Secure the connection with an API key scoped to emails/builder.readonly (as listed in the CSV). Store credentials securely and rotate them regularly.
Authorize Bonusly to access your Blogs API credentials via OAuth 2.0 or API tokens provided by the Blogs API. Keep tokens encrypted and refreshed as needed.
GET emails/builder; emails/builder.write; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; emails/schedule.readonly; GET emails/schedule; blogs/post.write; POST /blogs/posts; blogs/post-update.write; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; blogs/check-slug.readonly; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; blogs/category.readonly; GET /blogs/categories; blogs/author.readonly; GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: when a Bonusly recognition is submitted, create a draft blog post using POST /blogs/posts.
Actions: generate title and content from recognition data, attach metadata, and optionally schedule publication.
Method paths: POST /blogs/posts to create; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slug; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update.
Key fields: title, content, slug, author_id, status, tags
Trigger: once a post is approved, schedule its publication and alert teams via emails/builder.
Actions: publish at a set time using blogs/post updates, and send notifications with emails/builder.
Method paths: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update publish date; POST emails/builder to notify.
Key fields: postId, publishAt, status, notificationList
Trigger: posts older than a defined threshold meet archiving criteria.
Actions: set archived flag, update archivedDate, and optionally move to an archive category.
Method paths: DELETE /blogs/posts/:postId or PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to mark archived.
Key fields: postId, archived, archivedDate
No-code automation lets non-developers build powerful workflows quickly.
Faster content cycles: draft, review, publish—without writing code.
Consistency across emails, posts, and notifications with centralized logic.
You’ll encounter endpoints, HTTP methods, authentication, triggers, and actions that connect Blogs API with Bonusly through GHL.
A specific URL in an API that performs a defined action when requested.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that lets apps access data securely without sharing passwords.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used in the link structure.
GET, POST, PUT, DELETE correspond to read, create, update, and delete actions on resources.
Pull weekly Bonusly recognition highlights and publish a recap post using Blogs API.
Send internal emails via Bonusly to alert teams of new blog content.
Schedule archiving to keep your blog index fresh.
In the Blogs API developer portal, generate a key with the required scopes and paste into GHL credentials.
Complete the OAuth 2.0 flow or supply an API token to establish the link between Bonusly and Blogs API.
Create a workflow in GHL using the endpoints above to fetch content, create posts, schedule, and notify teams.
No coding is required to get started. Use the Blogs API endpoints within GHL to create and manage blog posts from Bonusly data. The no-code builder lets you map recognition events to post fields and set up publish schedules without writing a line of code. You can test workflows using sample data before going live.
Essential endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create content, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update posts, and DELETE /blogs/posts/:postId to remove them if needed. For notifications, use POST emails/builder to craft emails and schedule with emails/schedule.readonly.
Yes. You can schedule publication times and trigger email notifications automatically. Use the blogs post endpoints to set publish dates and the emails endpoints to coordinate alerts. This creates a smooth, hands-off workflow from draft to live post and team notification.
Begin with a sandbox or test credentials. Build a simple workflow connecting Bonusly events to a blog post draft, then run through a publish sequence. Review logs and adjust mappings before going live.
Authentication typically uses an API key with the required scope or an OAuth 2.0 flow. Store credentials securely, rotate tokens regularly, and follow the least-privilege principle to limit access to necessary endpoints only.
API endpoints may have rate limits depending on your plan. Plan for bursts during launches and use batching where possible. If you hit a limit, implement retries with exponential backoff and consider staggering workflows.
Logs are available in the GHL integration dashboard. You can view request/response details, error messages, and timestamps to diagnose issues and monitor workflow performance.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
