Your GHL account issues API credentials that Beekeeper uses to authorize requests to the Blogs API. Store tokens securely and rotate them regularly.
Beekeeper securely passes credentials to the Blogs API and requires your app to be registered with proper redirect URIs and scopes.
Core endpoints cover blog posts, slug checks, authors, categories, and publishing actions such as creating and updating posts (e.g., POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories).
Trigger: When Beekeeper drafts content, push to Blogs API to create or update a post.
Actions: create or update posts, assign categories and author, and publish on schedule.
POST /blogs/posts
Required: title, content, slug, status, categories, author_id
Trigger: Beekeeper creates or updates a post; check slug uniqueness in Blogs API.
Actions: call GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and regenerate slug if needed.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Fields checked: slug
Trigger: Update Beekeeper metadata when authors or categories change in Blogs API.
Actions: fetch and map via GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories to posts.

Key elements include authentication, endpoints, triggers, actions, and the mappings between Beekeeper fields and the Blogs API.
An interface that lets Beekeeper talk to the Blogs API to create, read, update, and publish blog content.
A URL-friendly post identifier derived from the title to access a post via the Blogs API.
The HTTP method used to create new blog posts in the Blogs API.
A specific URL path for a resource in the Blogs API.

Pull author and category data from Blogs API to Beekeeper content blocks for consistency.
Validate and generate unique slugs before publishing to prevent duplicates.
Register your Beekeeper app in the GHL developer portal and obtain client credentials; store securely.
Map Beekeeper content fields to Blogs API post fields and set up triggers and mappings.
Test the publishing flow end-to-end and then enable automated syncing in production.
No coding is required to connect Beekeeper with the Blogs API. Use the provided configuration steps to authenticate and map fields. If you do want custom logic, you can leverage the API to extend functionality later. The goal is a smooth, no-code publishing workflow.
Focus on the core endpoints for publishing: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to prevent duplicates, POST /blogs/posts to create, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update. Mapping authors and categories ensures accurate attribution and organization.
Slug management is automatic when possible. Use the slug check endpoint to verify availability and regenerate a unique slug if needed. Consistent slugs improve SEO and avoid conflicts.
Yes. You can pull authors and categories via GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories and map them into Beekeeper content blocks so your blog posts align with your catalog.
Security follows standard API best practices: use OAuth or API keys, rotate tokens, restrict scopes, and store credentials securely. Beekeeper keeps credentials encrypted at rest.
Yes. Use test or sandbox environments if available to validate publishing flows before going live. Check responses and logs to confirm expected behavior.
Error logs appear in Beekeeper and can be routed to your monitoring tools. Review response codes, message details, and endpoint usage to troubleshoot and refine mappings.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
