Use API keys or OAuth tokens to securely authorize Fergus to access the Blogs API. Store credentials securely and grant only the scopes needed, such as emails/builder.readonly and blog readwrite permissions. Rotate credentials regularly and use secret managers to keep keys out of source control.
For basic sync start with GET emails/builder to retrieve templates and for posts create with POST /blogs/posts. You can also check slug existence with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before creating to prevent duplicates.
URL slug existence uses GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to confirm uniqueness. If it exists, update the slug or title accordingly to maintain SEO and consistency.
Yes, you can schedule posts or newsletters by combining blogs/post endpoints with the emails builder schedule. Create a scheduling plan in Fergus that triggers publication or email distribution at set times.
No coding is required for the core flows. Use the provided endpoints and a no-code automation layer. If you need advanced customization, you can add small scripts, but most teams ship with a no-code setup.
Test endpoints in a sandbox environment or a staging Fergus workspace to simulate triggers and actions. Verify data formats, authentication, and error handling before going live.
Endpoint details are listed on this page under the endpoint list and in the Fergus connection settings. Documentation for each endpoint covers required fields and response formats.
