To use the Blogs API with Zapier, obtain an API token and pass it in the Authorization header. Scope for this integration is emails/builder.readonly for reading and can be extended as needed.
Zapier App Connector uses OAuth 2.0 to authorize apps. After you grant permission, Zapier stores the access token securely and rotates credentials as needed.
– GET emails/builder; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET emails/schedule; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId
Trigger: A new blog post draft becomes available in the Blogs API for processing in Zapier.
Actions: Create a post with POST /blogs/posts, update with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, ensure slug uniqueness with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Method path: /blogs/posts
Required fields: title, content, slug, author_id, category_id
Trigger: Post data changes in Blogs API should propagate to Zapier workflows.
Actions: Update with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, validate changes with slug checks as needed.
Method path: /blogs/posts/:postId
Required fields: postId and fields to update such as title or content
Trigger: Before publishing, verify slug availability via the Blogs API.
Actions: Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify, then POST /blogs/posts to publish or update slug as needed.
Method path: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Required fields: slug
Automate content publishing across channels without writing code.
Streamline workflows by connecting blogs, emails, and schedules in one place.
Create reusable templates and automated error handling with Zapier tasks.
This glossary explains common terms used when linking Blogs API with the Zapier App Connector.
API stands for Application Programming Interface. It lets apps talk to each other over a defined interface.
A slug is the URL friendly version of a post title used in blog URLs.
An endpoint is a specific URL in an API that performs a task like create read update or delete.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that lets apps access user data with tokens while keeping credentials secure.
Publish a new blog post and automatically send its summary to your email list using the emails builder.
Aggregate daily posts and send a digest to subscribers with scheduled emails.
Check slug existence and auto generate clean slugs for new posts.
In Zapier, create a connection to the Blogs API via the Zapier App Connector and authorize access.
Define how to map title content slug and meta data to Zapier actions.
Choose triggers for new posts updates and slug checks and configure actions to create or update posts.
You can use endpoints like GET emails/builder for templates and GET emails/schedule for scheduling. For posts, use POST /blogs/posts to create and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update. Start by creating a connection in Zapier and mapping the fields. If you do not see posts in your list, confirm that the API token has the required scopes and that endpoints are enabled for your account.
Authentication is handled with an API token in the Blogs API. In Zapier you will follow an OAuth flow to securely store tokens. Ensure the token has the required scopes and rotate credentials as recommended.
Yes. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update a post. Include the postId and the fields to change. After updating, verify that the post reflects in connected apps and channels.
Rate limits may apply. If you hit limits, stagger requests and use caching where appropriate. Adjust polling frequency in Zapier and respect the scope permissions for the endpoints.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. If the slug exists, update the slug and recheck until you have a unique slug for publishing.
Yes. You can fetch authors with GET /blogs/authors and categories with GET /blogs/categories. Map these fields to your Zapier actions to populate author and category data.
Endpoint documentation is available in the Blogs API docs and in the Zapier app reference for this integration. If you cannot locate it, contact support for access.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
