Use OAuth 2.0 or API tokens from Blogs API to authorize requests from the Zapier App Connector. Set the provided scopes (emails/builder.readonly) when needed and store credentials securely in Zapier.
In Zapier, configure a connection for the Blogs API app using OAuth2 or token-based auth, then test the connection to confirm credentials.
GET emails/builder; GET emails/builder.write; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; emails/schedule.readonly; GET emails/schedule; blogs/post.write; POST /blogs/posts; blogs/post-update.write; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; blogs/check-slug.readonly; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; blogs/category.readonly; GET /blogs/categories; blogs/author.readonly; GET /blogs/authors
Create a Zap that triggers when a new blog post is created in Blogs API (for example via POST /blogs/posts) and then drives downstream actions.
Actions: publish the new post to email campaigns using emails/builder, update related previews, or notify subscribers.
POST /blogs/posts
Required fields: title, content, authorId, categoryId, slug
Schedule a recurring pull from Blogs API (e.g., daily summary) and drive downstream actions.
Actions: generate a digest and post to email campaigns or Slack channels.
GET blogs/schedule
Fields: scheduleTime, summary, status
Fetch reference data for taxonomy and authors using GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to populate dropdowns in Zapier.
Actions: map categoryId and authorId to posts, store for filtering in workflows.
GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors
Fields: categoryId, authorId
Automate publishing workflows without writing code.
Centralize content updates across tools with a single automation layer.
Speed up publishing cycles and reduce manual data entry.
Key elements: endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, fields, and data mapping. Processes: configure, test, deploy, and monitor.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an operation in an API (for example, GET /blogs/posts).
An event in your app that starts a Zap or workflow.
An operation performed by Zapier after a trigger, such as creating a blog post.
A URL-friendly string that identifies a resource, like a blog post slug.
Trigger on new posts and deliver summaries to your email campaigns via the emails/builder endpoints.
Publish posts to social platforms by calling blog endpoints and update posts accordingly.
Coordinate publishing schedules with a calendar view using the schedule endpoints and the blogs API.
Set up OAuth or token-based auth and test the connection to Blogs API from Zapier.
Add triggers and actions using endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors.
Run tests, fix field mappings, and enable the Zap in production.
No code is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual interface to connect endpoints and build workflows between Blogs API and your apps. In some cases, advanced users can add custom transformations or extra steps if needed.
Supported methods include OAuth 2.0 and API tokens. Choose the option that fits your security needs. OAuth flows can provide refresh tokens and scoped access.
Key blogging endpoints include creating, updating, slug checking, and retrieving posts, plus category and author listings. You can also fetch schedules and email-related endpoints for notifications.
Yes. Zapier lets you test connections with sandbox data before going live. Use test mode to validate authentication, endpoints, and data mappings.
APIs often rate-limit requests. In Zapier, stagger calls, respect retry-after headers, and cache results where possible. If limits are hit, implement exponential backoff in workflows.
Yes. You can map categoryId and authorId to your article data to enable filtering in routes and automations. Use Zapier’s field mapping to enforce required data shapes.
Open the mapping screen in your Zapier app and drag fields from Blogs API to your target fields. Test with sample data and adjust types to ensure clean data flows.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
