Authenticate with the Blogs API using the specified scope (emails/builder.readonly). Use either an API key or OAuth2 flow to grant Rankr access to your Blogs resources.
In Rankr, paste your GHL API credentials and select the required scope. Confirm permissions align with emails/builder.readonly and related endpoints.

The Blogs API exposes endpoints like GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, and POST /emails/builder/data to manage email templates and content. It also includes blog endpoints such as GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for post management, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slugs. You can mix email and blog endpoints to create integrated campaigns. This combination enables automated content distribution without manual steps.
No heavy coding is required. Rankr provides a visual workflow builder and pre-built templates to connect the Blogs API. You can connect via API keys or OAuth and configure triggers, actions, and schedules in a no-code fashion. If you need advanced customization, you can extend with lightweight scripts, but most readers will complete setup through the UI.
To test, generate a test API key with the necessary scope, then use Rankr’s test mode to trigger endpoints (e.g., fetch templates or create a post) and verify responses. Check logs for errors and confirm data flows between Blogs API and Rankr. Sanity checks on slug existence and category mappings help ensure accuracy.
Required scopes typically include emails/builder.readonly for template access and read/write capabilities for posting and data updates. Ensure your API key or OAuth token includes permissions that cover both email templates and blog post endpoints you plan to use.
Use the endpoint GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slug availability before publishing. If the slug exists, you can choose an alternate slug or update the post to avoid conflicts. This helps maintain clean URLs and prevents duplicates.
Your API key is found in the GHL developer console under API credentials. Regenerate if needed and re-enter in Rankr’s integration settings. Store keys securely and rotate them periodically to protect access.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
