# Create Blog Post

> Create a blog post on the calling key's OWN organisation blog — the post is
scoped to the key's org, so callers normally send only `title` (+ optional fields).
Defaults `status='draft'`. Slug is derived from the title when omitted and must be
unique per org. Honours `Idempotency-Key`. Requires the `blog:write` scope (NOT
granted by the `write` umbrella).

`target`/`brand` are reserved for EquateIt marketing sites: `target='platform'`
writes a public marketing post (organization_id NULL), requires the key's
platform-blog capability, and `brand` (required for platform) selects the surface.

    REST API for EquateIt tutoring organisations. Pipe your sessions, invoices,
    payments, tutor earnings, students, and more into your own tools. Most
    endpoints are reads; a focused set of writes (each gated by a *:write scope)
    create or update data, including creating student/tutor/parent accounts.


    Authenticate every request with an org API key:

        Authorization: Token token=ei_live_...
