Use the standard OAuth 2.0 flow or API keys provided by the Blogs API. Ensure your token includes the required scope (emails/builder.readonly) for read access and add write scopes where needed for publishing and updates.
Zoho Bookings uses OAuth 2.0 tokens. Create a connected app in Zoho and exchange authorization codes for access tokens, refreshing as needed to maintain a live connection.
Examples include: GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. The integration leverages read and write endpoints to fetch content, create posts, and manage taxonomy as part of Zoho Bookings workflows.
Trigger: a new booking is created in Zoho Bookings. Action: generate a draft post in Blogs API and assign an author and category.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts with title, content, and metadata; optionally publish with PUT once approved.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, authorId, categoryId, slug
Trigger: a booking is updated or canceled in Zoho Bookings. Action: update the related blog post to reflect the change.
Actions: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update content/status; adjust slug or publish state as needed.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, slug, status
Trigger: taxonomy updated in Blogs API. Action: refresh lists in Zoho Bookings for accurate mapping.
Actions: GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to pull fresh taxonomy data and update Zoho Bookings lookups.
GET /blogs/categories
categoryId, name; authorId, name
Automate content workflows without writing code. Create, update, and publish posts directly from bookings data.
Keep content and taxonomy synchronized across platforms in real time with triggers and actions.
Reuse templates and workflows to scale publishing across campaigns and events.
Common concepts include endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, webhooks, posts, categories, and authors. Understanding these helps you design reliable automations between Blogs API and Zoho Bookings.
A lightweight callback mechanism that notifies an app when a specific event occurs, enabling real-time updates.
How an app proves identity to access APIs, typically via OAuth tokens or API keys.
A defined URL path in an API that performs a specific function (read, write, update, delete).
A blog entry composed of a title, content, metadata, and publication status.
Capture booking details and generate a draft blog post in Blogs API for editorial review before publishing.
Schedule and publish blog updates when bookings hit milestones or anniversaries.
Pull categories and authors from Blogs API into Zoho Bookings for consistent tagging.
Create and configure API credentials for both services (OAuth tokens or API keys) and note required scopes.
Define booking events as triggers and map to blog post actions (create, update, publish).
Align fields like title, content, author, category, and slug. Run tests to verify data flows.
You can automate content creation by linking Zoho Bookings events to Blogs API posts. This helps teams publish timely blog updates aligned with bookings. It also enables editorial workflows without switching apps.
No heavy coding is required. The platform uses pre-built triggers and actions you configure in a visual flow. Some light setup to map fields and endpoints is enough.
Commonly synced data includes post titles, content, authors, categories, slugs, and publication status. You can also pull booking details to enrich posts and automate metadata.
Yes. You can customize templates and formatting in the Blogs API and apply mapping rules in Zoho Bookings so posts reflect your brand.
Basic setup usually requires endpoints for creating and updating posts, and endpoints for retrieving categories and authors to map taxonomy.
Use sandbox/test modes or a staging environment. Validate data flow by triggering sample bookings and checking that posts update as expected.
API credentials are found in the developer console of each service. Rotate tokens regularly and store them securely. Re-authenticate if a token expires.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
