No coding is required thanks to the built-in app connections and webhooks. You can wire CheckoutJoy to the Blogs API using UI-based actions; the endpoints expose templates, posts, categories, and authors which you can orchestrate from CheckoutJoy.
For most workflows, start with GET emails/builder to view templates and POST emails/builder to create or update templates. Then use POST /blogs/posts to publish content and GET /blogs/categories to fetch and apply categories.
Use the OAuth 2.0 flow to obtain access tokens that authorize API calls. Keep tokens secure and refresh them as needed to maintain uninterrupted access.
Yes. Use a staging environment or sandbox if available, and point webhooks to test URLs. Test changes with mock data before going live to avoid affecting production content.
GHL rate limits apply to all endpoints. Implement retries with exponential backoff and respect the Retry-After header when provided. Batch requests where possible and monitor usage with built-in dashboards.
If a slug exists, adjust it or add a unique suffix. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check availability before publishing. Maintaining unique slugs helps with SEO and avoids content conflicts.
API documentation is available in your GHL developer portal and within the CheckoutJoy integration docs. If you need more, contact support for access to endpoint references and examples.
