To connect Blogs API with the Zapier App Connector, generate a secure API key from the Blogs API dashboard and configure it in Zapier’s connection settings. Use the key in authorization headers to access write and read endpoints as needed.
Zapier securely stores and uses your Blogs API credentials. You’ll authenticate during setup, and you can reauthorize anytime from the Connections page. Use OAuth2 or API keys as supported by the Blogs API.

The Blogs API provides endpoints to manage blog content and metadata. When connected to the Zapier App Connector, you can create workflows that push drafts into Blogs API and update posts as needed. This enables automated publishing without writing code. The integration leverages authentication tokens and mapped fields to ensure data consistency.
For basic post creation, you typically need the post title, content, slug, and associations like author and category. The integration can reuse the create endpoint POST /blogs/posts and supports updating via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Ensure your payload includes required fields recognized by Blogs API.
Yes. You can verify slug uniqueness before creating a post by using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. This helps prevent duplicates and ensures clean URLs. If the slug exists, you can modify it or prompt for a different slug in your Zap.
Authentication typically uses an API key or OAuth token provided by Blogs API. In Zapier, you store this credential securely in a connection. Reauthorize if credentials expire, and follow the API docs for the correct header format (Authorization: Bearer
Yes. You can fetch authors via GET /blogs/authors and categories via GET /blogs/categories. These endpoints enable you to map author and category data when creating or updating posts in Zapier, keeping your content taxonomy consistent.
Rate limits vary by plan. In typical usage, plan for a few hundred requests per minute in automated workflows and implement retry logic in Zapier to handle transient errors gracefully.
Absolutely. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update an existing post. You can map fields to update status, content, or metadata and then publish changes via your Zapier workflow.
