To connect TrekkSoft to the Blogs API, start by obtaining your Blogs API credentials with the scope emails/builder.readonly. Store credentials securely and configure your connection in the Zapier App Connector. Use OAuth or API keys as your setup requires.
TrekkSoft authenticates to the Blogs API by requesting an access token with your TrekkSoft client credentials. Ensure the TrekkSoft app is granted the Blogs API scope so it can create and update blog posts, fetch categories, and retrieve author data.

Create a test TrekkSoft event and verify the blog post creation and updates work as expected.
For Blogs API, you typically authenticate with an API key or OAuth token with the approved scope. TrekkSoft connections should store credentials securely and rotate credentials regularly. In the Zapier App Connector, set up secure credential storage and handle token refresh automatically. Ensure you test in a sandbox environment first.
Common publishing workflows require endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts to create posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slugs, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update posts. For retrieval, GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors help map metadata.
Slug existence checks prevent duplicates. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before creating a post. If a slug exists, use logic to modify or append a unique slug. The endpoint helps ensure clean URLs.
Yes. You can pull blog categories with GET /blogs/categories and authors with GET /blogs/authors and map them to TrekkSoft data. You can also create new categories or authors if needed depending on permissions.
Rate limits vary by endpoint and plan. Monitor headers for remaining quota and implement exponential backoff in your workflow to handle 429 responses.
The Zapier App Connector is optional but recommended for managing credentials, triggers, and actions. It provides a cohesive UI and secure storage across apps.
Implement retries with backoff, log errors, and alert when failures occur. Use idempotent operations where possible to avoid duplicate posts.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
