The Blogs API provides programmatic access to blog posts categories and author data. Using the Zapier App Connector you can trigger actions from external sources and create or update blog content automatically. Start by authenticating the connection and selecting the blog endpoints you need then build a workflow that matches your publishing process.
Common tasks include creating new posts updating post details and checking for slug availability before publishing. You can map fields like title content and slug to Zapier steps and use time based or event based triggers to publish on a schedule.
Yes authentication is required to access protected endpoints. Configure OAuth or API keys in the App Connector and ensure the credentials are stored securely.
Test the connection by running a test in Zapier using a sample payload. Verify the response data matches what you expect and monitor for errors before going live.
Post updates and modifications can be sent via PUT and POST endpoints. Use the postId path parameter to target existing posts and update content or metadata.
Slug conflicts are resolved by checking slug existence before create and by updating the slug in the existing post when needed.
