Authenticate calls from Site24x7 to Blogs API using API keys or OAuth 2.0 as supported by the endpoint set. Store credentials securely and rotate regularly.
Site24x7 uses a secure API key or OAuth token to authorize requests to Blogs API, ensuring data is pulled and actions are executed safely.
Core endpoints for Blogs API integration with Site24x7 include: GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/check-slug.readonly, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. Use the endpoints you need to map posts, authors, and categories to Site24x7 dashboards and alerts.
Trigger when a new blog post is published in Blogs API to push updates into Site24x7 dashboards.
Actions include fetching post data, updating Site24x7 monitors, and notifying teams via alerts or channels.
GET /blogs/posts
id, slug, title, summary, publish_date, author_id
Triggered by bulk post imports or scheduled campaigns from Blogs API to Site24x7.
Actions: pull multiple posts, map fields to Site24x7 datasets, and update dashboards in bulk.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, category_id, author_id, publish_date
Triggered when author or category data changes in Blogs API.
Actions: fetch authors/categories, update Site24x7 records and surface insights.
GET /blogs/authors
author_id, name, bio
Automate data pulls and alerts without writing custom code, using Site24x7’s connectors.
Centralize blog metrics and monitoring in a single dashboard for quick insights.
Automatically notify teams when new posts go live or engagement changes.
Key elements include endpoints, authentication, triggers, actions, and data mappings that connect Blogs API with Site24x7.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that enable apps to communicate and exchange data.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that issues access tokens to secure API calls.
Webhook: a URL endpoint that receives real-time event notifications from an API.
Slug: a URL-friendly string used to identify posts.
Set up a health check to confirm new posts publish successfully and appear in Site24x7 dashboards.
Create alerts when engagement metrics dip after a new post goes live.
Generate a weekly digest combining post activity with site monitoring data for your team.
Generate an API Key or OAuth client and grant Site24x7 the required access scopes.
Define which endpoints to call and map fields to Site24x7 data structures.
Run a test call to pull a sample post and verify the data displays correctly.
You’ll typically need read and write access to the Blogs API endpoints you plan to use (such as /blogs/posts and /blogs/authors). Ensure your OAuth scopes or API key permissions align with the actions Site24x7 will perform. Store credentials securely and rotate them on a schedule.
Enable endpoints that cover content creation, updates, and discovery (e.g., GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors). This gives Site24x7 visibility into posts, categories, and author data for monitoring and alerts.
No heavy coding is required thanks to Site24x7’s connectors and configurable mappings. A basic setup can be completed via UI to connect endpoints and map fields; advanced workflows may need light scripting or field transformations.
Tokens should be rotated according to the provider’s policy (e.g., short-lived access tokens with refresh tokens). Use automatic token refresh where available and securely rotate credentials when needed.
If you exceed rate limits, implement exponential backoff and caching where appropriate. Space requests and batch data when possible to maintain stable monitoring and avoid interruptions.
Yes. You can extend mappings to include custom fields from Blogs API (such as summary, publish_date, author_name) and surface them in Site24x7 dashboards, reports, and alerts.
API credentials are generated in the Blogs API provider’s console. After creation, copy the key or client credentials and configure them in Site24x7’s integration settings with the appropriate scopes.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
