The Blogs API is a RESTful interface that lets you automate blog related tasks from GHL. It connects with BambooHR to trigger content creation and updates without manual editing. You can pull templates, create posts, and manage emails through a no code workflow. The API is designed for clarity and ease of use, even for non programmers.
No coding is required for basic automations. Use built in triggers and actions to connect BambooHR events to Blogs API endpoints. For more complex scenarios you can extend with custom scripts or use a connector platform.
Essential endpoints include GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, and GET /blogs/categories. These cover templates, posts, and categories needed for typical workflows.
Authentication typically uses API keys or OAuth. Ensure scopes cover emails/builder.readonly and blog data. Store tokens securely and rotate credentials regularly.
Yes. Map BambooHR fields such as name, job title, and start date to blog post title, content, and author fields. The mapping is configurable within the workflow designer.
Security and compliance are supported through HTTPS, token scopes, IP allowlists, and audit logs. Most platforms provide access logs for monitoring activity.
API docs are available in your GHL account and in the Blogs API docs. Review endpoint specifics, rate limits, and payload examples there.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
