No coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual workflow designer to map triggers, actions, and fields between Apps. You can configure authentication, endpoint calls, and data mappings without writing custom code. The Blogs API endpoints are exposed as actions you can drag into your workflow.\nIf you need advanced logic, you can still use simple filters and conditional steps to tailor publishing behavior.
Post creation typically uses POST /blogs/posts to publish new content. For updates, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId applies changes to an existing post. You can also check slug availability with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing to ensure clean URLs.\nMap the title, content, slug, category_id, and author_id to ensure posts are created with correct metadata.
Yes. You can schedule posts by creating a workflow that triggers at a specified time or on a cadence. Combine time-based Triggers with POST /blogs/posts to publish content automatically, or use drafts and publish at a future date.\nZapier’s scheduling features enable reliable, hands-off publishing aligned with your editorial calendar.
Yes. The Blogs API endpoints include access to authors and categories (GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories). You can pull this metadata into Zapier to populate author fields and category drop-downs, helping ensure posts are properly attributed and organized.\nThis makes content workflows more accurate and easier to maintain.
