To start, generate an API key in the Blogs API developer portal and grant Paperless Pipeline the required scope (emails and blogs).
In Paperless Pipeline, connect the Blogs API by supplying the API key and selecting the permissions you need for reading emails and creating blog posts.
GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; GET emails/schedule; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts

Actions: create a new blog post in Blogs API, attach content, set slug, and save as a draft in Paperless Pipeline.
Method path: GET emails/builder to pull content; POST /blogs/posts to create or save drafts.

The Blogs API acts as the bridge between your email-driven content and your blog or CMS in Paperless Pipeline. It exposes endpoints to fetch and create content, which Paperless Pipeline uses to draft, publish, or update posts. This keeps your editorial workflow seamless without manual copy-pasting. The setup is designed for no-code / low-code teams to empower marketing automation.
No heavy coding is required. You typically generate an API key from Blogs API and paste it into Paperless Pipeline, then configure triggers and field mappings in the UI. If your workflow needs custom logic, you can augment with simple automations, but most setups are plug-and-play.
Essential endpoints include retrieving email drafts (GET emails/builder), creating blog posts (POST /blogs/posts), checking slug existence (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists), and retrieving authors and categories (GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories).
Authentication is handled with API keys. You generate a key in Blogs API, grant the required scope, and enter it into Paperless Pipeline. This keeps access secure and auditable.
Yes. You can update or republish posts using the Blogs API endpoints (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId) and adjust status or content as needed after publishing.
Test using a sandbox or test campaigns. Validate data mapping, triggers, and endpoints, then monitor logs for errors and adjust mappings as needed.
Paperless Pipeline provides logs and error notifications for each connection. You can review API call history, failed requests, and retry actions from the integration settings.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
