slug; if not, proceed to create
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug

A concise glossary of terms and core processes for integrating Blogs API with Zapier App Connector, including endpoints, authentication, and data mappings.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that lets software applications talk to each other and perform actions.
The process of verifying identity to grant access to a service.
A URL-friendly identifier used to reference a post, category, or resource.
A lightweight API that sends real-time data from one app to another when an event occurs.
Automatically compile the latest published posts and share a digest with your team or subscribers.
Publish approved drafts automatically and keep metadata in sync across platforms.
Use author and category data to auto tag and classify posts during creation.
Grant Zapier App Connector permission to access Blogs API using OAuth or API keys.
Map core fields like title, content, slug, author, and category between the two apps.
Run tests, review logs, fix mapping issues, and switch to live once verified.
No heavy coding is required. Zapier App Connector provides a visual interface to connect endpoints and map fields. You can build reliable automations with triggers, actions, and searches without writing code. If you have unique needs, small scripting can be added, but most workflows are achievable with drag and drop.
Useful endpoints include creating posts with POST /blogs/posts, updating posts via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and slug validation with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. You can also fetch authors and categories to populate dropdowns and ensure consistent metadata across posts.
Use OAuth or API keys as supported by Blogs API and store tokens securely. In Zapier, prefer OAuth when available for automatic token refresh. Regularly rotate credentials and restrict scopes to the minimum required for the task.
Yes. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check if a slug is already in use before creating a post. If the slug exists, prompt for a new slug or automatically generate a unique slug before proceeding.
If a slug already exists, Blogs API will return a conflict. In your Zap, handle this by prompting for a new slug or by automatically generating one and retrying the creation call.
Start with a dry run in Zapier using test data. Validate all mappings, test each trigger and action, and review task history. Once everything passes, enable the Zap and monitor for any errors in real time.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
