To use the Blogs API, obtain your GHL API credentials from the developer portal and configure OAuth or API key access in the Zapier App Connector. Store credentials securely and rotate as needed.
In Zapier, connect your Zapier account to the Convoso workflow and authorize the Blogs API connection. Zapier securely stores tokens and prompts re-auth on expiry.

This glossary defines common terms used when connecting GHL Blogs API with the Zapier App Connector.
An application programming interface that enables programmatic access to GHL features.

Gather your GHL API credentials, authorize the Blogs endpoints in Zapier, and confirm the connection.
Create a Zap that uses a trigger (e.g., new blog idea) and an action (POST /blogs/posts).
Run tests, validate data mapping, and enable in production with logging.
No coding required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual interface to map inputs and outputs between tools. You can set up triggers and actions without writing a single line of code. You can also reuse components across workflows. You’ll configure authentication and endpoint calls through simple UI steps, then test and deploy with confidence.
This integration leverages the key Blogs API endpoints such as GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. Not every endpoint is required for every page, but these are the core operations used to create, update, and schedule blog content from Zapier.
Authenticate via GHL credentials in the Zapier App Connector. Depending on your setup, you may use OAuth or an API key. Zapier will prompt for re-auth when tokens expire and provide a secure vault for credentials.
Yes. You can schedule posts by creating a post with a future publishDate or by updating an existing post’s publishDate using PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. This enables automated publishing calendars.
SEO metadata can be set via fields like metaDescription and keywords when you create or update posts. Map these fields in Zapier to ensure SEO data travels with your blog content.
No-code means you can build powerful integrations with a visual editor, using triggers, actions, and data mapping instead of writing code. This speeds up experimentation and deployment.
Refer to this guide for setup steps and refer to the GHL Developer Portal for detailed endpoint documentation. The Zapier App Connector also offers in-app help and sample workflows.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
