Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Blogs API integration with EspoCRM used for?

The Blogs API integration with EspoCRM enables you to automate content workflows, manage email templates, and publish blog posts directly from EspoCRM. It creates a seamless bridge between your blog content and customer communications. With the included endpoints, you can fetch, create, update, and schedule emails and blog posts without writing code. This helps marketing and product teams stay aligned and respond faster to reader engagement.

For a basic sync, you’ll rely on core endpoints such as GET emails/builder to retrieve templates, POST emails/builder to create or update a template, POST /blogs/posts to publish a post, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs. Scheduling endpoints like GET emails/schedule support coordinating send times with new blog content. These components cover the essential data flows between EspoCRM and Blogs API.

Authentication is established by exchanging API credentials between EspoCRM and Blogs API and assigning the proper scopes (for example, emails/builder.readonly). Once the handshake succeeds, EspoCRM can safely call endpoints to read templates and post content. Regularly rotate credentials and monitor access logs to maintain secure operation.

Yes. You can schedule blog updates and email campaigns to go out at chosen times. By coordinating the Blogs API schedule endpoints with EspoCRM’s workflows, you can ensure readers receive notifications when new posts publish. This reduces manual steps and improves consistency in outreach.

Mapped fields typically include templateId, locationId, postId, slug, title, and content. These mappings ensure that blog posts and email templates correspond correctly across systems, and that scheduling and campaign data align with published content.

There is a no-code pathway using the ready-made endpoints and Zapier-style app connectors. You can configure triggers, actions, and data mappings in a visual builder without writing code, making it accessible to non-developers.

Email templates are managed via the emails/builder endpoints. You can create, update, and tailor templates, then hook them to blog posts and campaigns in EspoCRM. The content, subject lines, and dynamic fields can be customized to fit your brand and messaging.
