To call the Blogs API from Bucket-io 2-0, obtain a secure GHL access token with the correct scope and include it in each request. Use best practices to keep credentials private and rotate access tokens regularly.
Create and securely store your Bucket-io 2-0 connection credentials, then authorize your app to access the Blogs API endpoints. Test in a staging environment before going live.
Endpoints used include: GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; GET emails/schedule; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors.
Trigger: a new draft is ready in Bucket-io 2-0, initiating a post creation in Blogs API.
Actions: call POST /blogs/posts to publish, then update the post in Bucket-io 2-0 with the new URL slug.
Method paths: POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates.
Key fields: title, content, slug, postId
Trigger: a new category or author is added in Blogs API.
Actions: GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to mirror metadata in Bucket-io 2-0; optionally create/update mappings.
Method paths: GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors
Key fields: categoryId, authorId, name
Trigger: a new post must verify slug uniqueness before publishing.
Actions: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug; if exists, generate a new slug and retry; notify if conflicts occur.
Method path: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Key fields: slug, postId

Enter the endpoint URLs and set the required scopes for the integration.
Run tests, validate data flows, and monitor dashboards before going live.
You’ll need a valid Blogs API key or OAuth token and a Bucket-io 2-0 connection. Make sure the token includes the correct scope for blog operations and authorize the app in your GHL account. Start in a staging or sandbox environment to verify permissions and data flow. Once testing passes, you can move to production with confidence and monitor ongoing activity.
Publishing requires the endpoints POST /blogs/posts and, for updates, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Ensure you have the necessary permissions and that your Bucket-io 2-0 workflow triggers the publishing event. Test with a draft post to confirm slug creation, post delivery, and proper error handling.
Authentication uses a secure access token or API key provided by GHL; include it in the Authorization header. Rotate tokens regularly and limit scope. If using OAuth, ensure you refresh tokens before expiry. Keep credentials confidential and implement best practices for token storage.
Yes. Use a staging environment to simulate publishing and data movement to avoid impacting live data. Use mock posts and endpoints, enable logs, and set up alerts to validate the end-to-end flow before going live.
Slug collisions can happen when two posts share the same slug. If this occurs, the integration can generate a unique slug (for example by appending a timestamp) and retry publishing. You can also adjust the post title to create a distinct slug. Notifications can alert you to slug conflicts for faster resolution.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and endpoint type. Plan for bursts by batching calls and caching responses when possible. If you hit limits, implement exponential backoff and retries. Consider spreading writes across intervals to maintain steady flow.
Errors appear in the Bucket-io 2-0 task logs and in the GHL API responses. Use webhooks or polling to monitor status, and set up alerts for failure states. Review HTTP status codes, error messages, and retry behavior to diagnose issues.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
