Authenticate using OAuth 2.0 with the scope emails/builder.readonly to securely access builder data. If you need to perform write actions, request the appropriate scopes per the endpoint requirements and follow the consent flow to grant access.
In the Zapier App Connector, configure OAuth credentials and authorize the app to access your GHL Blogs API. This enables token-based access for automated workflows without exposing credentials in your automations.

Key elements and processes explained for this integration include API, endpoints, OAuth, and data fields.
An API is a defined set of endpoints that lets apps read and write data in Blogs API.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action in the API.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that allows apps to access user data securely.
A callback URL that receives real-time updates from Blogs API.
Automatically publish new Blogs API posts to Covve Scan channels via a Zapier workflow.
Enrich posts with categories and slug validation to improve SEO and discovery.
Send digest alerts to teams when new content goes live.
In the Zapier App Connector, authorize access to the Blogs API.
Choose endpoints and map fields (e.g., emails/builder, blogs/posts) to your Zap steps.
Run tests to validate data flow and deploy to production.
The Blogs API is a set of endpoints that lets you read and write blog content and related data within GHL. This API is accessible to the Zapier App Connector to automate tasks between Blogs API and Covve Scan. In practice, you’ll authorize the connector, pick the posts, authors, and categories endpoints you need, and map fields into your Zap steps. Testing confirms that data flows correctly and that your automations trigger as expected. Getting started involves configuring OAuth, selecting the right scopes (for example, emails/builder.readonly for read access), and validating each step in the Zap editor before going live.
No heavy coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual workflow builder with pre-built actions that connect endpoint calls. You can string together triggers and actions to automate content publishing, updates, and notifications. If you need basic transformations, you can use Zapier’s built-in utilities or add small inline code steps. For complex logic, keep the flow modular: separate data retrieval, processing, and posting into distinct steps.
Key endpoints often include POST /blogs/posts to publish content, GET /blogs/authors to pull author data, and GET /blogs/categories to retrieve categories. Slug checks via GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists help prevent duplicates. Depending on your workflow, you may also leverage PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update posts or POST /blogs/posts to create new entries as part of automated publishing.
Begin by authorizing the app and selecting a test environment in Zapier. Use the built-in test runner to simulate triggers and verify actions. Review the task history, confirm that mappings align with your data model, and ensure the output in Covve Scan reflects the expected state before enabling live runs.
Slug checks prevent duplicate URLs. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slug uniqueness before creating or updating a post. In Zapier, add a guard step to handle conflicts, and implement a fallback slug strategy if a collision is detected.
Documentation for endpoints is available in the GHL API docs and within the Zapier App Connector’s developer resources. Look for sections covering Blogs endpoints, authentication, and sample workflows. If you can’t locate documentation, reach out to support for current endpoint details and best practices for your workflow.
