Authenticate with your Blogs API credentials (API key or OAuth) to authorize requests from Glip through the Zapier App Connector. Use secure storage and rotate credentials regularly.
Connect Glip in your Zapier account to grant the connector access to Glip data and actions securely, with the least privilege required.
Key endpoints used in this integration include: POST /blogs/posts to create posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability; GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories to fetch metadata; GET /blogs/posts to retrieve posts; and GET /blogs/categories for category data.
Trigger: When new blog details are available in Glip, create a blog post in Blogs API.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts to publish, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs, GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories for metadata.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, authorId, categoryIds
Trigger: Edits in Glip reflected in Blogs API posts.
Actions: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, POST /blogs/posts to create new drafts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists for slug checks.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug
Trigger: Validate slug availability during draft creation.
Actions: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to confirm slug availability, fetch authors/categories as needed.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug
Build powerful automations without writing code by connecting Glip to Blogs API through Zapier.
Streamline content creation and team collaboration in a single, repeatable workflow.
Scale publishing with reusable triggers, actions, and templates that adapt as your content grows.
This glossary explains the core elements used in the integration: endpoints (API routes), triggers (events), actions (tasks), slug checks, and metadata such as authors and categories.
Application Programming Interface – a defined set of rules that allows Zapier and Glip to communicate with the Blogs API to create, read, update, or delete posts and related data.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used to generate readable and SEO-friendly links.
An event in one app that starts an automation in Zapier.
An operation performed in response to a trigger within the integration.
Capture ideas in Glip and push as blog post drafts via POST /blogs/posts; include draft content with title, snippet, and author mapping.
When a blog author updates their bio in Blogs API, trigger a notification in Glip to keep the team informed.
Before publishing, verify slug availability with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to avoid duplicates.
Obtain API credentials and configure app permissions in Zapier for secure access.
Select triggers and actions using the documented endpoints to fit your workflow.
Run tests, validate slug checks, and deploy to production.
The primary endpoint to create a post is POST /blogs/posts. Use it to publish new content from Glip into Blogs API and then route notifications back to Glip as needed. Ensure required fields like title and content are provided and map authorIds and categoryIds for proper metadata. If your workflow needs drafts before publish, you can create a draft via the same endpoint and finalize later.
Slug existence is checked with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. Before publishing, call this endpoint to ensure the slug is unique. If the slug already exists, adjust the title or slug generation rules. This helps prevent duplicate posts and broken links.
Yes. You can update a published post with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Provide the postId and changed fields such as title, content, or slug. After updating, the changes will reflect in your blog feed and any connected Glip notifications.
No custom code is required. The Zapier App Connector handles the integration between Glip and Blogs API using the documented endpoints. You can configure triggers, actions, and data mappings directly within Zapier’s interface.
You can pull authors and categories via GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories. Map these to Glip fields to enrich posts with author details and category tagging, enabling more informative collaborations in Glip.
Zapier provides logs and error messages for each task run. Open the Zap history to see detailed error messages, retry attempts, and timestamps. Use these insights to adjust data mappings, endpoints, or credentials as needed.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
