To access the Blogs API, provide your API credentials and grant the Zapier App Connector the requested scope emails/builder.readonly for reading templates and emails. Use secure storage and rotate credentials regularly.
In Zapier, set up the connection using available authentication methods (OAuth2 or API key) and authorize access to the Blogs API account so you can start automating.
1) GET emails/builder — Read email templates 2) GET emails/builder.write — List writable templates 3) POST emails/builder — Create a new email template 4) POST /emails/builder/data — Upload data for templates 5) DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId — Remove a template 6) emails/schedule.readonly — Read email schedule 7) GET emails/schedule — Retrieve schedule details 8) GET /blogs/posts — List blog posts 9) POST /blogs/posts — Create a new post 10) PUT /blogs/posts/:postId — Update a post 11) GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists — Check slug existence 12) GET /blogs/categories — List categories 13) GET /blogs/authors — List authors
Triggers when you need to pull existing email templates from the builder.
Actions include listing templates, creating new templates, and updating content.
GET emails/builder
id, templateName, subject, status, updatedAt
Triggers when posts are created or updated in Blogs API.
Actions to create, update, publish, and fetch post details.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, authorId, categoryIds, status
Triggers for slug existence and category listing.
Actions to verify slug, create or update categories.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug, exists
Automate complex workflows without writing code.
Keep blog and email data in sync across apps.
Faster onboarding with fewer errors through ready-made triggers.
This glossary defines common terms used in the integration between Blogs API and Zapier App Connector, including endpoints, triggers, actions, and field mappings.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform a task in an API (for example, GET emails/builder).
An event in an app that starts an automation in Zapier.
An operation executed by a Zapier workflow in response to a trigger.
A URL-friendly identifier for a resource such as a blog post.
Automatically publish blog posts when a related event occurs in another app, using mapping rules to populate title, content, and author fields.
Send a weekly digest by auto-publishing selected posts to an email list via the Emails Builder.
Sync author details between Blogs API and your content publishing tools.
Authorize Zapier to access your Blogs API account and select the Blogs API as the target app.
Choose read or write endpoints, map fields, and configure triggers like new post or updated template.
Run tests in Zapier, verify data sync, and then deploy your workflow.
Yes. You can access the Blogs API through a dedicated Zapier App Connector account. Configure your connection with the Blogs API credentials and select the required scope. Test in a development environment before going live. Paragraph two: If you run into permission issues, review the assigned scopes and ensure the Zapier app has been granted access to the specific blog resources you intend to use.
Read endpoints let you pull data such as templates, posts, and categories. Write endpoints enable creating and updating templates or posts. Always sandbox first and map fields precisely to avoid errors. Paragraph two: Use the ENDPOINTLIST as a quick reference for which endpoints support which operations and ensure your Zap has proper triggers and actions aligned to those endpoints.
Authentication is performed via OAuth2 or API keys depending on your setup. In Zapier, create a connection to the Blogs API, authorize access, and store credentials securely. Paragraph two: Rotate keys regularly and update stored credentials in Zapier to maintain uninterrupted automation.
Yes. Use the slug existence endpoint to verify if a post slug is already used before attempting to create a new post. This helps avoid duplicates. Paragraph two: If the slug exists, you can generate a new slug or update the existing post accordingly.
The no-code approach eliminates manual coding, allowing you to set up data flows with triggers, actions, and field mappings in minutes. Paragraph two: This reduces human error and accelerates time-to-value for content publishing and email automation.
Rate limits depend on the Blogs API provider and your Zapier plan. Plan for bursts during launch and implement retry logic in your Zapier workflows. Paragraph two: Consider batching updates and using readonly endpoints where possible to minimize quota usage.
A sandbox or development mode typically provides test data and isolated endpoints. Use it to validate triggers, actions, and mappings before deploying to production. Paragraph two: Document test cases and capture any errors to refine your configurations.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
