Set up triggers and actions for emails, posts, categories, and scheduling to automate publishing.
The Blogs API provides endpoints to manage emails, blogs, and scheduling. By connecting through the Zapier App Connector, you can trigger actions from incoming data and automate publishing workflows. This integration allows you to pull content from emails, create posts, and control scheduling without writing code.
No extensive coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a no-code interface to map triggers and actions to GHL endpoints. You’ll configure a connection, set up triggers, and define actions using the available UI.
Authentication is handled via OAuth 2.0 tokens and API keys issued for the Blogs API by GHL. Zapier securely stores credentials and exchanges tokens during requests. You’ll authorize once and rely on Zapier to manage token refreshes.
Endpoints cover emails, blogs, categories, authors, and scheduling. Examples include GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, POST /blogs/posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates. The exact set used depends on your workflow.
You can test connections in both GHL and Zapier by running a test trigger and a sample action. Use real or sandbox data to verify that fields map correctly and that responses flow into downstream steps.
Yes. You can schedule posts and notifications so that content is published or distributed at a defined time. Use the scheduling fields in the post data and configure triggers accordingly in Zapier.
Errors are surfaced in both platforms with detailed messages. Logs show the API request, response status, and any validation errors. Use these details to adjust mappings or data formats.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
