Publish BlogPost via API

ajinvise — Mon, 06 Mar 2023 08:59:49 GMT

Have anyone published a blog post from the API? I can create it but it refuses to be published. So I have to go into the portal and publish it manually.

Here is my code:

const post = new BlogPost()
// ... filling with content etc
post.currentState = 'PUBLISHED'
post.publishImmediately = true
post.publishDate = new Date

const blogPost = await hubspot.cms.blogs.blogPosts.blogPostsApi.create(post)
await hubspot.cms.blogs.blogPosts.blogPostsApi.pushLive(blogPost.id)

Hello @ajinvise , Happy Mondat!

Are you using a V3 endpoint? There are a few requirements that this developers document with more details on how to publish a blog post here.

I hope this information helps.

Hi @PamCotton !
Thank you, I am using that exact page to guide me and still fail. So I am using the official client which is using v3. Do you know a developer we can ask to take a look?

Below is a somewhat more complete example of my code:

const post = new BlogPost() post.contentGroupId = config.BLOG_ID post.name = details.Release.Title post.slug = details.Release.Title post.metaDescription = details.Release.Title post.tagIds = tagIds post.postBody = details.Release.HtmlBody.replace( /(<[^>]*) style=("[^"]+"|'[^']+')([^>]*>)/gi, '$1$3' ); post.postSummary post.featuredImage = details.Release.Images[0].DownloadUrl post.blogAuthorId = config.BLOG_AUTHOR_ID post.currentState = 'PUBLISHED' post.publishImmediately = true post.publishDate = new Date post.widgets = { post_settings: { press_data: { ...trimmedDetails, } } } // Successful const blogPost = await hubspot.cms.blogs.blogPosts.blogPostsApi.create(post) // Successful but the post is not published // It is weird because it can be publish via portal no problem. await hubspot.cms.blogs.blogPosts.blogPostsApi.pushLive(blogPost.id)

Hi!

I had the exact same issue. For me it was the property state that did the trick. When I passed State: 'PUBLISHED' it worked. Did not use the pushLive function.
