Start by securing an API key for Blogs API and configure in the Zapier app settings. If supported, use OAuth or token-based authentication and rotate credentials regularly.
In Zapier, connect your GHL account and grant permissions to access endpoints like GET emails/builder and GET emails/schedule. Store credentials securely and test connections before building automations.
API Endpoint1: GET emails/builder; Endpoint2: emails/builder.write; Endpoint3: POST emails/builder; Endpoint4: POST /emails/builder/data; Endpoint5: DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; Endpoint6: emails/schedule.readonly; Endpoint7: GET emails/schedule; Endpoint8: blogs/post.write; Endpoint9: POST /blogs/posts; Endpoint10: blogs/post-update.write; Endpoint11: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; Endpoint12: blogs/check-slug.readonly; Endpoint13: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; Endpoint14: blogs/category.readonly; Endpoint15: GET /blogs/categories; Endpoint16: blogs/author.readonly; Endpoint17: GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: when a template in the Emails Builder is updated or a new template is added, starting a downstream workflow.
Actions: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId
GET emails/builder
Key fields: locationId, templateId, content, subject
Trigger: a calendar event or publish date schedules a post for publication.
Actions: GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
GET emails/schedule
Key fields: scheduleId, postDate, postId
Trigger: a new draft in your CMS or content pipeline triggers post creation in GHL.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: postId, slug, title, content, authorId
Automate content workflows without writing code.
Sync drafts, posts, and publication calendars across tools seamlessly.
Trigger-based actions save time and reduce manual work.
A quick primer on endpoints, triggers, actions, and data fields you’ll encounter when connecting Blogs API to Zapier App Connector.
An address you call to perform a specific operation (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE).
An event that starts a Zap or workflow in your app when something happens in GHL.
The process of proving identity to access the API, typically via API keys or OAuth.
A blog entry that can be created, updated, or published.
Set a Zap to post to /blogs/posts whenever a new draft is saved in your CMS.
Trigger social posts when a new post is published in Blogs API, across your social platforms.
Use categories and slug checks to organize content and archive older posts with automated workflows.
Gather the Blogs API key and any OAuth credentials from your GHL account, then enter them into the Zapier App Connector setup.
Run a few test calls to GET emails/builder and GET emails/schedule to confirm access and data shape.
Create Zaps that publish posts, update templates, and schedule content using the prepared endpoints.
No-code integration is possible using the endpoints; you can map fields, set triggers, and actions without writing code. In more complex scenarios, you can add filters and multi-step paths within Zapier for advanced logic.
Core endpoints include GET emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, POST /blogs/posts, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. Other useful endpoints are GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update posts.
Use API keys or OAuth as supported; keep credentials secure and rotate them regularly. In Zapier, create a connection for GHL with the proper scopes (for example, emails/builder.readonly) and test before proceeding.
Yes. Use the blogs/posts write endpoint to create posts with a publish date or use the scheduling endpoint to queue publication. You can also leverage GET emails/schedule to coordinate timing with other actions.
Typical required fields include title, content, slug, and authorId; optional fields may include categories, tags, and status. Ensure the slug is unique using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before creation.
The official Blogs API developer docs and the endpoint reference for this guide provide the core details. This page also summarizes common workflows and best practices for Zapier App Connector integration with GHL.
Implement retries with exponential backoff and respect quoted rate limits in the API docs. Consider batching requests where possible and using webhooks to reduce polling load.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
