Enter your Blogs API credentials and authorize access to Zapier.
Choose triggers like new post or new author, and actions like publish or update to assemble your workflow.
Run tests, verify data flows, and deploy to automate your blog processes.
Answer: To authenticate, generate an API key or OAuth token from your Blogs API settings and configure it in Zapier’s app connection. Ensure the token has read/write permissions for posts, categories, and authors. If you encounter auth errors, verify the client ID and secret, refresh tokens if needed, and re-authorize the connection to regain access.
Answer: For publishing posts, you typically use POST /blogs/posts to create a new post and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update an existing one. You may also need GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs before publishing.
