To use the Blogs API through GHL, obtain an API key or token and grant the necessary scopes for reading and writing blog data. Store credentials securely and rotate keys regularly.
Authorize CloudTalk to access your Blogs API data via the GHL app connection. Apply the necessary scopes and test access before going live.
– GET emails/builder – POST emails/builder – POST /emails/builder/data – DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId – GET emails/schedule – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – GET /blogs/categories – GET /blogs/authors – POST /blogs/posts – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – GET /blogs/categories – GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: When a new blog post is published, CloudTalk receives a notification and updates the email templates.
Actions: create or update email templates, schedule messages, and publish alerts to channels.
Method/Path: POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: postId, title, slug, publishedAt
Trigger: New blog post is created in Blogs API

Create API keys and grant CloudTalk the required scopes for blogs and email data (emails/builder.readonly for example).
Set up triggers for new posts and map fields to CloudTalk fields and templates.
Run end-to-end tests, verify data flow, and enable automation.
Authentication can be done via API keys or OAuth tokens. Start by generating a secure key in GHL and granting the minimal scopes needed for blog data. Store keys securely and rotate them regularly. In CloudTalk, configure the app connection to reuse this key for each request. Test access in a sandbox environment before moving to production. In production, monitor activity and set up alerting on any auth failures.
For basic syncing you’ll commonly use endpoints like GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/posts (list or search), and POST /blogs/posts to create new content. Map fields such as title, slug, author, and category to your CloudTalk fields. Ensure proper error handling and retries. Validate slug uniqueness with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Yes. You can use no-code tools or built-in automation features to wire events between Blogs API and CloudTalk. This lets you trigger actions when posts are published or updated without writing code. For more complex flows, a lightweight script or middleware can handle data transformation.
Always implement retry logic with exponential backoff and respect rate limits. Use status codes to guide retries and log failures for debugging. Consider creating a queue or using a middleware service to smooth bursts of calls.
Yes. You can map and customize fields such as title, excerpt, author, category, and slug. Use CloudTalk templates and CRM fields to store and surface this data. Apply validation to ensure data consistency.
Minimum permissions typically include read access to emails and blogs endpoints and write access where you create or update posts. In GHL, grant the exact scopes required and avoid broad access. Test permission scopes in a staging environment.
Test in a staging environment by simulating blog publishes, checking data flow to CloudTalk, and validating templates and campaigns. Verify error handling, retries, and success notifications. Once you’re satisfied, roll out to production with monitoring.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
