Access to Blogs API requires a secure credential such as an API key or OAuth token. Use the appropriate scope and rotate credentials regularly.
In Zapier, create a new connection to Blogs API by providing the API credentials and selecting the proper scope. The connector stores tokens securely and prompts you to re authenticate when needed.
Key operations include reading and managing email templates (GET emails/builder POST emails/builder and DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId), managing blog posts (POST /blogs/posts PUT /blogs/posts/:postId GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists), and reviewing categories and authors (GET /blogs/categories GET /blogs/authors). You may also check slug existence and schedule endpoints (GET emails/schedule GET blogs/categories).
