Authenticate using OAuth2 and an API key with the scope emails/builder.readonly. Store credentials securely in LeadSquared and test access to blog data.
In LeadSquared, create an API connection for the Blogs API app, generate client credentials, and grant the necessary scopes for blog data, categories, and authors.

Automate blog-driven campaigns without writing code.
Real-time data syncing between your blog platform and LeadSquared for timely marketing actions.
Consolidated analytics and easier reporting across content and contacts.
Key elements include endpoints, data fields, authentication, and event triggers; processes cover setup, testing, and deployment.
An API is a set of rules that lets software programs communicate.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework for secure access to API resources.
An endpoint is a URL where a specific API function can be accessed.
Scope defines the access level granted by the token.
Automatically push new blog post snippets to campaigns to boost engagement.
Use category data to assign leads to targeted nurturing streams.
Send timely emails when a new post goes live to re-engage subscribers.
Obtain your API key, client ID, and secret from the Blogs API app and configure in LeadSquared.
Set the required scopes (e.g., emails/builder.readonly) and map endpoints for blog data sync.
Run tests in a sandbox, verify data flow, then enable live syncing.
To authenticate, obtain your API credentials from the Blogs API app and configure them in LeadSquared. Use OAuth 2.0 for secure access and apply the appropriate scope such as emails/builder.readonly. Test the connection using a read operation to verify permissions. If issues arise, confirm client ID and secret accuracy and ensure the correct redirect URI is set.
Key endpoints for blog syncing include GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/categories. These let you create, update, verify, and categorize blog content in LeadSquared. Also synchronize author and category data to enhance contact records and segmentation.
A developer is not strictly required; many steps can be done in the UI with careful field mapping and endpoint selection. For larger data loads or complex logic, a developer can help optimize field mappings, error handling, and retries.
Yes, you can test in a sandbox environment using test credentials and a staging LeadSquared instance. Validate all mappings and automations before moving to production to avoid impacting live data.
Common required scopes include emails/builder.readonly for reading blog content and blogs/post.write or blogs/post-update.write for pushing updates. Always apply the principle of least privilege and rotate credentials regularly.
If conflicts occur, upsert using a unique key such as postId and track lastModified timestamps to reconcile data. Implement retries and idempotent operations to keep data consistent.
Sync frequency depends on your workflow. Real-time triggers can push updates as soon as events occur, or you can schedule periodic pulls for updates and maintenance tasks. Monitor health dashboards to adjust cadence.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
