Authenticate to the Blogs API using your API key or OAuth credentials. Store credentials securely and test the connection from Zapier App Connector before building workflows.
Zapier App Connector authenticates connections securely via OAuth 2.0 or API keys. Grant the necessary permissions and rotate credentials regularly.
The integration supports core blog operations and email-driven actions. Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST /emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, and others. Use these to build robust automation flows between Blogs API and the Zapier App Connector.
