This glossary covers endpoints, triggers, actions, methods, and essential fields used when connecting Blogs API with Zapier App Connector.
A blog post is a content item published on your blog. It typically includes a title, body content, slug, and metadata like author and category.
An API endpoint is a specific URL that performs a defined operation, such as retrieving posts or creating a new post.
A trigger is an event that starts an automation in Zapier, such as a new email builder entry or a post update.
An action is the operation performed in response to a trigger, such as creating or updating a blog post.
Automatically create and publish blog posts when a new email campaign is created in the Email Builder, using the Blogs API to post content from templates.
Schedule weekly blog recap posts pulled from your latest emails and drafts, using GET emails/builder and POST /blogs/posts.
Keep blog indexes current by syncing categories and authors from Blogs API into your site automatically via Zapier.
Provide credentials in GHL and configure the Zapier App Connector to store tokens securely.
Choose a trigger (e.g., new email builder entry) and select an action (e.g., create blog post) using the Blogs API endpoints.
Map fields like title, content, slug, author, and category between the trigger data and blog post fields.
The Blogs API × Zapier App Connector lets you automate content workflows by connecting your blog publishing system with your email and automation pipelines. You can trigger post creation from email events and push updates back to your blog from other apps. This helps you scale content without manual steps. The integration supports common actions like creating, updating, and retrieving posts, categories, and authors.
You typically authenticate using API keys or OAuth tokens. In Blogs API, you’ll use your GHL credentials to authorize endpoints, while the Zapier App Connector manages secure token storage and refresh flows. Follow the wizard in Zapier to link your Blogs API account and configure secure authentication in your app.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST /emails/builder/data, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. These endpoints enable content creation, updates, and taxonomy management for blogs and email-driven workflows.
Yes. You can update existing blog posts using PUT /blogs/posts/:postId or POST /blogs/post-update.write. Map the postId in your Zap to ensure the correct post is updated with new title, content, or metadata.
To maintain consistency, sync category and author data from Blogs API to your content system and standardize slug generation. Regularly update taxonomy data and map fields to ensure uniform metadata across platforms.
Common mappings include: title → title, content → content, slug → slug, authorId → author, categoryId → category. You can also map status, publication date, and featured image as needed.
