Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Blogs API integration in Zapier?

The Blogs API integration in Zapier allows you to connect your GHL-powered content workflows without coding. You can pull, create, and manage blog posts and related emails through a set of endpoints. Start by authenticating with your API credentials and then configure triggers for new posts or updates and actions to publish via POST /blogs/posts and send emails via POST /emails/builder/data.

Yes. You can publish and synchronize content across multiple blogs or domains by mapping endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts to each target. Zapier can route updates to different blog endpoints and use templates to tailor content per site. This supports multi-site editorial workflows without writing code.

No coding is required. The integration uses no-code triggers and actions within the Zapier App Connector to interact with the GHL Blogs API. If advanced customization is needed, you can extend automations with conditional steps and data mappings, but core publishing and email flows work in a visual editor.

Authentication is handled via OAuth 2.0 or API keys within Zapier. Keep tokens secure, use the provided scopes (such as emails/builder.readonly), and rotate credentials regularly. Use secure vaults or Zapier’s built-in credential storage for best practices.

Essential endpoints for publishing include POST /blogs/posts to create content and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update. For emails, POST /emails/builder/data helps populate templates. Other helpful endpoints include GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors for metadata.

Slug management ensures clean, SEO-friendly URLs. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs before publishing, and update the slug with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId if needed.

Rate limits vary by endpoint. Plan your automations to batch requests where possible and implement exponential backoff. Regularly monitor quotas in your API dashboard to avoid interruptions during peak publishing periods.
