Use credentials scoped to emails/builder.readonly to access read-only endpoints, and elevate permissions where appropriate. Store keys securely and rotate regularly.
Set up OAuth 2.0 with your GHL account, request the Blogs API scope, and configure your client in Zapier. Use API keys where supported and keep tokens confidential.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. These endpoints enable templates, scheduling, blog post creation and updates, slug validation, and retrieval of categories and authors for enriching posts.
Trigger when a new blog post is created, then draft an email template and schedule delivery using the Emails Builder and Schedule endpoints.
Actions: create an email template via POST emails/builder, populate content from the post data, and schedule sending through GET emails/schedule.
POST /blogs/posts to create the post; POST emails/builder to craft email content; GET emails/schedule to queue delivery.
Post title, content, author, category; templateId; scheduleTime.
Trigger when a post is updated to push changes to subscribers and ensure consistency.
Actions: update post via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; check slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs.
PostId, slug, title, content.
Trigger when a new category or author is added to keep mappings current.
Actions: fetch authors (GET /blogs/authors) and fetch categories (GET /blogs/categories).
GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories.
AuthorId, CategoryId, Name.
Build powerful automations without writing code, using ready-made endpoints and triggers.
Leverage existing APIs to connect Blogs and Emails quickly, shortening release cycles.
Maintain data integrity across posts, categories, and authors with centralized workflows.
This section defines endpoints, authentication, data mapping, triggers, and actions that power your no-code automation between Blogs API and Zapier App Connector.
Application Programming Interface (API): a set of rules that lets apps talk to each other and exchange data.
Webhook: a callback that notifies your app when a specific event occurs so you can react in real time.
Slug: a URL-friendly identifier used in post URLs to improve readability and SEO.
Endpoint: a specific URL path in an API where you can access a resource or perform an action.
Map calendar events to blog posts using POST /blogs/posts and automatically notify subscribers via the Emails API.
When a post is published, trigger emails through POST emails/builder and schedule delivery.
Use GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to auto-assign tags and categories during post creation.
Configure OAuth 2.0 and obtain API keys for Blogs API access, then test the connection in Zapier.
Select endpoints such as GET /blogs/categories, POST /blogs/posts, and GET /blogs/authors to map to Zapier triggers and actions.
Create triggers, actions, and filters in Zapier to automate publishing and emailing using the connected endpoints.
The Blogs API provides endpoints to manage blog content, templates, emails, and related metadata. It enables automation of post creation, email campaigns, and content updates. By combining endpoints like POST /blogs/posts and POST emails/builder, you can publish posts and notify readers automatically. Useful for content teams and marketing workflows.
No deep coding is required. The Zapier App Connector can orchestrate the flow using pre-built actions and triggers. You configure authentication, select endpoints, and map fields to create automated workflows with minimal code.
Endpoints for automation include POST /blogs/posts to create content, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs, and GET emails/builder to manage email templates. Use categories and authors endpoints to enrich posts.
Authentication typically uses OAuth 2.0 with scoped permissions. Keep tokens secure, rotate keys periodically, and follow best practices for storing credentials within Zapier and your app.
Yes. You can fetch authors and categories via GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories and then apply mappings to posts, ensuring consistency across your content catalog.
Test connections by running sample flows in Zapier, verifying each step with API responses. Use test data to confirm creation, update, and email dispatch behave as expected before going live.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
