The Blogs API exposes a set of endpoints to manage blog posts, categories, authors, and email-related actions from GHL. It enables automated publishing and retrieval of content between ABC GymSales and your content library. Second, you can publish new posts, update existing ones, and trigger email workflows when content changes.
No coding is required for basic setup. Use the Zapier App Connector to map fields, triggers, and actions between ABC GymSales and the Blogs API. If you need more complex logic, you can add conditional steps or validations within your Zapier workflow.
Essential endpoints include GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories. These endpoints cover creating, updating, validating posts, and organizing content.
Yes. You can update existing posts using PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Changes push back to the Blogs API based on your mapping, ensuring consistency. Remember to handle slug updates and post IDs carefully to avoid broken links.
Security is built into the integration via OAuth and API keys, with scoped access and encrypted transmission. Regularly review token permissions and enable least-privilege access to minimize risk.
If you encounter connection issues, verify that the correct scopes are granted, confirm the base URL, and re-authenticate if tokens expire. Check your endpoint permissions in the GHL admin and consult the API docs for endpoint-specific troubleshooting.
API documentation is available on the Blogs API developer portal within the GHL platform. It includes endpoint references, authentication details, and example workflows. If you need, contact support for guided onboarding to the Blogs API.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
