Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Blogs API?

The Blogs API is a RESTful interface that lets you manage blog content programmatically. When connected through the Zapier App Connector, you can automate the creation, updating, and publication of posts without writing code. This makes it easy to pull in content from external sources and push it out to your blog and related platforms. Use endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update them, and GET /blogs/categories to pull in category data for routing and organization.

Yes. You can schedule posts by leveraging Zapier’s scheduling capabilities and the Blogs API’s publish actions. Create a workflow that delays or times the POST /blogs/posts operation to publish at a specific date and time. You can also set up triggers to publish automatically when a condition is met. Two paragraphs provide guidance on setup and best practices.

While you can implement many automations with no traditional coding, you will typically need API credentials and some familiarity with API-based workflows. No heavy development is required, but you should have access to your Blogs API keys and understand how to map data fields in Zapier to the API endpoints.

Supported authentication methods include API key (Bearer token) and OAuth 2.0, depending on how your Blogs API is configured. In most Zapier App Connector setups, you’ll supply an access token or API key and refresh tokens as needed for ongoing authentication.

Content creation uses endpoints like POST /blogs/posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates. You may also pull supporting data such as categories (GET /blogs/categories) and authors (GET /blogs/authors) to enrich posts. Slug checks (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists) help ensure unique URLs.

Zapier provides built-in retries and error handling. If an API call fails, the task can be retried automatically, and you can configure notifications for failures. Implement field validations and mapping to reduce errors before requests are sent.

Rate limits depend on your Blogs API plan. In your Zapier workflows, plan for delays, exponential backoff, and staggered runs to avoid hitting limits. If you approach limits, you can throttle requests or parallelize safely where allowed.
