The Blogs API uses secure OAuth 2.0 to grant scoped access to your blog data. Request tokens with the Blogs API client and use them to authenticate requests from Zapier App Connector.
In the Zapier App Connector, connect the GHL-compatible Blogs API via OAuth 2.0. When prompted, approve scopes such as blogs/post.write and blogs/post.readonly to enable automation.

Trigger fires when a new blog post is created via POST /blogs/posts. The payload can map to your CMS, newsletter, or content calendar.
Actions: publish to CMS, notify teams, update content calendar, or publish social snippets.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, author_id
Trigger fires when a post is updated via POST /blogs/post-update.write.
Actions: sync updates to CMS, refresh SEO tags, re-notify teams.
POST /blogs/post-update.write
postId, updated_fields
Trigger verifies a blog slug exists using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Actions: prevent duplicates, adjust slug for SEO, update post metadata.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug
Accelerate publishing with ready-to-use triggers and actions.
Automate content workflows without writing code.
Keep data in sync across tools with robust error handling and retries.
Elements and processes you’ll encounter when connecting Blogs API through Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL in the Blogs API that performs a defined action when called.
An authorization framework that grants limited access tokens to clients.
A way for apps to receive real-time event notifications from the Blogs API.
A cap on how many requests you can make to the Blogs API in a given time window.
Use the New Blog Post Trigger to publish automatically to your CMS with formatting templates and SEO tags.
Send posts to social platforms, schedule updates, and track engagement metrics.
Check slug uniqueness and update metadata using the slug existence endpoint and post creation path.
Register the Blogs API in Zapier App Connector, select required scopes, and test the connection.
Define a Zap that uses the New Blog Post trigger and actions to update your CMS, then test with sample payloads.
Run end-to-end tests, monitor errors, and deploy the workflow to production.
For this integration you typically need read and write access to blog post endpoints. This includes endpoints like GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. The exact permissions depend on which actions you want to automate. Start with read access to preview data, then request write access for creating or updating posts. Always minimize scope to what you actually use.
OAuth 2.0 is used to securely authorize the Zapier App Connector to access your Blogs API. You will authenticate once to grant scoped tokens, then Zapier can perform the configured triggers and actions without sharing your credentials. If your org requires, you can rotate tokens and revoke access at any time.
The most commonly used endpoints are the blog post creation (POST /blogs/posts), update (POST /blogs/post-update.write), and slug check (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists). These cover publishing, updating, and ensuring SEO-friendly slugs before publishing. Other endpoints can be added as needed for additional workflows.
Yes. You can check slug existence before publishing by calling GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists with the desired slug. This helps prevent duplicates and supports clean SEO practices. Use the result to conditionally proceed with post creation.
Absolutely. No-code automation is the core benefit. You can configure triggers, actions, and data mappings inside Zapier App Connector without writing code. Use templates and sample payloads to accelerate setup.
If calls fail, check token validity, scopes, and endpoint paths. Review rate limits, payload schema, and sample responses. Enable retry policies in Zapier, inspect error messages, and test with smaller payloads to isolate the issue.
Sample payloads are provided in the endpoint documentation within Zapier. You can also generate test payloads from the Blogs API or use sandbox data. Start with a simple post payload and gradually add fields to match your workflow.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
