No coding is required thanks to the no-code automation features in Ashby and the pre-defined endpoints in Blogs API. Build workflows with triggers and actions—e.g., POST /blogs/posts to create a post, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update it—via a visual builder.
Para 1: For basic publishing, use POST /blogs/posts to create posts and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slugs are unique. Para 2: Retrieve categories via GET /blogs/categories and authors via GET /blogs/authors to populate post metadata.
Para 1: Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. Para 2: If slug exists, modify it or append a unique suffix before publishing to avoid duplicates.
Yes. You can link email templates to blog posts by creating workflows that use email content as post content or trigger a post creation/update. Use both email and blog endpoints to keep content aligned and automate cross-channel publishing.
There is a no-code option to schedule and publish: leverage Ashby’s schedule features with the Blogs API’s scheduling endpoints to automate timing. This enables planned publishing without writing code.
API limits and pricing depend on your plan with Blogs API and your GHL account. Check quotas in your account dashboard. To stay within limits, batch requests and use scheduling to pace activity.
