Authenticate with a secure API key and the necessary scopes (emails/builder.readonly, emails/schedule.readonly, blogs/*). Treat credentials like gold and rotate regularly.
Authorize Spiro to access your Blogs API credentials via OAuth or API key pairing. Ensure redirect URIs, scopes, and permissions align with your use case.

Automate end-to-end blog workflows without writing code, from drafting to distribution.
Rapidly repurpose content into emails and campaigns with consistent branding.
Centralized scheduling and analytics for blog posts and email campaigns.
This glossary explains core terms and processes used when connecting Blogs API with Spiro, plus how to navigate the integration lifecycle.
API stands for Application Programming Interface, a set of rules that lets software applications talk to each other.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that lets Spiro access Blogs API resources securely without sharing credentials.
An endpoint is a specific URL in an API that performs an action or returns data.
A slug is a URL-friendly string used to identify a post in links and SEO.
Automatically pull key blog highlights into a digest email sequence to keep subscribers engaged without manual copying.
When Spiro captures a new lead, generate a blog post draft and route it to your editor queue for quick review.
Feed engagement metrics back into Spiro to refine topics and improve future posts.
Create API credentials in Blogs API and authorize Spiro to access them with the needed scopes.
Define which Spiro events map to blog fields (title, content, author, slug) and set up scheduling rules.
Run test posts and emails, verify endpoints respond correctly, and monitor activity via the dashboards.
Blogs API supports token-based authentication using API keys with the required scopes. Store keys securely and rotate them regularly to minimize risk. When you connect to Spiro, ensure the redirect and scope configuration matches the actions you want to automate. If you experience a permissions error, check that your key includes blogs/* and emails/* scopes. For ongoing security, implement least-privilege access and monitor usage patterns. Rotate credentials on a regular schedule and revoke access if a key is suspected to be compromised.
For basic blog posting from Spiro, you typically need endpoints related to creating and updating posts (POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId) and supporting slug checks (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists). You may also use endpoints to retrieve authors or categories to populate post metadata (GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories).
Yes. You can set up a no-code workflow where a new post in Spiro triggers a draft in Blogs API via POST /blogs/posts, followed by email distribution using POST /emails/builder. This can all be configured inside your automation platform without custom code, using the provided triggers and actions.
No extensive coding is required. The integration relies on configurable triggers, field mappings, and pre-built endpoints. If you need more advanced logic, you can layer in minimal scripting or use webhooks for custom conditioning.
Common issues include invalid credentials, missing scopes, or mis-mapped fields. Verify API keys and scopes, re-authorize if needed, and review endpoint responses for errors. Use test data to isolate where the failure occurs and confirm that the endpoint paths and methods match your configuration.
Typical mappings include title, content, excerpt, authorId, slug, and publishDate for posts. For emails, map post URL, subject line, and a snippet. Keep templates consistent with your branding to ensure a smooth handoff between systems.
Scheduled emails appear in the Blogs API email schedule view. You can monitor status, retries, and delivery outcomes from the emails section or the integration dashboard. If an item fails, review the error code, adjust the payload, then re-run the scheduled task.
