Tumblr + Foldr Integration
Tumblr is the classic microblogging platform, now an Automattic property. Embed Foldr URLs in Tumblr posts for larger downloads and files that exceed Tumblr's per-post media limits.
How to Connect Tumblr to Foldr
Create an inbound webhook in Tumblr
In Tumblr's webhook / automation settings, add a new webhook that fires on the event you care about.
Point the webhook at Foldr
Use https://foldr.space/api/v1/webhooks/ingest?token=<your-foldr-webhook-token> — Foldr accepts JSON bodies and deduplicates by source ID.
Add an outgoing Foldr webhook (optional)
If you want events to flow the other way (Foldr → Tumblr), add your Tumblr webhook URL to your Foldr workspace settings.
Common Use Cases
- Link Foldr-hosted downloads from Tumblr posts
- Replace inline media on Tumblr with Foldr URLs when limits block you
- Gate a Tumblr article behind a Foldr form capture
- Track which Tumblr audience members convert on Foldr downloads
Tumblr + Foldr FAQ
How do I connect Foldr to Tumblr?
You connect Foldr to Tumblr via Webhook. Full steps are listed above under "How to Connect". In short: create a Foldr API key, configure the Webhook integration pointed at https://foldr.space/api/v1/, and map Tumblr's data into Foldr's request body.
Do I need a paid Foldr plan to use Tumblr with Foldr?
The Foldr free tier supports basic uploads via the API with 7-day expiry. For integration use with Tumblr — higher rate limits, permanent storage, multiple API keys, and webhook subscriptions — Foldr Pro (from $5/mo) is recommended.
What Foldr features can I call from Tumblr?
From Tumblr you can invoke any Foldr action: uploading files (up to 2 GB each), creating short links, generating bio pages, creating hosted forms, and reading download analytics. See the Foldr API docs for the full endpoint list.
Is there an official Foldr app for Tumblr?
Not a first-party app — Foldr integrates with Tumblr through Webhook, which is usually a better fit because it doesn't require installing an extra app. If you'd rather have a native integration, let us know at foldr.space/contact.
