A concise glossary of terms and processes used in connecting Zoho Survey with Blogs API
An API is a set of rules that lets two apps talk to each other. In this guide it enables Zoho Survey to interact with the Blogs API
An API endpoint is a specific URL where a service can be accessed to perform an action
OAuth is a standard for token based authentication that lets apps access user data securely
A slug is a URL friendly string used to create readable links
Turn new survey responses into draft blog posts with auto filled title and opening paragraph
Trigger email campaigns when survey results cross thresholds
Keep blog content synchronized with live survey data
Create a new OAuth app in the Blogs API console and connect it to Zoho Survey with required scopes
Map survey fields to blog post fields and choose endpoints for drafts publishing and updates
Test in staging, validate data flow, then move to production with monitoring
You can connect without code using the Zoho Survey built in automation features. The Blogs API connector provides prebuilt actions that map survey data to blog fields. If you do want to customize, a lightweight scripting option is available in the integration settings. Always test in a staging environment first and enable error reporting.
Authorization is handled via OAuth 2.0. You will authorize the Zoho Survey account to access the Blogs API and grant the required scopes. The access token is securely stored and refreshed automatically. If you see permission errors, reauthorize or check the scopes.
Common endpoints used include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slug, and POST emails/builder to send emails. The exact mapping depends on your workflow.
Map each survey field to a blog field in the connector settings. For example map survey question X to blog title, survey answer Y to content, and email recipient to the email builder.
Yes. Enable webhooks or update triggers to push updates when survey data changes. The integration supports update calls to existing posts to keep content in sync.
There are rate limits for the Blogs API and Zoho Survey API. The connector handles backoff and retries automatically. If you hit limits, adjust polling frequency or batch requests.
All errors and logs are visible in the integration dashboard. You can view error codes, failed webhooks, and retry attempts, then fix mappings or credentials and re-run the flow.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
