Frequently Asked Questions

What authentication methods are supported between the Blogs API and Leader CRM?

Blogs API and Leader CRM support API key or OAuth-based authentication. You can generate credentials in your developer console and securely store them in Zapier or your integration platform. Use least-privilege scopes to limit access to only the necessary endpoints for posts, authors, and categories. Regularly rotate credentials and monitor for unusual activity.

For content creation and CRM syncing, endpoints like POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, and GET /blogs/authors are highly useful. Pair these with Leader CRM endpoints for creating or updating records to reflect new posts, authors, and categories in real time.

Yes. By using a trigger on author changes (new or updated author in Blogs API) and an upsert action in Leader CRM, you can keep author records synchronized automatically. This ensures biographies, photos, and social links stay current across both systems.

No coding is required if you use a no-code integration platform. Map fields, set up triggers, and configure actions with a visual builder. Advanced users can add custom logic via optional code steps if needed.

Test the workflow with a sandbox or test post and verify data mapping. Use built-in test runners, review logs, and run end-to-end tests to confirm posts, authors, and categories flow correctly from Blogs API to Leader CRM before enabling production.

If a blog post is deleted, you can choose to archive the CRM record or flag it as deprecated. If updated, ensure the updated fields (title, URL, publish date) push to the CRM to keep records accurate and current.

Most integration platforms provide a logs section and error alerts. Use these to monitor failed calls, rate limits, and data mismatches. Set up email or Slack alerts for critical failures to respond quickly.
