Authenticate requests to the Blogs API using an API key or OAuth token. In Zapier, create a new connection for Blogs API and supply your credentials. Use the Authorization header (Bearer token) for secure requests and include your API key in the header or query as required by the endpoint.
Connect Zapier App Connector to the Blogs API by selecting your Blogs API credentials within Zapier. Once connected, Zapier will securely handle token refreshes and store credentials for subsequent zaps.

No-code required — drag-and-drop builders create triggers, actions, and flows in minutes.
Rapid setup lets you automate blog publishing, email campaigns, and analytics without coding.
Reusable templates and zaps save time across campaigns and teams.
Understand the core terms and processes used when integrating Blogs API with Zapier App Connector, including endpoints, authentication, and data mapping.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action in an API.
The mechanism that proves you have permission to access a resource (e.g., Bearer tokens).
The process of confirming identity to obtain an access token for API calls.
The portion of the URL that identifies the resource and action to perform.
When a new blog post is published, generate a short summary and draft an email for your campaign.
Push views, comments, and shares to your analytics dashboard for real-time insights.
Alert teammates when a post is ready for review, reducing bottlenecks and speeding approvals.
In Zapier, add a Blogs API action and authenticate using your API key or OAuth credentials.
Select an endpoint such as POST /blogs/posts and map fields like title, content, and author.
Configure a trigger and actions to automate your workflow across Blogs API and Email/CRM tools.
Authenticate by using an API key or OAuth token. In Zapier, create a new Blogs API connection and supply the credentials. Ensure you include the Authorization header for all requests. If your endpoint requires a specific header or parameter, follow the endpoint documentation. Test the connection to confirm access. You can rotate credentials periodically for security. If you encounter token expiry errors, use the refresh flow if available, or re-authenticate the connection to obtain a new token.
Start with core endpoints like GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, and POST /blogs/posts to understand data structure. Then explore GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to prevent conflicts. As you gain confidence, build a Zap that creates posts from templates and triggers emails via GET emails/builder and POST /emails/builder data.
Yes. In Zapier, you can test a Trigger and Action without writing code. Use the built-in test feature to fetch sample data from the Blogs API and validate field mappings. This helps you confirm that the flow works before deploying to production.
Map fields by selecting the source data from the Blogs API response (e.g., title, content, slug) and align them with the destination fields in Emails or CRM actions. Use Zapier’s field mapping UI to ensure proper data types and formatting. If a field is missing, you can add a formatter step to transform the data.
Typically required fields for creating a blog post include title, content, slug (or slug auto-generated), and authorId. Some endpoints may require categoryId or tags. Always consult the endpoint docs to confirm required and optional fields.
If you hit rate limits, implement retries with backoff in Zapier. Use idempotent actions where possible to avoid duplicates. Handle 4xx errors by adjusting requests or credentials, and log 5xx errors for monitoring. Consider batching or pacing requests for high-volume workflows.
API credentials are available in your Blogs API account under API Access or Developers section. Create a new API key or OAuth client, then copy the token to Zapier when setting up the Blogs API connection. Keep credentials secure and rotate them regularly.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
