Access the Blogs API using OAuth with the required scope (emails/builder.readonly) and API credentials. Ensure your connection has the appropriate permissions to read and manage blog content.
Connect the Zapier App Connector to your Blogs API account by providing the app credentials and selecting the Blogs API scopes needed for triggers and actions.
Endpoints include GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, POST /blogs/posts, POST /emails/builder/data, and GET /emails/schedule to support content creation, publishing, slug validation, and scheduling.
Trigger: a new blog post is created or updated in Blogs API, prompting an immediate publish or update via Zapier.
Actions: create or update a post, validate slug, and publish instantly.
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: title, content, slug, categoryId, authorId
Trigger: schedule events or draft saves in the content workflow.
Actions: schedule posts, update drafts, and publish at a specified time.
GET /emails/schedule
Key fields: scheduleTime, recurrence, postId
Trigger: slug availability check and category fetch before publishing.
Actions: check slug, fetch categories, assign category to post.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Key fields: slug, categoryId
Automate publishing workflows without writing code, using visual triggers and actions.
Keep content synchronized across your blog, CMS, and distribution channels automatically.
Speed up time-to-publish and reduce manual errors through repeatable, automated processes.
This glossary explains core elements you’ll encounter: endpoints (URL paths that perform actions), triggers (events that start a workflow), actions (the operations performed), and key fields used to map data between Blogs API and the Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL path in the API that performs a defined action, such as creating a post or checking a slug.
An event that starts a workflow in Zapier or the integration, such as a new post creation or schedule time.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a blog post in a stable, shareable URL.
A taxonomy used to organize posts; categories can be managed and assigned via API calls.
Aggregate drafts from multiple sources and publish a weekly digest via Zapier.
Sync category changes to Blogs API posts automatically to keep content aligned.
Generate and validate slugs with contextual SEO rules during post creation.
Create a Zapier connection and authorize access to Blogs API with the required scope.
Select endpoints like /blogs/posts and /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and map to triggers and actions.
Run tests, verify data flow, and publish your Zap.
Yes. The integration uses OAuth-based authentication and scoped access to protect your data. Always follow least-privilege principles and rotate credentials regularly. For sensitive actions, enable additional verification and monitor access logs. In production, use secure, encrypted connections and never expose API keys in client-side code.
The integration supports core endpoints for creating, updating, slug checks, and category management, including GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, and GET /blogs/authors. You can selectively map triggers and actions to the endpoints you need for your workflow.
Yes. You can schedule posts by using the scheduling endpoints (e.g., GET /emails/schedule) and map them to time-based actions in Zapier. This allows posts to publish at a future time or on a recurring cadence.
Absolutely. This No-Code integration is designed for users who prefer visual automation and point-and-click configuration. You can build complex workflows without writing code, while retaining full control over data mappings and endpoints.
Slug conflicts can be avoided by validating slug availability before publish (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists). If a conflict is detected, you can generate an alternative slug or adjust the title until a unique slug is obtained.
Yes. Categories can be managed via API calls (GET /blogs/categories) and assigned to posts during create or update actions. Use the categoryId field to link posts to the correct category automatically.
A recommended workflow is to trigger on draft creation, validate slug and category, then publish via a POST /blogs/posts action. Include a scheduled check if timing is important, and monitor the workflow to ensure successful publishing and error handling.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
