Authenticate through OAuth 2.0 and API keys via Zapier. The integration requires scopes such as emails/builder.readonly to read templates and schedules, and write permissions for creating or updating content.
In Zapier, set up a connection for the App Connector using client credentials. Test the connection against Blogs API to ensure mint and secure data flow before building automations.
GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; GET emails/schedule; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; POST /blogs/posts; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/posts; GET /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/categories/:categoryId
Trigger when a new or updated email template is created in Blogs API, then send a relevant SMS via Zapier.
Actions include reading templates (GET emails/builder), creating/updating templates (POST emails/builder), and deleting templates (DELETE).
Key methods: GET emails/builder (read), POST emails/builder (create), DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId (delete).
templateId, locationId, name, subject, body, updatedAt
Trigger: schedule times linked to Blog activity to push reminders or digests via SMS.
Actions include reading schedules (GET emails/schedule), attaching blog content to templates (POST /emails/builder/data), and triggering sends at specified times.
Methods: GET emails/schedule, GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder/data
scheduleId, time, templateId, recipientList
Trigger: publish or update a blog post to initiate cross-channel alerts.
Actions include creating/updating posts (POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId), checking slug availability (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists), and fetching categories/authors (GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors).
Methods: POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors
postId, slug, title, excerpt, content, categoryId, authorId
Automate SMS campaigns from blog events without writing a line of code, using visual workflows.
Create multi-step campaigns that react to new posts, comments, or schedules with consistent messaging.
Scale outreach with reusable templates, auto-updates, and scheduled sends across channels.
Key elements and processes include API endpoints, authentication, data mapping, error handling, and logging for reliable automations.
A defined URL and HTTP method used to perform an action on a resource within an API.
The process of proving identity to access API resources, typically via OAuth2 or API keys.
A callback URL that receives real-time data when events occur in the system.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a post or page in a website.
Create a workflow that pulls the latest post data from Blogs API and sends an SMS summary to subscribers as soon as a post goes live.
Group new posts by category and push a scheduled digest to SMS lists, powered by endpoint data and templates.
Notify readers when favorite authors publish new content or updates, using author data from Blogs API.
Connect Blogs API in Zapier by authorizing access and validating the connection.
Choose the endpoints you’ll use (emails and blogs) and map fields between the API and Zapier.
Run tests to ensure data flows correctly, fix any mapping issues, and enable the automation in production.
The Blogs API is the bridge that lets Zapier App Connector read, create, and manage blog content and related assets. It enables triggering SMS workflows based on blog activity. This is the core data source you’ll pull from or push to in your automations. By using endpoints like GET /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/authors, you can react to new content or author updates in real time. The combination of templates (emails/builder) and blog data unlocks powerful, event-driven messaging without code.
For SMS campaigns, the most relevant endpoints are templates (emails/builder), schedules (emails/schedule), and blog content endpoints (blogs/posts, blogs/categories, blogs/authors). Reading templates lets you reuse proven message formats; scheduling endpoints enable timely sends; blog endpoints provide the content you’ll feature in messages. Mapping fields between these resources is key to a smooth flow.
Start by creating a Zapier connection to Blogs API, then run a test to fetch available templates and schedules. Use sample post data to validate mappings (title, slug, content). Check that authentication scopes are granted (e.g., emails/builder.readonly) and review a test run to confirm messages are dispatched as expected.
No dedicated code is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual editor to connect endpoints, map fields, and configure triggers and actions. Some familiarity with data structures helps, but you can build robust automations with drag-and-drop logic and prebuilt templates.
Typical authentication uses OAuth 2.0 with API keys. The Blogs API requires access scopes such as emails/builder.readonly for reading templates and emails/schedule for scheduling, plus write permissions when creating or updating content. Ensure your Zapier connection is permitted to access these scopes.
Yes. You can schedule posts or messages by combining blog publish events with the emails/schedule endpoints. Create a workflow that triggers on a blog publish and uses scheduling to send messages at a chosen time, enabling consistent outbound communication.
Errors and logs are available in the Zapier task history and in the Blogs API response details. Use the connection test to capture error messages, review endpoint responses, and refine mappings. Enable verbose logging in development before going live.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
