To access the Blogs API you need to authorize the Zapier App Connector with the requested scope: emails/builder.readonly. Use OAuth 2.0 or an API key as supported by the provider to grant read access to email templates and builders.
Zapier App Connector stores connection credentials securely and uses OAuth 2.0 or API keys to authenticate with the Blogs API. Ensure the token is valid and refresh tokens as needed.
Core endpoints used in this integration include: GET emails/builder, emails/builder.write, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, emails/schedule.readonly, GET emails/schedule, blogs/post.write, POST /blogs/posts, blogs/post-update.write, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, blogs/check-slug.readonly, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, blogs/category.readonly, GET /blogs/categories, blogs/author.readonly, GET /blogs/authors. These endpoints enable creating and updating blog posts, managing emails associated with posts, and listing categories and authors for metadata.
Trigger: a new email draft is saved in the Emails Builder, which then uses POST /blogs/posts to publish a new article.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts to publish, POST emails/builder to format emails, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability.
Methods/Paths: POST /blogs/posts, POST /emails/builder, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
title, content, slug, authorId, categoryId
Trigger: when a post is updated via blogs/post-update.write, push changes to the published post.
Actions: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug validity, GET /blogs/categories to map categories.
Methods/Paths: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories
postId, title, content, slug
Actions: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors to populate metadata on posts.
Methods/Paths: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors
categoryId, authorId
No coding required. Build automated flows using a visual editor to create posts, schedule emails, and update metadata.
Leverage REST endpoints via a simple interface to power content automation across apps.
Scale content ops by combining blog and email endpoints for consistent publishing.
Key API concepts you will see in this guide and in your Zapier connections.
A specific URL that performs an action in the API, such as creating a blog post or listing authors.
A URL friendly string derived from the post title used in the blog URL.
A callback URL configured to receive real time updates from the API.
A secure authorization framework that lets apps access user data with tokens.
Capture email summaries from a weekly digest and automatically publish a blog post with a scheduled timestamp.
When a post is updated, trigger an update in your email campaigns so subscribers receive the latest content.
Use notes collected via email to draft posts, assign authors, and publish once approved.
In Zapier, add a new connection for Blogs API and authorize with the requested scope emails/builder.readonly.
Select a trigger such as new blog post or updated post, and map actions to create or update posts and manage emails.
Run tests with sample data and enable the Zap in production.
The Blogs API exposes endpoints for emails and blog content such as GET emails/builder for retrieving email templates and POST /blogs/posts for publishing new posts. You can also manage email templates with POST emails/builder and update post content with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slugs before publishing. These endpoints enable end-to-end content workflows without code.
No coding is required when using the Zapier App Connector. You configure triggers and actions in a visual editor, map fields, and let the platform handle API calls. For advanced scenarios, you can compose multi-step flows across emails and blogs endpoints.
The primary scope shown here is emails/builder.readonly to read email templates. Depending on needs you may request additional scopes for write access to blogs and emails endpoints. Always follow the principle of least privilege.
Yes. You can call GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing to ensure the slug is unique. If the slug exists, you can modify it in your workflow before creating the post.
Zapier stores tokens securely and refreshes them automatically where supported. Use the standard OAuth 2.0 flow or API keys as configured by the provider, and rotate credentials as part of your security practices.
APIs may enforce rate limits. If you hit limits, implement exponential backoff in your Zapier steps and consider batching updates or spreading requests over time to avoid throttling.
Test the workflow with sample data in a sandbox connection. Use real-world edge cases, verify slug checks, author mappings, and category associations. Once validated, deploy the Zap to production with monitoring in place.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
