Trigger: when a new author or category is added in Formbricks, check against Blogs API and sync if supported
GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/categories
authorName, authorEmail, categoryName
Faster publishing with visual workflows; no coding required to automate posts and updates
Unified content and marketing data flow so teams can collaborate without custom integrations
Real-Time synchronization of authors and categories keeps taxonomy consistent across platforms
Key elements include posts, authors, categories, slugs, and publish dates. Core processes cover create, read, update, delete, and slug validation to ensure clean URLs and SEO.
A publishable article with a title, body, slug, metadata, and scheduling/publishing details
The writer credited for a post, typically with a name and short bio linked to an author profile
A taxonomy label used to group posts for navigation, SEO, and organization
A URL-friendly identifier derived from the post title for permalinks
Automatically publish drafts created in Formbricks to Blogs API using POST /blogs/posts, reducing manual steps
Sync edits from Formbricks to existing blog posts with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to keep content fresh
Automatically align authors and categories between Formbricks and Blogs API using GET endpoints for lookup and mapping
Obtain your Blogs API keys or OAuth tokens and configure them in Formbricks under Connections
Enable the endpoints you need (e.g., POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/authors) and set up field mappings
Run tests, verify data flows, and monitor for errors before going fully live
Blogs API supports multiple authentication methods, including API keys and OAuth tokens. Use the appropriate scopes for the actions you perform and test credentials in Formbricks. If you see permission errors, reissue credentials and verify the scopes granted.\nTwo: Ensure your connection in Formbricks uses the correct base URL and includes the required headers for each request.
Yes. You can schedule posts by providing a publishDate when creating or updating posts via POST /blogs/posts or PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Use Formbricks workflows to trigger these calls at the desired time.\nSecond: Verify the Blogs API supports scheduling for your account and monitor scheduled jobs for failures.
Core endpoints for post creation and updates include POST /blogs/posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. You can also verify slug existence with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.\nTip: validate required fields like title and content before posting.
To sync authors and categories, fetch current lists with GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories, then map IDs back to Formbricks. Create or update local mappings so future posts reference the correct IDs.\nRegularly run a reconciliation to keep mappings current.
No heavy coding is required. Formbricks provides visual builders and a Zapier App Connector to handle most integrations. Some advanced workflows may need small configuration tweaks but no custom code.
API endpoints and permissions are documented in the Blogs API docs. Look at the endpoint method and required scopes (read vs write) and test each call in a staging environment before going live.
Typical errors include authentication failures, missing required fields, and slug conflicts. Check credentials, confirm required fields, and use the slug check endpoint to ensure uniqueness.
