Blogs API supports API Key and OAuth 2.0 authentication. Choose the method that matches your security needs, and grant the minimum scopes required for publishing and retrieval. Store tokens securely within Zapier App Connector.
Core endpoints include creating and updating posts (POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId), slug checks (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists), and retrieving authors and categories (GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories). The full catalog spans dozens of endpoints available in the reference.
To validate a slug, trigger a slug existence check via GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing. If the slug exists, adjust the title or slug to ensure uniqueness. This helps prevent broken links and improves SEO readiness.
Yes. You can create workflows that pull authors and categories from your CMS and push them into Blogs API using GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories. Keep taxonomy aligned across platforms automatically.
No coding required; use Zapier’s visual builder to string triggers and actions. Minimal scripting is optional for advanced transformations.
Test via Zapier’s built-in test steps, run sample data, and review logs. Validate endpoints, triggers, and field mappings before going live.
Endpoint documentation is provided in the reference catalog and in this guide. You can also export a CSV of endpoints for quick reference.
