3. Create a custom layout using the API

Now that you have set up the first feed, you can start building the layout. For the API, you will need the Flockler site ID. You can find that from the top left corner of your Flockler account.

To fetch all the content from your site, you will simply need to change the site ID to this API call https://api.flockler.com/v1/sites/SITE-ID/articles – check the API documentation for more details.

Of course, you can also select one of the ready-made templates (Wall, Grid, Carousel, or Slideshow) from the 'Display' tab – you customize the styles of any Flockler layout with css.
