Copy the API key and secret from Blogs API and add them to Zapier.
Map each endpoint to a trigger or action in Zapier’s editor.
Run tests, monitor logs, and deploy to production.
To authenticate, generate an API key from Blogs API and plug it into Zapier App Connector’s authentication step. Choose the appropriate OAuth or API key flow as supported by the Blogs API. Ensure the key has the required scope such as emails/builder.readonly for read operations. Test the connection after setup to confirm access and permissions. If you encounter issues, verify credentials, scopes, and app connection status in Zapier.
The email builder endpoints include GET emails/builder to fetch templates and POST emails/builder to create new templates. You can also POST /emails/builder/data to populate templates and use DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId to remove unused templates.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check if a slug is available before creating a post. If the slug exists, modify it or append a unique suffix to ensure a collision is avoided. This keeps URLs clean and SEO friendly.
Scheduling is handled via the emails/schedule endpoints and blog post events. You can schedule campaigns tied to new posts or updates, ensuring timely delivery across channels. Combine with category data to target specific groups.
Key fields to map include postId, locationId, templateId, slug, title, and scheduleId. Align these fields with Zapier input fields to maintain data integrity and accurate automation.
No code automation is the core benefit here. You can connect Blogs API to the Zapier App Connector using a visual editor, configure triggers and actions, and deploy workflows without writing code. This speeds up experiments and iterations.
