To call the Blogs API from Convenia, authenticate with your GHL credentials. Use OAuth 2.0 where supported and pass the access token in the Authorization header with the required scope (emails/builder.readonly). Always keep tokens secure and rotate them periodically.
In Convenia, configure the connection to securely store API credentials and attach the access token to every request. Use a trusted secret and rotate credentials on a regular schedule to maintain security.

Automated workflows between Blogs API and Convenia open up drag-and-drop integrations without writing code
Faster content publishing and real-time updates across channels
Centralized content management maintains brand consistency across platforms
This glossary covers API basics, endpoints, triggers, actions, and the data flows used to connect Blogs API with Convenia.
An API is a set of rules that lets applications communicate. The Blogs API exposes endpoints to manage blog content such as posts, authors, and categories.
A webhook is a callback URL that notifies your app when specific events occur, enabling automatic data flows.
An endpoint is a specific URL in an API that performs an action or returns data.
A slug is a URL-friendly, human-readable identifier for a blog post.
Automatically publish a new post to newsletters or social channels via Convenia when a post is created in Blogs API.
Tag posts by category and author in Blogs API and mirror those tags in Convenia for targeted campaigns.
Check slug availability before publishing and automatically adjust to prevent duplicates.
Obtain API credentials for Blogs API and configure Convenia to use OAuth tokens and the required scope.
Map required endpoints (create, update, slug check, etc.) in Convenia’s connector and ensure proper payload mappings.
Run test requests, verify responses, and set up error handling and retries for resilience.
No-code integration is possible with the right connectors; you can map Blogs API endpoints to Convenia actions using a visual workflow. Start with creating a post and then publish it to your channels without writing code. The platform guides you through authentication, payload mapping, and testing steps. If you need more control, you can add conditional logic and error handling to ensure smooth operation.
Essential starter endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create a post, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. For validation, use GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to enrich content with metadata.
Use OAuth 2.0 tokens and scope-based access. Store tokens securely, rotate credentials, and implement least-privilege access. Regularly review permissions and monitor for anomalous activity.
Yes. Use sandbox or test endpoints if available, or create draft posts that do not publish publicly. Validate payloads and responses, then enable live flow after successful tests.
Slug best practices include keeping slugs concise, keyword-rich, and unique. Normalize case, replace spaces with hyphens, and avoid special characters to ensure clean URLs and SEO friendliness.
Be aware of per-minute and per-hour limits on API calls. Implement exponential backoff retries and idempotent requests when possible to reduce duplicate actions and improve reliability.
Endpoint details are listed in the Core endpoints section above. You can also consult the Blogs API reference for precise parameter names, required fields, and sample payloads.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
