Access to the Blogs API requires either an API key or OAuth token with the appropriate scope. For this integration, the defined scope is emails/builder.readonly, which governs read access to email builder data. If you need additional capabilities like writing posts or updating content, request expanded scopes from your admin.
Set up OAuth2 or API key credentials in Zapier to authorize requests to Blogs API. Store credentials securely in the Zapier connection and test the connection before building workflows.

Automate publishing workflows without writing a single line of code.
Synchronize blog data with emails, CRMs, and analytics from one unified interface.
Move quickly from idea to live content with tested, repeatable automations.
Key elements include endpoints, authentication, data mapping, and test workflows. Core processes are connect, authenticate, map fields, test integrations, and deploy live automations.
A reachable URL that performs a specific action on the Blogs API, such as creating a post or retrieving authors.
A secure authorization protocol that lets apps access user data without exposing credentials.
A callback URL that the Blogs API can call to notify your app about events like a new post.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used in the post URL.
Capture CRM triggers to generate blog drafts and publish automatically using the Blogs API.
Automatically distill longer posts into newsletter-friendly summaries and feed into email campaigns.
Collect feedback via forms and convert into actionable blog topics and drafts.
In Zapier App Connector, add Blogs API as the connected app and generate API keys or authorize via OAuth.
Grant the required scopes (including read/write for blog data as needed) and test the authentication flow.
Create a test workflow, map the data fields (title, content, category, etc.), run tests, and deploy when green.
No heavy coding is required. The integration is designed for no-code and low-code users, with pre-mapped fields and simple triggers. You can set up common automations using Zapier without touching the codebase. If you are comfortable with API calls, you can customize mappings to fit your workflow precisely. If you ever need more advanced control, you can extend the workflow with additional steps or branches in Zapier to handle edge cases and validation.
Publishing a post typically uses POST /blogs/posts to create the content, followed by PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update it as needed. You can link the post’s slug and category during creation with fields like title, content, and categoryId. You may also use GET /blogs/categories to ensure the right category exists before publishing.
