Access to the Blogs API requires a secure API key with the appropriate scope (emails/builder.readonly for read access and emails/builder.write or blogs/post-write for publishing). Store credentials securely and rotate them regularly.
AppSorteos uses the same GHL credentials to invoke the Blogs API. Provide your API key in AppSorteos’ connector settings and apply the required scopes to enable reading and posting.
– 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
Trigger: New or updated blog entry in AppSorteos initiates a post creation or update via POST /blogs/posts
Actions: create, update, and publish posts; map title, content, slug, category, and author
POST /blogs/posts
Required: title, content, author, slug; optional: categories, featuredImage, publishDate
Trigger: when preparing to publish, verify slug availability before create/update
Actions: validate slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and then create/update post accordingly
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Required: slug
Trigger: AppSorteos posts include category and author data that should be mapped to the Blogs API
Actions: fetch /blogs/categories and /blogs/authors to map metadata to posts
GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors
Required: none; use API responses to map fields
Automate content publishing: publish blog posts from AppSorteos events without writing code
Streamlined workflows: schedule and update posts through the Zapier App Connector
Centralized content governance: reuse metadata like categories and authors
This glossary defines essential terms and outlines the main processes for connecting the GHL Blogs API with AppSorteos
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to perform an action on the service, such as retrieving posts or creating a post.
A URL-friendly, unique identifier for a blog post used to generate links and check existence via the slug endpoint.
The method by which your app proves identity to GHL, typically via API keys or OAuth tokens with a defined scope.
Data about the content such as categories and authors that helps organize and filter posts
Pull highlights from AppSorteos entries and publish a weekly digest to your Blogs API with a single click
Use AppSorteos data to suggest relevant blog categories before publishing
Sync author fields from AppSorteos to your blog posts to ensure accurate attribution
Create or locate your GHL API key with the required scope and securely store it for AppSorteos
Set up the routes and field mappings in AppSorteos to call the Blogs API endpoints
Test end-to-end by creating a test post, verify slug, category, and author mappings, then deploy
You can usually manage the integration with no custom code using the App Connector. If you do need custom scripts, a developer can help set up API calls and field mappings. Start with the no-code steps to connect credentials and test endpoints.
Permissions depend on the scope. For this integration you typically need emails/builder.readonly and, for publishing, emails/builder.write and blogs/post-write scopes. Use least privilege and rotate keys regularly.
Yes. Use the slug-exists endpoint to validate a slug prior to publishing, and set up conditional logic in AppSorteos to skip duplicates.
Start with GET endpoints to list categories and authors, then implement POST /blogs/posts to create content.
Call GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists with your slug; if true, generate a new slug or update existing post.
Yes. Use GET /blogs/authors to map AppSorteos authors to blog authors in the API.
Yes. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update content after publishing.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
