Use your Blogs API credentials to authorize requests from Rankr. The scope in this example is emails builder readonly and more may be required for write actions.
To connect Rankr with the Blogs API obtain an API key or OAuth credentials and configure them in the Rankr app connector to authorize access to the required endpoints.
Key endpoints used with Rankr include GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, GET emails/schedule, GET blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. Additional endpoints like GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors refine metadata for richer automation.
Trigger when a new post is created in Rankr to publish via Blogs API
Actions include POST /blogs/posts to create content, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure a unique slug
POST /blogs/posts
title content author slug status
Trigger: category or author changes in Blogs API
Actions: GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to pull updates and map to Rankr fields
GET /blogs/categories
id name description slug
Trigger: when creating or updating posts
Actions: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify uniqueness
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug

Obtain credentials for the Blogs API and Rankr then configure in the app connector
Select endpoints like POST /blogs/posts GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to map to Rankr fields
Run tests to verify data flows then deploy to live automation
No coding is required. The Rankr app connector handles authentication and mapping so you can set up automated publishing with clicks not code. Use the Blogs API endpoints through the connector to create update and schedule posts and monitor results from the Rankr dashboard.
For post publishing you typically need endpoints like POST /blogs/posts to create content PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug existence. You may also fetch metadata with GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to populate fields.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify if a slug is available. If the slug exists you can adjust the title or slug and retry. The API will return status and slug information.
Yes you can. Use GET /blogs/categories to pull category data and GET /blogs/authors to pull author data. Map these to your Rankr fields to keep metadata accurate and SEO aligned.
Scheduling can be driven from Blogs API capabilities and Rankr workflows. You can queue posts for publish at a chosen time and align with campaigns. Use the ranking app connector to coordinate publish times.
Authentication should use token based methods such as API keys or OAuth. The recommended approach is OAuth with token rotation for security and reliability. The connector handles token refresh automatically.
Test by running a small end to end flow. Create a test post publish, verify it appears in Blogs API, and check the Rankr logs. Adjust mapping and retry until data flows correctly.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
