You typically authenticate using OAuth 2.0 with an access token or an API key issued by the connector. The scope should include read access to emails and blogs so you can trigger actions and fetch content as needed. Keep tokens secure and rotate them periodically.
Commonly used endpoints include GET blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates, GET /blogs/categories for taxonomy, and GET /blogs/authors for author data. For automation, you may also use GET emails/builder and POST /emails/builder/data to manage email campaigns related to new or updated posts.
Yes. You can set a schedule in Zapier App Connector to pull the latest posts at regular intervals and push summaries or full content to your newsletters or social channels. Use the blogs/posts endpoints to fetch data and emails/builder endpoints to distribute it.
Handle errors by logging the response codes, retrying transient failures, and validating required fields before sending requests. Implement backoff logic and monitor rate limits to avoid throttling.
Yes. Access requires appropriate scopes such as emails/builder.readonly for read operations and write scopes for updates. Ensure the app is granted the minimum necessary permissions for security and compliance.
Test endpoints in a staging or development environment using built-in test tools in the Zapier App Connector or a REST client. Validate responses, status codes, and data mappings before moving to production.
