Availability

The Developer Portal includes a built-in blog that Portal Admins can use to publish content directly on the Live Portal. Blog posts are publicly visible to all visitors and serve as a content channel alongside the API catalog.

Use Cases

The blog is suited for content that supplements the API catalog:
  • Portal announcements: new features, scheduled maintenance, policy changes
  • API release notes: version updates and deprecation notices for published APIs
  • Developer guides: tutorials, best practices, and integration walkthroughs
  • Community content: case studies, partner spotlights, or ecosystem news

How the Blog Fits into the Portal

The blog is a top-level content area within the Live Portal. When enabled, the portal automatically registers a /blog route and adds a Blog link to the Primary navigation menu during initial setup. Portal Admins can later modify or remove this link from the Menus section. Blog listing page at /blog in the Live Portal, showing published posts as cards with title, date, lede, and a Keep reading button Blog posts are organized using Categories and Tags:
  • Categories group posts by topic and are surfaced in the Live Portal at /blog/category/[category-name] for filtering.
  • Tags enable cross-referencing. A post that shares a tag with a product appears in that product’s Related blog content section in the Live Portal.
Posts support both a rich text editor and a Markdown editor. See the Markdown reference for supported syntax and known limitations.

Configuration

The blog is controlled through two configuration options. Both require a configuration file or environment variable change, followed by a portal restart.
