To authorize the connection, generate your Blogs API credentials and enter them into Cognism Prospector. Use the approved API key or OAuth flow provided by the Blogs API, and ensure the proper scope is granted for reading and writing emails and posts.
In Cognism Prospector, configure the Blogs API credentials and scopes so the app can access emails and blog endpoints. Maintain secure storage of keys and rotate them as needed.

This glossary covers the core elements and processes you’ll use to connect and automate with the GHL Blogs API via Cognism Prospector.
A defined URL and HTTP method that lets your app perform an action in the GHL Blogs API (read, create, update, delete).
A blog entry created via the Blogs API containing a title, slug, content, and metadata.
Credentials and flows that authorize your app to access the GHL APIs, typically via API keys or OAuth.
A URL-friendly identifier for a blog post used in the post URL and SEO metadata.
Use lead events to generate draft posts and publish when criteria are met, reducing manual drafting time.
Schedule posts based on campaign milestones and lead nurture steps to maintain momentum.
Notify when slug conflicts occur and auto-suggest alternatives to keep SEO strong.
Obtain your Blogs API key and any OAuth details, then configure them in Cognism Prospector.
Add the endpoints you’ll use (blogs and emails) to Cognism Prospector with proper scopes.
Run tests, verify data mapping, and set up error alerts to ensure smooth operation.
No coding is required for this integration. The Blogs API and Cognism Prospector provide no-code connectors and templates that guide you through setup. You can configure credentials, map fields, and enable automations without writing custom code. If you’re comfortable with basic data mapping, you’ll be productive quickly. If you run into limits, you can adjust workflows or queue actions to comply with quotas.
For a typical workflow you’ll use endpoints like GET emails/builder to fetch templates, POST /blogs/posts to create posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update them. You may also reference GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors for metadata. This combination covers drafting, publishing, and updating posts while coordinating with email templates.
Yes. You can automate post creation from Cognism Prospector events or campaigns. When a lead qualifies or a topic is identified, the integration can draft or publish a blog post automatically using the Blogs API endpoints. You can control timing, content, and publication status from Cognism Prospector.
Authentication typically uses an API key or OAuth flow. Credentials are stored securely and scopes are set to allow read/write access where needed. Rotate keys periodically and monitor access logs to keep your connection secure.
Slug conflicts are common when posts are created rapidly. Use the slug check endpoint GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing, and implement automatic slug suggestions or fallback identifiers to avoid duplicate URLs.
Yes. You can schedule posts or create them with a publish date. Use the blogs endpoints to set publishedDate or status accordingly and align with your campaigns and automation timelines.
Rate limits vary by endpoint and plan. Check the API documentation for current quotas and implement retry logic and graceful failures. If you expect higher load, contact support to discuss rate limit adjustments.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
