Integration
Connect Blogger to Blog Automation
Articles appear as posts on your Blogger blog (blogspot.com or your own domain) - with title, text, labels, search description and the cover image at the top of the post.
What you need for Blogger
- A Google account that owns the blog or is an admin or author of it.
- At least one blog on blogger.com.
Step by step: connect Blogger
- In Blog Automation: Websites & blogs → Connect website → Blogger.
- Click Connect with Google, pick your Google account and allow Blog Automation to manage your Blogger posts.
- Back in Blog Automation choose the blog, status, default category and language, then click Save blog.
- Only if the page asks for a Client ID and Client secret instead: follow the "how to get the 2 values" guide there (your own client in the Google Cloud Console with the Blogger API v3).
Where do I find what in Blogger?
| Field in Blog Automation | Where to find it in Blogger |
|---|---|
| Client ID | Own Google client only: Google Cloud Console → Google Auth Platform → Clients. Ends in .apps.googleusercontent.com. |
| Client secret | Own Google client only: shown once when you create the client. |
What is transferred to Blogger?
Title → title, article text → content, tags and category → labels (20 at most), cover image → picture at the very top of the post, meta description → search description (up to 150 characters). Blogger derives the address and page title from the title itself.
Tips for Blogger
- With your own Google client, make sure to click Publish app under "Audience" - otherwise the connection expires after 7 days.
Good to know about Blogger
- Blogger has no featured-image field, so the cover image sits at the start of the text.
- The search description only shows if it is switched on in Blogger under Settings → Meta tags.

Frequently asked questions about Blogger
"The Google approval has expired or was revoked"
Reconnect the site with Google. If you use your own client, check that the app is published.
"There is no Blogger blog for this Google account"
Create a blog on blogger.com first, or sign in with the account that owns the blog.
Google shows "App not verified".
This only appears with your own Google client. It is your own app: click Advanced and Continue.
