To access the Blogs API from Accelevents, use your API credentials with the provided scope (emails/builder.readonly) and store them securely. Authenticate once, then let the integration handle secure calls to create or update posts.
Set up OAuth in your Accelevents app and authorize the GHL integration. Use a client ID and secret, configure the redirect URI, and grant the necessary scopes to enable content synchronization.

Speed: publish and update blog content from event data without writing code
Consistency: centralized content management across events and blogs
Safety: test changes in a sandbox before going live
A quick glossary of concepts you’ll encounter when building and maintaining the integration between GHL (Blogs API) and Accelevents.
A specific URL in the GHL Blogs API that allows reading or writing data, used to transfer content between systems.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used to create readable, shareable blog URLs.
The process of proving identity and permissions for a connection between Accelevents and the GHL Blogs API, typically via API keys or OAuth.
A callback mechanism that sends data to a configured URL when certain events occur, enabling real-time syncing.
Automatically publish a blog post summarizing key event takeaways when an event ends in Accelevents, using data from the event record.
Create or update author profiles in the Blogs API from Accelevents speaker details to maintain a single source of truth.
Publish a series of posts that mirror event sessions, linking each post to the corresponding session slug.
In Accelevents, add a new integration and select the Blogs API target. Configure the API key and scope (emails/builder.readonly) for read access.
Authenticate using OAuth or API key, then grant permissions to read and write blog data as needed by your workflow.
Map event/blog fields to blog post fields (title, content, author, slug). Run a test to ensure posts publish correctly and data sync is seamless.
The Blogs API integration connects Accelevents to a centralized blog management system. It lets you publish, update, and organize blog posts from event data. You can also pull author and category details to ensure consistent metadata across platforms. The result is a streamlined content workflow with fewer manual steps.
Required permissions include read access to blog data (and write access where you need to publish or update posts). In our setup, the scope is emails/builder.readonly for safe read operations, with additional write permissions enabled as needed. Always follow your security policy when granting scopes.
Yes. You can set up a trigger to automatically publish posts when new event content is created or updated. By mapping event fields to blog fields (title, content, slug, author), new posts can go live without manual intervention. Testing is recommended before enabling auto-publish.
Authentication is handled via an OAuth flow or API key setup in the Accelevents integration settings. You’ll provide a client ID/secret or API token, then authorize the connection and confirm the required scopes. Securely store credentials and rotate them as part of your security process.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and API usage. If you encounter throttling, stagger requests, cache responses where possible, and implement exponential backoff for retries. Regularly review your integration logs to stay ahead of limits.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
