Blogs API uses OAuth tokens with the scope emails/builder.readonly to secure read access to email templates and schedules. For write operations, use properly issued credentials and rotate them according to your security policy.
In Zapier, create a connection using OAuth or API key depending on the setup for the Blogs API. Store credentials securely and test the connection to ensure all scopes and permissions align with your workflows.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/check-slug.readonly, GET emails/schedule, GET /blogs/posts, and others as needed for your workflows.
When a new post is created in Blogs API, Zapier can trigger downstream actions across your apps.
Actions: create a draft, update post details, notify teams, or sync post data to marketing tools.
GET /blogs/posts (to poll for new posts)
Key fields: postId, title, slug, publishDate, status
Use a scheduled trigger to fetch the latest content at defined intervals.
GET emails/schedule
Key fields: scheduleId, nextRun, status
This connection handles outbound updates to Blogs API when a Zapier workflow runs.
Actions: create posts, update existing posts, change slug, publish status, and attach metadata.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: postId, title, content, status, slug

Schedule posts to publish at optimal times and push updates to newsletters and social channels via Zapier.
Keep author details and post categories synchronized with your CRM for better segmentation and personalization.
Set up OAuth with the required scope and test the connection to ensure valid tokens and permissions.
Choose the endpoints you need, configure triggers and actions, and map data fields between Blogs API and Zapier.
Create a Zap that uses a Blogs API trigger to perform actions in other apps, then test end-to-end.
Answer: No-code options exist for most common tasks; you can set up triggers and actions directly in Zapier without writing code. If you need advanced logic, you may extend with simple filters and paths. Second paragraph: Always start with a test connection and use sample data to validate mappings before going live.
Answer: For basic workflows, include endpoints like GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates. Second paragraph: Also consider GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories to enrich data and improve routing.
Answer: In Zapier, use the Test Connection feature and sample records to verify authentication and permissions. Run test Zaps with mock data, then monitor task history for any errors. Second paragraph: Check endpoint responses and adjust field mappings accordingly.
Answer: Yes. You can automate publication by triggering blog post creation or updates and using actions to set publish status at the correct time. Second paragraph: Use scheduling or time-based triggers to ensure content goes live across platforms as planned.
Answer: Use OAuth or API keys securely, rotate credentials regularly, and restrict scopes to the minimum needed. Second paragraph: Store secrets in a secure vault and monitor access logs for unusual activity.
Answer: If an endpoint changes, update your Zapier app’s API configuration and mappings, then re-test the Zap. Second paragraph: Maintain a changelog and set up alerts for ically breaking changes from the API provider.
Answer: Explore official Blogs API docs, Zapier app connectors, and the endpoint list provided in this guide. Second paragraph: You can also reach out to support or consult community resources for example workflows and best practices.
