Authentication for the Blogs API uses standard secure methods. Ensure you obtain proper credentials and grant the required scopes: emails/builder.readonly and relevant blog permissions to enable read and write actions from Zapier.
Configure the Zapier App Connector to securely authenticate with the Blogs API. Use OAuth2 or API keys as supported, and keep credentials confidential within Zapier’s connected accounts.

Automate publishing workflows without writing a line of code, from draft creation to live posts.
Accelerate content approvals and updates with reliable triggers and actions across platforms.
Keep data consistent between Blogs API and Zapier, reducing manual data entry and errors.
Glossary of core concepts used in this integration: API, Endpoints, Authentication, Triggers, Actions, and Slug checks.
A set of rules and protocols that allows two or more software applications to communicate and exchange data.
A specific URL in an API that performs a defined operation, such as retrieving or updating data.
The method by which an application proves identity to access an API, typically via OAuth or API keys.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used for SEO and readability; slug existence can be checked before publishing.
Automatically push new drafts from your favorite apps into GHL’s Blogs API to streamline publishing workflows.
Keep author lists and categories synchronized so content routing and approvals are frictionless.
Automatically generate and validate slugs to prevent duplicates and improve SEO.
Set up credentials in GHL and configure Zapier to use those credentials securely (OAuth2 or API Key).
Choose triggers such as new or updated posts and map actions like create or update posts in the Blogs API.
Map fields (title, content, slug, author) and run tests to ensure data flows correctly between Zapier and the Blogs API.
You connect the Blogs API to Zapier App Connector using standard API authentication and configure triggers to start workflows. Zapier then uses endpoints like POST /blogs/posts to create content, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slugs, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update posts. This enables powerful no-code automation across your blogging workflow.
No traditional coding is required. You set up connected accounts, map fields, and choose triggers and actions within Zapier’s interface. This lets you automate drafting, publishing, and updating blog content without writing code.
The most commonly used endpoints are POST /blogs/posts to publish, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug uniqueness. You may also use GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories to enrich content data.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slug availability before creating or updating a post. This helps prevent duplicates and keeps URLs clean for SEO.
Authentication can be done via OAuth2 or API keys, depending on how your GHL account and Zapier app are configured. Always store credentials securely in Zapier’s connected accounts.
Yes. The endpoints for authors and categories (GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories) can be used to keep content metadata in sync and drive automation rules across your workflow.
Refer to the endpoint list shown in this guide and the Zapier app documentation for the latest supported endpoints and field mappings. Regularly check for endpoint updates to stay aligned with GHL changes.
