# Duda Integration
> Publish GEO-optimized content from Siftly to your Duda website via Zapier.
## Overview
This guide walks you through connecting Siftly to Duda using Zapier as a bridge. After following it, you'll be able to publish GEO-optimized content from Siftly directly to your Duda blog with a single click.
**Difficulty:** ✅ Non-tech friendly — no coding required. Setup takes about 10 minutes.
Duda's direct API requires an enterprise-tier plan. Zapier is the only automation platform with a native Duda "Create Blog Post" action, so Siftly uses a Zapier webhook to bridge the connection. One Zapier account can handle all your Duda sites.
***
## How it works
When you click **Publish → Duda** in Siftly, it sends your article (title, body, description, author, site name) to a Zapier webhook URL.
Your Zap receives the data and uses Duda's "Create Blog Post" action to create the post on your Duda site.
The blog post is created on your Duda website. You can edit slug, tags, and SEO fields in the Duda editor if needed.
***
## Prerequisites
Before starting, you'll need:
* A **Duda** website with a blog enabled (Agency plan or higher)
* A **Zapier Pro** account (\$30/month — [start a 14-day free trial](https://zapier.com/app/pricing))
* About 10 minutes for the one-time setup
Zapier Pro is required because the "Webhooks by Zapier" trigger is a premium feature. One Zapier Pro account covers **all** your Duda sites — no per-site cost.
***
## Step 1: Create a Zap in Zapier
Log in to [zapier.com](https://zapier.com/app/zaps) and click **Create Zap**.
1. Search for **"Webhooks by Zapier"** as the trigger app
2. Choose **"Catch Hook"** as the trigger event
3. Click **Continue** — no configuration needed
4. Zapier shows your webhook URL:
```
https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/abcdef/
```
5. **Copy this URL** — you'll paste it into Siftly in Step 2
6. Click **Continue** (skip the test for now — Siftly will send test data when you connect)
1. Click the **+** to add an action step
2. Search for **"Duda"** and select it
3. Choose **"Create Blog Post"** as the action event
4. Click **Continue**
5. Click **Connect Account** — a Duda login popup opens
6. Log in with your **Duda Agency credentials**
7. Authorize Zapier and click **Continue**
Zapier shows the Duda blog post fields. Map them to the webhook data:
| Duda Field | Select from trigger |
| -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Site Name** (required) | Select `site_name` from the dropdown — OR hardcode your site name (e.g., `www.srgaglobal.com`) |
| **Title** (required) | Select `title` |
| **Description** (required) | Select `description` |
| **Content** (required) | Select `content` |
| **Author** (optional) | Select `author_name` |
| **Thumbnail** | Leave empty |
| **Main Image** | Leave empty |
**Multi-site tip:** Map **Site Name** to the `site_name` field from the webhook data instead of hardcoding it. This way, one Zap handles all your Duda sites — Siftly sends the correct site name with each publish.
The webhook fields may not appear in the dropdown until Zapier receives at least one payload. Complete Step 2 first (connect Siftly), then come back to Zapier and re-map the fields.
Click **Publish** to activate the Zap. It's now waiting for data from Siftly.
***
## Step 2: Connect Duda in Siftly
1. In Siftly, go to **Settings → Integrations**
2. Click **Connect** next to **Duda**
3. Paste the **Zapier webhook URL** from Step 1
4. Enter your **Duda Site Name** (e.g., `www.srgaglobal.com`) — this is sent with each publish so the Zap knows which site to create the post on
5. Optionally enter your **Blog Base URL** (e.g., `https://www.yoursite.com/blog`) — used to show the published post link in Siftly
6. Click **Connect Duda**
Siftly sends a test payload to verify the webhook is active. If your Zap is turned on, you'll see a success confirmation.
After connecting, go back to Zapier and edit your Zap's action step — the webhook fields (title, content, description, site\_name, author\_name) will now appear in the mapping dropdowns.
***
## Step 3: Publish from Siftly
1. Open any content piece in Siftly's content editor
2. Click **Publish → Duda**
3. Click **Publish**
Siftly sends the content to Zapier, which creates the blog post in Duda within seconds.
***
## Multiple Duda sites
One Zapier Pro account handles all your client sites:
**Option A — One Zap for all sites (recommended):**
* Map the **Site Name** field in Zapier to `site_name` from the webhook
* Each Siftly org stores its own Duda site name
* One Zap dynamically routes to the correct site
**Option B — One Zap per site:**
* Create separate Zaps for each site, each with its own webhook URL
* Hardcode the site name in each Zap's Duda action
* Each Siftly org connects with its site-specific webhook URL
***
## Fields sent to Duda
Siftly sends these fields automatically on every publish:
| Field | Description |
| ------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| `site_name` | Your Duda site name (for multi-site routing) |
| `title` | Article title |
| `content` | Full HTML body |
| `description` | Meta description / excerpt |
| `author_name` | Content author |
Duda's Zapier action does not support slug/path, meta title, tags, or draft/published status control. Posts are created with Duda's default settings. Edit slug, tags, and SEO fields directly in the Duda editor after publishing.
***
## Troubleshooting
Your Zap may not be turned on. Go to Zapier → your Zap → check it shows **ON** (green). If you just created it, click **Publish** to activate.
Check Zapier's **Zap History** (Zapier → your Zap → History tab). If the trigger fired but the action failed, common causes:
* Duda account disconnected in Zapier — reconnect it
* Site not selected — edit the Zap and hardcode or map the site name
* Field mapping is empty — re-map the fields after Siftly sends a test payload
Zapier needs at least one webhook payload to detect the field structure. Connect Siftly first (sends a test), then go back to Zapier → edit the action → fields will now appear.
Go to Siftly → **Settings → Integrations → Duda** → **Disconnect**, then reconnect with the new webhook URL.
No. One Zapier Pro account (\$30/month) covers all your Duda sites. Use the `site_name` field to route content to the correct site dynamically.
