Contentful is a content management system (CMS) that allows developers to manage and deliver content across multiple platforms and devices.

The Contentful component allows managing spaces, environments, content types, entries, assets, organizations, webhooks, and bulk actions.

API Documentation

This component was built using the Contentful Content Management API Reference.

Connections

OAuth 2.0

Authenticate using OAuth 2.0.

To connect to Contentful, create a new OAuth application.

Prerequisites

  • A Contentful account with developer access

Setup Steps

  1. Navigate to the Developer Account Settings for OAuth applications
  2. Click Create New Application
  3. Enter the Redirect URI as https://oauth2.flowbuilder.eu.lansweeper.com/callback for EU sites or https://oauth2.flowbuilder.us.lansweeper.com/callback for US sites
  4. Select Confidential for the client type
  5. Select the applicable scope (e.g., Content management manage)
  6. Save the application
  7. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret
Single Scope Requirement

Contentful only accepts a single scope per authorization request. The content_management_manage scope includes read access, so a separate content_management_read scope is not needed.

Available Scopes

Scope Description
content_management_manage Manage and read content in all Spaces
content_management_read Read content in all Spaces

Configure the Connection

Create a connection of type OAuth 2.0 and enter:

  • Client ID: Enter the Client ID from the OAuth application
  • Client Secret: Enter the Client Secret from the OAuth application
  • Scopes: Enter a single scope (e.g., content_management_manage)

This connection uses OAuth 2.0, a common authentication mechanism for integrations.
Read about how OAuth 2.0 works here.
