To access the Blogs API from Zapier App Connector, secure a token with the necessary scopes. Start with the Blogs API scope and ensure your credentials can access read/write endpoints for posts, categories, authors, and schedules.
In Zapier, connect the Zapier App Connector using OAuth or API key credentials provided by your GHL account. Store tokens securely and grant only the minimal scopes needed for your workflows.

Automate content workflows without writing any code, tying blog and email actions to trigger events.

This glossary covers authentication, endpoints, triggers, actions, and data fields used in the Blogs API and Zapier App Connector integration.
Verifying identity to access the GHL API and the Zapier App Connector credentials.
A specific URL in the GHL API that performs a defined action (e.g., retrieving posts or updating a template).
A callback URL that notifies your workflow when events occur in GHL or connected apps.
A URL-friendly identifier used in blog post URLs to improve readability and SEO.
Use emails/builder to trigger a new draft in Blogs API whenever a relevant email arrives, then auto-save to POST /blogs/posts.
Before publishing, check slug existence with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; publish via POST /blogs/posts only if the slug is available.
Route approval emails to update or publish blog posts, tying email content to blog post fields.
Obtain API keys, secure tokens with required scopes, and note the endpoint paths for posts, categories, authors, emails, and schedules.
In Zapier, create a Zap using triggers like new blog post or updated email template, then map fields to your destination apps.
Run end-to-end tests, verify data integrity, and deploy to production with monitoring.
The Blogs API exposes endpoints for emails, blogs posts, categories, and authors, plus scheduling for emails. You can create, update, and fetch posts via POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/posts/:postId. For emails, you can manage templates with GET/POST /emails/builder and related data endpoints. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs before publishing. These endpoints enable fully automated content workflows in Zapier without writing code.
No complex code is required. The Zapier App Connector can handle OAuth or API key authentication and map fields between GHL and your connected apps. If you need custom logic beyond built-in actions, lightweight scripting can be added, but many automation scenarios work with triggers and actions alone.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. If the slug is in use, you can modify the title or slug; if not, proceed with posting via POST /blogs/posts. This helps prevent duplicate URLs and supports clean SEO.
Yes. You can schedule emails using the emails/schedule endpoint and related builder actions. Combine this with blog post updates to trigger reminder emails or roundup campaigns on a set cadence.
Supported authentication methods include OAuth and API keys. Use tokens with the minimum scopes required for your workflow (e.g., emails/builder.readonly for reading templates and blogs endpoints for posts and categories). Store credentials securely in Zapier.
Common required fields for a blog post include title, content, slug, authorId, and status. Other fields like summary, categoryId, and publishDate can be included to enrich posts. Ensure the slug is unique before publishing.
