No heavy coding is required to get started. Many teams use no-code automation tools to connect Blogs API with Sympla by mapping triggers (for example, new Sympla event or new post draft) to actions (creating or updating a blog post). For custom needs, lightweight scripting can handle data transforms and error handling. Start with a simple workflow and iterate.
To publish, you typically need POST /blogs/posts to create a post. You may also use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify a slug before creation. Pull author and category data from GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories to populate metadata.
Call GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists with the desired slug. If the response indicates availability, you can proceed to create the post. If not, modify the slug and retry. This prevents duplicate URLs and SEO issues.
Yes. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update content, and you can modify title, content, slug, and metadata. For published posts, consider updating the publishDate or status as needed to reflect changes.
Most integrations use Bearer token authentication or OAuth with client credentials. Store tokens securely, refresh as needed, and attach the token to API calls in the Authorization header. Align with the scopes requested during setup.
Commonly requested scopes include blogs/post.write for creating posts, blogs/check-slug.readonly for slug checks, and blogs/author.readonly and blogs/category.readonly to fetch authors and categories. Use emails/builder.* scopes for any email-related features as needed.
Yes. No-code platforms offer visual builders to connect apps like Blogs API and Sympla. They handle authentication, triggers, and actions without writing code, making it easy to start quickly while still allowing advanced configurations if needed.
