This glossary defines terms and processes used throughout this guide to help you integrate Blogs API with Pushpress.
Application Programming Interface a set of rules that allows software to talk to another system.
A URL friendly identifier for a post used in links and routing.
Process used to verify identity and grant access typically via API keys or OAuth.
A specific URL path in the API that performs an action or returns data.
Automatically generate a weekly digest email when new posts are published and send to subscribers.
Pull author data and feature in emails when posts are released.
Notify readers about updates to popular posts.
Obtain your Blogs API keys from the developer portal and install them in Pushpress.
Set up Authorization headers and run test requests to confirm connectivity.
Create triggers and actions for blog events and email campaigns.
No advanced coding is required. The integration uses standard REST endpoints and authentication. Pushpress guides you through setting up a connection and creating simple triggers. If you need to customize beyond the basics, you can layer in additional steps or use webhooks for real time updates.
For a basic workflow you need a few endpoints: create posts, check slug, and fetch categories/authors to personalize emails. You can expand later with endpoints for updating posts and scheduling emails.
Use API keys or OAuth depending on what the Blogs API supports. Always store keys securely. Rotate credentials regularly and limit scope to necessary permissions.
Yes. You can customize email templates within Pushpress using built in template editors and data from the Blogs API. Templates can be populated with post title, author name, and excerpt via variables in the content block.
Rate limits depend on your plan and the API. If you hit limits, stagger requests or use batching. Implement retries with exponential backoff and monitor quota via the developer console.
Yes. Scheduling is supported through the emails/builder endpoints and the schedule endpoints. You can queue campaigns for specific times and time zones to optimize delivery.
Test by using sandbox credentials and a small test blog post to verify triggers and email rendering. Review logs in both Blogs API and Pushpress to troubleshoot and validate data mappings.
