Begin by obtaining your API key and OAuth credentials from the Blogs API console. In Zapier, add a new connection, enter the credentials, and test the connection to ensure you can access endpoints such as emails/builder and blogs/posts.
Grant Zapier the required permissions scoped to emails/builder.readonly and blogs/post.*. This ensures Zapier can fetch templates, read posts, and publish updates securely.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /emails/schedule, GET emails/builder.readonly, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, and more. These endpoints cover email templates, blog posts, categories, authors, scheduling, and slug checks used in typical automation flows.
Trigger: New or updated blog post triggers a sync to emails/builder to refresh templates and notify readers.
Actions: GET emails/builder to fetch templates, POST /emails/builder/data to fill template data, and PUT /emails/builder to update templates.
Method paths: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data
Key fields: templateId, locationId, and data payload fields used in the builder data call
Trigger: Publishing a blog post via blogs/posts triggers an email campaign via blogs/post-update or emails/builder.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts to create a post, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/categories to fetch categories, GET /blogs/authors for author data, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs.
Paths: POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Fields: postId, slug, categoryId, authorId, and content payload
Trigger: Schedule reads from emails/schedule to monitor campaigns and post status.
Actions: GET emails/schedule for timings, GET emails/builder for template status, and GET /blogs/authors to enrich reports.
Methods: GET emails/schedule, GET emails/builder, GET /blogs/authors
Fields: scheduleId, status, nextRun, and post metrics
No-code automation lets non-developers create robust workflows between Blogs API and your email templates without writing a line of code.
Automatic data syncing between the Blogs API and email campaigns saves time and reduces manual entry.
Fast deployment for content-based campaigns means faster time-to-value and higher engagement.
Understand the core pieces: API endpoints, authentication, triggers, actions, and data fields. This glossary helps you map your workflows.
Application Programming Interface that lets two apps communicate by exchanging data and commands.
An HTTP method used to create a new resource on the server.
An HTTP method used to retrieve data from the server.
A specific URL on an API that performs an action or returns data.
Automatically generate concise blog summaries and push them to your Email Builder templates via POST /blogs/posts and POST /emails/builder/data to kick off a new campaign.
Set up a trigger on new posts to assemble a newsletter using existing templates and send it via the Blogs API endpoints.
Notify subscribers in real time when new posts publish by routing to emails/builder and blogs/post-update.
Obtain your API key and OAuth credentials from the Blogs API console, then set up a new connection in Zapier.
Authorize the app to access necessary scopes (emails/builder.readonly, blogs/posts.*) and run a test to confirm endpoints respond correctly.
Create a Zap that uses triggers like new blog posts and actions like update templates or publish posts via the endpoints listed above.
To connect, create a new Zap in Zapier, choose the Blogs API as the app, and select the appropriate trigger and action steps. Provide your API key and authorize the connection. Test each step to ensure data flows correctly between Blogs API and the Zapier App Connector.
Common endpoints include GET emails/builder to fetch templates, POST /emails/builder/data to populate content, POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs.
No heavy coding is required. Zapier and the Blogs API provide triggers and actions you can configure with a no-code interface.
All data is transmitted over HTTPS and OAuth tokens. Set least-privilege scopes and use Zapier’s secure storage for credentials.
Use Zapier’s test mode and API test calls to verify each step before enabling the workflow in production.
Yes. You can schedule posts and campaigns by combining the scheduling endpoints with your workflow in Zapier.
Check Zapier task history and the Blogs API logs for error messages, retries, and endpoint responses to troubleshoot.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
