Authenticate with OAuth 2.0 using the Blogs API app credentials. Request the scope emails/builder.readonly to access the emails builder data and exchange tokens securely.
Rankr authenticates via standard OAuth 2.0 or API key depending on your setup. Ensure the app is granted access to the Blogs API resources you need and store tokens securely.

Sync posts between Blogs API and Rankr to power emails, campaigns, and landing pages
Reduce manual data entry and accelerate publication cycles
This section defines core data elements, endpoints, and processes used to connect GHL to Rankr via the Blogs API.
A specific URL path that allows a caller to perform an action or fetch data from an application.
A URL-friendly identifier for a blog post used in routing and SEO.
A secure authorization framework that grants limited access to an API.
A real-time HTTP callback that notifies another app of events such as post creation or updates.
Automatically push new posts into Email Builder templates to kick off a nurture sequence.
When Rankr campaigns update, sync changes back to Blogs API and reflect them on site.
Monitor slug performance and categorize content automatically in Rankr.
Create an OAuth connection for Blogs API and grant Rankr the needed scopes.
Configure field mappings (title, content, slug) between Blogs API and Rankr.
Run tests, validate webhooks, then enable automation in production.
You authenticate the Blogs API with Rankr using OAuth 2.0. Create a client in the Blogs API console, grant the Rankr app the required scope (such as emails/builder.readonly), and securely exchange tokens. Store refresh tokens safely and rotate credentials regularly. This setup ensures Rankr can read email templates and trigger blog-related automation without exposing sensitive data. Next, test the connection in a sandbox environment, verify token validity, and monitor API calls to ensure they stay within the allotted rate limits.
For basic syncing, you’ll typically use GET /blogs/posts to pull posts, POST /blogs/posts to create, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update. You may also use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability before publishing. Additionally, GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors help map metadata. Start with a minimal flow: create a post in Blogs API when your Rankr action fires, then test updates and error handling.
No-code is sufficient for most common integrations. The templates and connectors in Rankr let you map fields (title, content, slug) and set up triggers from both sides. You can implement webhooks and scheduled syncs to keep data in sync without writing custom code. If you need highly specialized logic, you can extend the workflow with lightweight scripts or automation steps, while keeping the core connection no-code.
Slug conflicts are handled by checking slug existence before publish via GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. If a slug already exists, you can auto-generate a new slug or prompt for a manual override. Maintain a slug strategy in Rankr and Blogs API to keep URL routes stable and SEO-friendly.
Yes. You can customize Email Builder templates so that new blog posts automatically populate templates with the post title and excerpt. Use the POST /emails/builder endpoint to create or update templates, and map placeholders to post fields. This enables consistent, branded communications without manual editing.
Webhooks deliver real-time events like post creation or updates from Blogs API to Rankr. You’ll configure a webhook URL in the Blogs API and verify it in Rankr. When an event fires, Rankr can trigger subsequent actions such as updating content, sending emails, or starting workflows.
API rate limits and scopes are defined per provider. In the Blogs API, request the scopes you need (e.g., blogs.readonly, emails/builder.readonly) and respect the rate limits documented in the API reference. Regularly review token expiry and refresh tokens to maintain uninterrupted access.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
