Establish a secure connection by generating an API key or OAuth token for the Blogs API and granting the Journey app the required scope: emails/builder.readonly.
Journey stores credentials securely, using encryption and token rotation to protect access to the Blogs API.
GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; GET emails/schedule; GET blogs/categories; GET blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: a new article is ready in Journey.
Action: POST /blogs/posts to create the post in Blogs API.
POST /blogs/posts
title, slug, content, excerpt, author_id, categories
Trigger: Journey edits a post and needs an update in Blogs API.
Action: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to apply edits.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, slug, content
Trigger: you’re about to publish a post from Journey.
Action: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug
No coding required — set up automations with drag and drop triggers and actions in Journey to publish posts automatically.
Consistent publishing across platforms and CMS content without custom development.
Centralized content governance with version history and rollback options.
Learn the core terms used to connect Blogs API with Journey: API, endpoints, triggers, actions, and data fields.
An API is a defined interface that lets two software systems exchange data and commands.
An endpoint is a specific URL in an API that performs a function, such as creating or updating a blog post.
A slug is the URL-friendly identifier for a blog post, used in the slug field and URL.
An author represents the content creator and is often referenced by an author_id in posts.
Use Journey to generate concise summaries and publish as blog posts via Blogs API.
Automatically assign categories and tags based on article content using endpoint data.
After publishing, push notifications or tasks to share posts across channels.
Add the Blogs API credentials in Journey settings, select the scope (emails/builder.readonly), and authorize the connection.
Map Journey fields to Blogs API fields (title, content, slug, author_id) and set up triggers.
Run test actions, check responses, and review logs to ensure successful synchronization.
The Blogs API is the set of endpoints that lets you create, update, and manage blog content from external systems. In this guide, it is used to automate blog publishing from Journey without writing code. You’ll authenticate once and then use defined endpoints to push posts.
No full coding is required. The integration uses no-code automations in Journey that map triggers and actions to API calls. You can set up what to send, when to send it, and how to handle responses using simple visual builders.
Key posting endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update them. Slug checks use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to prevent duplicates. You may also pull authors and categories as needed.
Testing is performed by running the configured triggers and inspecting API responses and logs. Use sample posts, verify created content, and confirm fields map correctly. Check for errors and adjust mappings as needed.
Yes. If a Journey draft or trigger updates a post, the corresponding PUT /blogs/posts/:postId endpoint can be used to apply changes in Blogs API and keep content in sync.
Slug collisions are prevented by checking the slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing. If a conflict exists, you can modify the slug or implement a retry strategy.
Logs and errors appear in Journey automation history and the Blogs API response logs. Use these to troubleshoot failed calls, verify credentials, and adjust rate limits or mappings.
