No-code approach with the Zapier App Connector means you can connect Blogs API without writing code. Configure triggers for new posts or updates and map fields to create, update, or publish posts automatically.\n\nUse ready-made actions to assign categories, set authors, and schedule publication, all without touching the codebase.
For basic publishing you typically use POST /blogs/posts to create posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update them. You can validate slugs with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to avoid duplicates.\n\nCombine these endpoints with triggers in Zapier to automate the publishing workflow end-to-end.
Slug existence checks help avoid duplicate URLs. Call GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing a new post. If the slug exists, adjust the slug or title and retry.\n\nThis prevents conflicts and preserves clean, SEO-friendly URLs.
Yes, you can schedule posts using the blogs/schedule endpoints to control live dates.\n\nUse Zapier to automate delays, publish times, and recurring scheduling aligned with your editorial calendar.
Authors are managed via GET /blogs/authors and related endpoints; you can assign authorId to posts.\n\nKeep author metadata in sync across posts with update calls and reflect changes in listings and search results.
Categories are available via GET /blogs/categories; assign categoryId to posts.\n\nUpdate categories as needed and have changes propagate to posts automatically for consistent taxonomy.
In Zapier, you’ll see the endpoint actions and triggers you enabled from the Blogs API connection, including posts, authors, and categories.\n\nTest endpoints like GET /blogs/posts and POST /blogs/posts to verify responses during setup.
