To call the Blogs API you’ll use your GHL API key or OAuth tokens with the required scopes. In this setup, ensure your token includes the emails/builder.readonly scope and any blogs-related scopes you need (for example blogs/post.write or blogs/author.readonly) to perform the actions described below.
Your app should securely store and refresh tokens, using standard OAuth 2.0 flows where possible and avoiding hard-coded credentials.
– GET emails/builder (read email templates) – emails/builder.write (update templates) – POST emails/builder (create templates) – POST /emails/builder/data (data import for templates) – DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId (remove templates) – emails/schedule.readonly (read schedule data) – GET emails/schedule (read schedule details) – blogs/post.write (create or update blog posts) – POST /blogs/posts (create a new blog post) – blogs/post-update.write (update blog posts) – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId (update a specific post) – blogs/check-slug.readonly (check slug availability) – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists (verify slug exists) – blogs/category.readonly (read blog categories) – GET /blogs/categories (list categories) – blogs/author.readonly (read authors) – GET /blogs/authors (list authors)
Trigger events in GHL (new or updated blog posts) to instantly update Case Status in your app.
Actions: create or update posts via POST /blogs/posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, then push status updates to your app.
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields to map: title, content, status, postId, slug, and a Case Status mapping field in your app.
Periodically pull blog categories to keep your app’s taxonomy aligned.
Actions: fetch GET /blogs/categories and map to your app categories, then apply updates to Case Status data.
GET /blogs/categories
Fields: category_id, name, slug, and parent_id for hierarchical mapping.
End users can request status by slug via APPNAME, resolved with GHL blog data.
Actions: verify slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, then fetch status as needed via appropriate blog endpoints.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Fields: slug, postId, status, lastUpdated.
Leverage pre-built endpoints to automate Case Status without writing complex backend code.
Centralize data flow between GHL and your app for consistent Case Status across channels.
Scale workflows with repeatable templates and auditable logs.
This section covers essential elements: endpoints, authentication, triggers, actions, and mapping between GHL’s Blogs API and your app’s Case Status records.
A set of defined endpoints that enable applications to communicate with GHL’s Blogs API.
The process of proving identity and permissions to call endpoints (token or OAuth).
A URL path that performs a specific operation, such as /blogs/posts.
A URL-friendly identifier that uniquely represents a blog post.
Automatically propagate Case Status changes from GHL to your app using the blogs/post endpoints and real-time triggers.
Aggregate blog-derived status information into dashboards in your app for quick risk assessment.
Allow users to retrieve Case Status by slug using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and related endpoints.
Obtain API keys or OAuth tokens with scopes for blogs and emails as needed.
Select endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and map fields to your Case Status data in your app.
Run tests, verify data syncing, and deploy to production.
The Blogs API provides a structured way for apps to read and manage blog-like content and related data, including Case Status information. It enables your app to retrieve, create, or update posts and associated metadata through clearly defined endpoints. By authenticating properly, you can ensure only authorized apps can access or modify content. This integration helps you keep Case Status in sync across platforms, so teams have a single source of truth and consistent updates.
Essential endpoints for Case Status typically include endpoints to create and update posts (POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId), check slug availability (blogs/check-slug.readonly, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists), and fetch categories or authors (GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors). Mapping these endpoints to your app’s data model lets you reflect status changes, track publication state, and surface relevant metadata in Case Status dashboards.
Authentication is done with a GHL API key or OAuth tokens. You’ll need to attach the appropriate scopes for the endpoints you intend to call (for example emails/builder.readonly for email-related actions and blogs/* for blog-related actions). Store tokens securely and refresh them as needed. Always follow security best practices, including least-privilege access and rotating credentials regularly.
No-code options exist for basic read-only scenarios, but more complex syncing typically requires some setup, such as mapping fields between GHL and APPNAME and defining triggers. You can start with simple reads (like pulling categories) and gradually add write capabilities as your needs grow. Using pre-built connectors or middleware can reduce custom code while still achieving reliable data flow.
Yes. You can tailor data mapping to align with your Case Status schema in APPNAME. Map fields such as title, slug, status, and timestamps to your internal records and dashboards. Consider creating translation rules or lookup tables for categories, authors, and other metadata.
Test the connection by authenticating, calling a simple read endpoint (like GET /blogs/categories), and verifying that results appear in APPNAME. Use test posts to validate create/update flows, then gradually shift to production data.
Official endpoint documentation is available in the GHL developer docs for Blogs API. Look for sections covering authentication, endpoint references, and example payloads. If you’re using an integration platform, consult its connector docs for mapping and triggers.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
