Authenticate Blogs API with OAuth 2.0, granting read/write access to emails and blog posts so your workflows can create, update, and publish content from Exchange-triggered events.
Authenticate in Exchange Online using OAuth 2.0 or a service principal with the emails scope, enabling secure access to incoming mail and post data for content automation.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /emails/builder/data, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/posts. These endpoints support reading emails, creating and updating blog posts, validating slugs, and retrieving taxonomy data.
Trigger: New email arrives in Exchange. Title becomes the post title (subject), and body becomes the article content.
Actions: Create blog post (POST /blogs/posts); optionally set slug and publish status.
Methods: POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: subject, body, author, category
Trigger: Daily summary email or scheduled digest.
Actions: Create posts for each digest item; optionally schedule publication.
Methods: POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: postDate, summary, links
Trigger: Email that requests an update to an existing post.
Actions: Update post via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; update slug if needed.

Key fields: postId, content, status
Create and update blog posts automatically from emails without writing a single line of code.
Leverage triggers, actions, and endpoints to build powerful, scalable content workflows.
Distribute content across channels with consistent formatting and metadata.
This section defines API endpoints, triggers, actions, and the data fields used to move information between Blogs API and Microsoft Exchange.
A URL path you call to perform a specific operation in the API.
An event that starts a workflow, such as a new email arriving in Exchange.
An article stored in Blogs API that can be published, updated, or archived.
The URL-friendly identifier for a post used in slugs and SEO.
Turn incoming messages into draft posts with subject as title and content as the article body for quick publishing.
Aggregate email digests into structured blog posts and publish on a schedule.
Capture submissions via Exchange emails or forms and convert them into collaborative posts.
Register the Blogs API in your account and obtain client_id and client_secret for OAuth authentication.
Set the required scopes (emails/builder.readonly) and map endpoints to Exchange triggers.
Run end-to-end tests, review logs, and enable the zap for live usage.
No-code is enough to connect Blogs API with Microsoft Exchange when using the Zapier App Connector. By configuring OAuth credentials and mapping the emails endpoint to blog post creation, you can automate content from your inbox. If you need a quick start, use the GET emails/builder endpoint to preview available email data before posting. You can also test with sample emails to ensure correct title/body mapping.
Essential endpoints typically include: GET emails/builder to fetch email content, POST /blogs/posts to create a post, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update as needed. You may also use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs before publishing and POST /emails/builder/data to attach metadata if required.
Authentication uses OAuth 2.0. You’ll exchange a client_id and client_secret for an access token, then include the token in API requests. Ensure the token has the necessary scopes, such as emails/builder.readonly for reading emails and blogs/post-write for creating posts.
Yes. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update the post content, title, or slug after it’s created. Consider keeping a version history by storing previous post states in your zap or external storage.
If a slug conflicts with an existing post, you can adjust the slug in the payload or trigger a slug-check using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before creation. Automate a fallback slug strategy to avoid duplication.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
