The Blogs API integration uses a scoped access token with emails/builder.readonly. Configure OAuth or API keys in your GHL account and grant this scope to enable read-only access to emails and builder data for automation.
Authorize APPNAME to act on your behalf in GHL. Use the standard OAuth flow or API keys, and ensure the scopes cover blog posts, categories, and email builder operations.
Key endpoints covered include: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, GET emails/schedule, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, and GET /blogs/authors for content and taxonomy management.
Trigger: When a new draft is created in APPNAME, publish a blog post via the Blogs API.
Actions: Use POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs.
Method paths: POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Key fields: title, content, slug, categoryId, author
Trigger: A new email draft arrives in APPNAME and is converted into a blog post using the Blogs API.
Actions: Use GET/POST emails/builder and POST /blogs/posts to create posts from email content; optionally use /emails/builder/data for attachments.
Method paths: POST emails/builder, GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts.
Key fields: templateId, locationId, subject, body, postTitle
Trigger: Changes in APPNAME categories or tags trigger metadata refresh in GHL.
Actions: Use GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to align SEO metadata and post categorization; set category associations.
Method paths: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Key fields: slug, categoryId, seoTitle, seoDescription
Faster setup with no-code automation; drag-and-drop workflows connect endpoints without code.
Centralized management of blog content and emails from a single UI.
Easier collaboration across teams; versioned posts and audit trails for content workflows.
A quick glossary of elements and processes used to connect GHL with APPNAME.
An Application Programming Interface that enables software components to communicate.
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to perform an action in an API.
A URL-friendly identifier for a post used in routing and SEO.
A callback URL that receives real-time event notifications from an API.
Automatically pull new items from an RSS feed in APPNAME and publish as blog posts using POST /blogs/posts.
Turn email newsletters into blog updates with POST /blogs/posts and emails/builder endpoints.
Create reusable post templates with SEO metadata and slug checking using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Gather API keys for GHL (Blogs API) and APPNAME; confirm scopes (emails/builder.readonly) and ensure endpoint access.
Map the endpoints to APPNAME workflows: blogs/posts, emails/builder, etc.; set data mappings.
Run tests, validate data flows, handle errors, and deploy to production.
Yes. You can connect Blogs API with APPNAME using no-code workflows in GHL. Focus on endpoints like POST /blogs/posts to create content and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs. This setup lets you automate publishing without writing custom code. In a test environment, map fields such as title, content, and slug to your APPNAME data source and verify the flow before going live.
For an initial setup, you’ll want the core publishing and taxonomy endpoints: POST /blogs/posts to create, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to avoid duplicates, and GET /blogs/categories to assign topics. If you also plan to pull content from emails, include GET/POST emails/builder and POST /emails/builder/data. Validate permissions and scopes in advance.
Yes. When configured, a new draft in APPNAME can automatically trigger a blog post creation via POST /blogs/posts. You can also update posts with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId as changes come in, keeping the blog in sync with APPNAME.
To manage SEO metadata and slugs, use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability and GET /blogs/categories for taxonomy alignment. You can populate seoTitle and seoDescription fields within your blog post payload to optimize search visibility.
No-code workflows can orchestrate email-to-blog processes using the emails/builder endpoints for content and attachments, and the blogs/posts endpoint for publishing. This lets you run end-to-end content pipelines without custom code while preserving data integrity across systems.
Security requires proper scope handling and credential storage. Use OAuth or API keys with least-privilege access, rotate credentials regularly, and audit endpoint activity. Ensure that the APPNAME and GHL integrations only access what is necessary for posting and reading content.
For more ideas, review the three creative approaches listed in this guide: automatic RSS-to-post publishing, email-to-blog workflows, and SEO-driven post templates. You can adapt these patterns to fit your content strategy and team processes.
