To securely connect, obtain your API key, set the proper OAuth scopes, and configure app permissions in the Blogs API developer console.
Grant the HTML to Image app access to Blogs API by supplying credentials and storing tokens securely for ongoing requests.
Endpoints commonly used include creating posts, updating posts, checking slug availability, retrieving authors and categories, and validating URLs to ensure thumbnails render correctly.
When a new blog post is created (POST /blogs/posts), HTML to Image can generate a hero image automatically as part of the publishing workflow.
Actions include creating the image, storing the result, and attaching the image URL to the post.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, author, slug
Trigger on post updates (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId) to refresh the image whenever content changes.
Actions include regenerating the image, updating the image URL, and notifying downstream systems.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content
Trigger on a schedule (cron-like) to generate visuals in advance of promotions.
Actions include queuing generation, storing assets, and publishing ready-to-use images.
POST /blogs/posts
scheduleTime, postId
Faster content-to-visuals workflows without writing a line of code.
Consistent brand visuals across posts and channels with automated image generation.
Easy testing and iteration with sandbox endpoints and clear data mappings.
A quick glossary of API terms, triggers, endpoints, and processes to help you implement the integration smoothly.
A URL and HTTP method used to perform a specific action in an API.
An event that starts an automation flow, such as a new post or a content update.
The process of proving identity to access APIs, typically via keys or OAuth.
A data element used in requests and responses, like title, content, or slug.
Automatically generate a hero image the moment a new post is published to boost engagement.
Regenerate visuals when the post content changes to keep visuals aligned with text.
Schedule image generation ahead of campaigns to ensure ready-to-publish assets.
Obtain an API key and client credentials from Blogs API and configure them in the HTML to Image app.
Map triggers and actions to the available endpoints such as creating posts and updating thumbnails.
Run tests with sample data, verify image generation, and deploy to production.
To connect, you’ll need a Blogs API key and the HTML to Image app credentials. Configure OAuth scopes and permissions in the Blogs API dashboard and securely store tokens. Then map the blog post fields to the image generation inputs in your automation flow.
Authentication is typically done via API keys or OAuth. Ensure the app uses restricted scopes (read/write as needed) and rotates credentials regularly. Use secure storage and follow best practices for token handling.
Common endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to prevent duplicates, and GET /blogs/authors or GET /blogs/categories to enrich posts with metadata.
Yes. You can schedule image generation by triggering posts at specific times or by using a cron-like schedule to generate visuals ahead of publish dates.
Test by creating a test post with sample data, verify the image is generated and stored in your media library, then perform end-to-end checks in a staging environment before production.
API limits depend on your Blogs API plan. Review the provider’s pricing page and monitor usage via dashboards. Implement retry logic and backoff to stay within quotas.
