Start by generating a secure API key for Blogs API and configuring the connection in Simpletix. Use least privilege scopes to protect data and enable logging for auditability.
In the Blogs API panel, authorize Simpletix as a trusted app and set up authentication method (API key or OAuth) that both systems support.
Core endpoints include GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; GET emails/schedule; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors
When a new blog post is published in Blogs API, create or update an email draft in Simpletix.
Generate content blocks, assign a segment, and schedule delivery in a campaign.
POST /blogs/posts
postId, title, slug, excerpt, publishedAt
Blog post updated in Blogs API triggers an update to the corresponding Simpletix email.
Update content blocks, re-schedule emails, and refresh segments.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, lastModified, title, content
If the Blogs API call fails, automatically retry and alert your team.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug, exists
No-code automation to sync blog data with email campaigns
Fast setup with prebuilt endpoints and templates
Unified analytics across content and campaigns
Key concepts and processes you will use when integrating Blogs API with Simpletix include endpoints, triggers, authentication, data mapping, error handling, and testing.
A defined set of rules that lets software applications communicate and exchange data.
A specific URL in an API that performs a defined action when called.
The process of verifying identity to gain access to a system or service.
A callback URL configured to receive real-time event notifications from an app.
Automatically generate a weekly digest from new posts and deliver via email campaigns in Simpletix.
Publish product related posts to email campaigns when relevant.
Create an onboarding sequence in Simpletix when new readers subscribe via blog.
Generate and securely store API keys from Blogs API and authorize Simpletix.
Choose endpoints and map data fields to Simpletix templates.
Run tests, verify results, and flip to production.
No code is required to connect Simpletix with Blogs API. You can use the visual builders and prebuilt templates to map blog data to email campaigns. If you prefer a code-free approach, rely on the no-code automation tools and common endpoints to set up a workflow quickly. If you do use Zapier or another integration layer, you can create triggers and actions without writing custom code.
For a basic setup, essential endpoints typically include retrieving templates from emails/builder, creating blog posts via POST /blogs/posts, and checking slug existence with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. You may also schedule emails with GET emails/schedule and manage categories and authors via the related endpoints. Map the blog data to email templates and confirm data fields line up with your campaign structure.
To test the integration, run a dry run using sandbox API keys, verify that a new blog post triggers the corresponding email draft, and check the recipient list and scheduling. Review logs for any authentication or rate-limit errors, adjust retries, and confirm that data mapping fields render correctly in the email content.
Yes. Blog data such as title, excerpt, and slug can be incorporated into email templates to personalize campaigns. Use field mapping to place blog elements into subject lines, preheaders, and body content, and test how dynamic blog data renders in different template blocks.
Errors are surfaced in the integration logs and can trigger retries. Implement exponential backoff for failed requests, notify your team, and ensure a fallback path so campaigns can proceed with cached or default content while issues are resolved.
Yes. Authentication is required for secure data exchange. Typically you will configure an API key or OAuth credentials on both sides and ensure scopes are restricted to necessary actions such as reading templates or posting blog data.
API rate limits depend on your plan. Check the Blogs API and Simpletix documentation for current limits, monitor usage in the dashboard, and implement request pacing and retries to stay within the permitted thresholds.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
