To use Blogs API with Cloze, obtain your API credentials, apply the scope emails/builder.readonly, and configure a secure connection in Cloze.
Authorize Cloze to access your Blogs API resources by following the standard OAuth flow or API key setup, then test a quick fetch to confirm connectivity.
Examples you may use include GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, and GET /blogs/authors.
Trigger: a new Cloze post is created, which publishes to Blogs API.
Actions: publish post, set category, author, and tags.
POST /blogs/posts
Required fields: title, content, slug, category_id, author_id, publish_date
Trigger: updates in Cloze post propagate to Blogs API.
Actions: update title, content, slug, and metadata as needed.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Required fields: postId, title, content, slug, category_id, author_id
Trigger: on-demand retrieval to refresh Cloze dropdowns.
Actions: fetch categories and authors to populate mappings and selectors.
GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors
Fields: none required; use query filters if needed
No-code setup with drag-and-drop triggers and actions in Cloze.
Fast deployment without writing code; reusable workflow templates.
Real-time syncing and automated publishing across your content workflow.
Key elements include endpoints, triggers, actions, and data mapping; this section explains how data flows between Cloze and the Blogs API.
GHL API: The interface that exposes blog, email, and workflow-related endpoints used by this integration.
Endpoint: a specific API URL path that performs a function, such as GET /blogs/categories or POST /blogs/posts.
Trigger: an event in Cloze that starts a workflow, for example when a new blog post is created.
Action: an operation executed in the target system, such as publishing a post or updating a post.
Set up a workflow that automatically publishes ready Cloze drafts to Blogs API with a scheduled publish date.
Pull categories and authors from Blogs API into Cloze to keep your taxonomy consistent across platforms.
Build a simple dashboard that flags failed posts, retry attempts, and root causes for quick fixes.
Obtain an API key and set the scope to emails/builder.readonly, then save these in Cloze.
Run the OAuth flow or the API key setup in Cloze, then run a test call to verify connectivity.
Map title, content, slug, category, and author fields between Cloze and the Blogs API, then activate the automation.
Authentication can be done using OAuth or an API key. In Cloze, go to Connections > Blogs API and complete the authorization flow to grant access. Store credentials securely and follow best practices for credential management. Test connectivity with a simple request to verify access, such as retrieving categories or authors, before building your automation.
Core blog post endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create new posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/categories to fetch categories. You can also GET /blogs/authors to pull author data and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs. Additional endpoints like GET /emails/builder or GET /emails/schedule may be used for related automation scenarios, depending on your workflow in Cloze.
Yes. You can schedule posts for future publishing by specifying a publish_date when creating or updating a post. Cloze can trigger these actions based on your calendar or automation schedule. If you need to adjust timing, update the publish_date field or use a separate scheduled trigger to re-run the posting action at the desired time.
Field mapping involves aligning Cloze fields such as title, content, slug, category_id, and author_id with the corresponding Blogs API fields. Use Cloze’s mapping UI to connect each source field to the target API field. Test mappings with sample data to ensure posts are created with correct titles, bodies, and metadata before going live.
If an API call fails, check the returned error message, verify credentials and permissions, and ensure the endpoint path is correct. Implement retries with backoff where supported and review your rate limits. Cloze provides logs to help diagnose the issue quickly. Consider adding alerting for persistent failures so you can address problems promptly.
No heavy coding is required. This integration relies on prebuilt triggers, actions, and field mappings in Cloze. A basic understanding of JSON and data fields is helpful, but most setup can be accomplished using the visual workflow editor. If advanced transformations are needed, small JSON tweaks can be applied within the mapping rules.
API documentation for endpoint usage is available from the Blogs API provider. Look for sections on authentication, post creation, updates, category and author retrieval, and slug checks. Our page also summarizes key endpoints and common use cases to help you get started quickly.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
