Not necessarily. The integration is designed for a no-code approach using triggers, actions, and endpoints. You can set up automated workflows without writing code by selecting the right endpoints and mapping fields. If you do want advanced customization, you can extend your workflows with simple scripting in your automation platform. The goal is to empower non-developers to connect Modern Events Calendar with Blogs API efficiently. Two paragraphs: This method emphasizes accessibility and rapid setup so teams can start automating content quickly. If you encounter edge cases, consult the API documentation for endpoint specifics.
Essential endpoints typically include GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. These enable creating and updating blog posts, checking slug availability, and retrieving category/author data to properly tag content. Two paragraphs: Start with creating posts from events, then consider updating or scheduling content as events evolve. Always map required fields like title, content, and slug to the endpoint payload.
Authentication uses secure tokens issued by the Blogs API and Modern Events Calendar, with scope restrictions aligned to your integration needs (e.g., emails/builder.readonly). Store tokens securely and refresh before they expire. Two paragraphs: Use best practices for credential storage and rotate keys periodically. If your automation platform supports OAuth, configure client credentials and redirect URIs as required to maintain uninterrupted access.
Yes. Scheduling posts can be handled via the blog endpoints in combination with the emails scheduling endpoints. You can draft posts and schedule their publication or delivery. Two paragraphs: Use POST /blogs/posts to create a post and leverage emails/schedule to manage send timing or publication windows. Ensure your time zone and publish dates are correctly mapped in the workflow.
Absolutely. To update existing posts, use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId with the updated fields. This allows edits to title, content, or metadata without creating duplicates. Two paragraphs: Keep a changelog within your workflow and verify post IDs before updating. This approach minimizes content drift and maintains consistency across channels.
Categories and authors can be pulled from the Blogs API with GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors. Map category IDs and author IDs to your posts to maintain proper attribution. Two paragraphs: Ensure the mappings align with your CMS taxonomy and author roster. Regularly refresh the taxonomy data to prevent mismatches in new posts.
Additional learning resources include the Blogs API and Modern Events Calendar documentation, plus community forums and tutorials for no-code automation. Two paragraphs: Explore example workflows and templates to accelerate setup. If you need tailored guidance, consider reaching out to support or consult additional case studies.
