This glossary defines terms used in this guide to help you configure and troubleshoot your Blogs API and Zapier App Connector workflow
An API endpoint is a specific URL and HTTP method used to perform a function in the Blogs API
A slug is a URL friendly string derived from a post title that forms the blog post URL
Authentication proves identity when calling the API, usually via API keys or OAuth tokens
A webhook is a real time callback that notifies another system when events happen in the Blogs API
Publish a new post in Blogs API and automatically share summaries to social channels, email, and CMS via Zapier App Connector
Pull content calendar items into Blogs API and publish on schedule with correct metadata
Keep authors and categories in sync between Blogs API and your apps to ensure correct attribution
Connect your Blogs API account to Zapier App Connector using OAuth or API key, then test the connection
Choose endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId and map fields like title content slug and categories
Run tests verify data flows correctly adjust mappings and deploy your workflow
The Blogs API provides endpoints to manage posts categories and authors. In Zapier App Connector you authenticate and set triggers and actions to automate publishing. You can map fields like title content slug category and author, and trigger workflows when new posts are created or updated.
No code is required to set up this integration. The Zapier App Connector UI lets you configure triggers actions and mappings visually. Advanced users can add filters paths and conditional steps if needed.
Key endpoints for posts include POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug uniqueness. You can also fetch categories via GET /blogs/categories and authors via GET /blogs/authors for richer post data.
Yes you can schedule posts using Zapier by creating a scheduled trigger that calls POST /blogs/posts at your desired time. Combine with delays and multi-step paths for complex publication calendars.
Slug checks ensure unique URLs for each post. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing to confirm the slug is available, and adjust if necessary.
API endpoints have rate limits. If you approach the limit, stagger requests, batch operations where possible, and consider higher tier plans or optimized polling intervals.
Yes. You can fetch and map authors with GET /blogs/authors and assign them to posts in Zapier App Connector, enabling attribution and filtering by author in downstream apps.
