Authenticate the Blogs API with GHL using your API key or OAuth and set the scope to emails/builder.readonly. Upgrade to write access when you need to create or modify templates and posts.
Dialpad connects to GHL via OAuth 2.0 or API credentials. Use the connected account to authorize calls to endpoints like blogs and emails and ensure the redirect URI and scopes match your GHL workspace.
Representative endpoints include GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/posts.
Trigger when a Dialpad contact or call event occurs to pull a matching email template from the Blogs API and send it automatically.
Actions: fetch blog email templates, create or update emails, and send to recipients.
Methods and paths: GET emails/builder to read templates; POST emails/builder to create; POST /blogs/posts to publish related content.
Key fields: locationId, templateId, postId, slug.
Trigger when a scheduled event is created in Dialpad to queue a blog post via /blogs/posts.
Actions: create posts, schedule email notifications, and update post status.
Methods: POST /blogs/posts, POST emails/schedule, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId.
Key fields: postId, scheduleId, templateId.
Trigger on contact updates or call notes to synchronize author data, categories, and slug existence.
Actions: update blog metadata, sync authors, and refresh category mappings.
Methods: GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Key fields: authorId, categoryId, slug, postId.
Build complex workflows without code by linking Dialpad events to GHL endpoints for emails and blog posts.
Automate communications and content publishing to save time and improve consistency.
Centralize data flow between Dialpad and your blog channel for better analytics.
Learn the core elements—endpoints, triggers, actions, and data mappings—that power a Dialpad to Blog workflow with GHL.
GHL API is the integration interface that lets apps read, create, update, and manage GHL data such as emails and blog posts.
Dialpad is the voice and communications app used to trigger workflows and feed data into the GHL Blogs API.
Blogs API is the GHL endpoint set that manages blog posts, categories, and authors in concert with emails and scheduling.
An API path like /blogs/posts or /emails/builder that performs a specific action.
When a Dialpad call ends, generate a draft blog post and link it to an email template for quick publication.
Summarize key conversations and publish a weekly recap post via Blogs API triggered by a calendar or call event.
Keep author bios and tags current by syncing from Dialpad metadata into the Blogs API.
Connect your Dialpad and GHL accounts and grant the necessary permissions for reading emails and posting blogs.
Select endpoints such as emails/builder and blogs/posts and set trigger conditions from Dialpad events.
Use sample data to verify end to end flow from Dialpad events to blog posts and emails.
You authenticate with GHL using either an API key or OAuth credentials. Ensure the client has the proper scopes for emails and blog data, typically including read and write access. If you only need read access for templates, the emails/builder.readonly scope suffices. For publishing posts and updating templates, grants with write permissions are required. After authentication, verify your connection by listing available templates and posts.
Core endpoints include GET emails/builder to read templates, POST emails/builder to create or update templates, POST /blogs/posts to publish posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update posts, and GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to pull reference data. You may also use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs before publishing. These endpoints cover reading, creating, and updating both emails and blog content.
Yes, you can schedule blog posts from Dialpad by using the Blogs API schedule workflow. Create a post with a publish time and attach or trigger the corresponding email notification. This requires the blogs posts endpoint and the emails schedule endpoint to ensure timely delivery alongside publication.
Write access to emails/builder is often required when you need to create or modify templates that accompany blog posts. If your use case only reads data or triggers actions without changing templates, readonly access may be sufficient. Always follow least privilege and grant only the necessary scopes.
Slug existence checks help prevent duplicate posts. Use the GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists endpoint to verify that a slug is unique before publishing. If the slug exists, adjust the slug or update the existing post accordingly to avoid conflicts.
Key terms include GHL API, Dialpad, Blogs API, endpoints, triggers, actions, and slug. Understanding these concepts helps you map events from Dialpad to GHL resources like emails and blog posts. The glossary section provides formal definitions for quick reference.
Testing the integration involves simulating Dialpad events and validating that corresponding blog posts and emails are created or updated in GHL. Use sandbox data, start with read operations, then progressively enable write permissions. Confirm that slugs, authors, and categories align with your content strategy.
