Obtain an API key, configure the scope emails/builder.readonly, and verify permissions to ensure safe read access to templates and posts within GHL.
Grant APPNAME the necessary permissions and test the connection to confirm data flow.
In this integration, you may call endpoints such as GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to manage content and trigger Deadline Funnel actions.
Trigger when a new blog post is published to auto-create or update a deadline in Deadline Funnel.
Actions: fetch post data, create or update emails, and attach to a deadline funnel sequence.
Methods and paths involved: GET emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, POST /blogs/posts
Key fields include templateId, locationId, postId, and postSlug to map posts to emails and deadlines.
Trigger when a blog post is updated or slug changes.
Actions: update post data via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId and refresh slug checks.
Methods: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Key fields: postId, slug, and post status.
Trigger when emails schedule data is ready to send.
Actions: schedule emails via emails/schedule and retrieve templates via emails/builder.
Methods: GET emails/schedule and POST /emails/builder/data
Key fields: templateId, scheduleId, and eventTime.
Fast setup with no custom code required thanks to the API endpoints and templates.
Automations run in the cloud, reducing hosting and maintenance overhead.
Scalable integrations that adapt as your content or workflows evolve.
This glossary explains common terms used in this guide: GHL, API, endpoints, triggers, actions, and the deadline funnel workflow.
GHL refers to the integrated platform API used to connect apps and automate workflows.
Application Programming Interface that exposes endpoints to read, create, update, and delete data.
A specific URL path to call a function in the API, such as GET emails/builder.
An event that starts an automation or workflow in Deadline Funnel.
Set up a trigger that when a new post is published, Deadline Funnel adjusts deadlines and sends a welcome email sequence.
Use slug checks to route readers to the most relevant deadline funnel based on post category.
Schedule reminder emails ahead of automation triggers to maximize blog engagement.
Obtain an API key and set the scope to emails/builder.readonly for safe access.
Connect endpoints like GET emails/builder, GET /blogs/authors, and POST /blogs/posts to your APPNAME.
Test triggers, actions, and data flow end-to-end in a staging environment.
The Blogs API integration with GHL allows you to pull and push blog data to trigger Deadline Funnel automations. It unifies content and audience workflows in one place. Connect your Blogs API to GHL using secure keys and test with sandbox credentials.
A developer account is not strictly required for basic integration, but you may need API keys and proper permission scopes to access builder and blog endpoints. Start with read-only access to validate flow, then expand as needed.
Yes. You can map multiple blogs and categories by using endpoints for posts, categories, and authors, and by routing data through triggers and actions in Deadline Funnel.
Endpoint rate limits depend on your GHL plan. If you exceed limits, implement exponential backoff and batching. Always monitor your API usage.
Use test data, a staging environment, and webhooks to verify triggers. Validate field mappings and ensure scheduled actions fire as expected.
The commonly used endpoints include GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, GET blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. You may not need all of them, but these are the core.
Slug validation checks ensure that URL slugs exist before routing readers to a deadline funnel. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
