To securely connect, use your Blogs API credentials in Zapier App Connector. Store keys safely, apply the appropriate scope, and test the connection before building automations.
Zapier App Connector requires a secure token based or API key authentication flow to access the Blogs API. Configure OAuth or API keys in the app settings and validate the connection.

Automate publishing workflows without writing code.
Centralize content creation and distribution across channels.
Quickly test, iterate, and monitor results with live endpoints.
This glossary defines the core elements and processes used when integrating GHL APIs with Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action against the GHL API.
A URL friendly identifier for a blog post used in the slug field; must be unique per post.
A method for real time notifications or triggers from GHL to your app.
The process of verifying identity and granting access to API endpoints.
Turn incoming emails into blog drafts and publish automatically when approved. Use emails builder to fetch content and POST /blogs/posts to publish.
Pull content calendar entries from a sheet or email, convert to posts, and publish at scheduled times using the blogs posts and schedule endpoints.
Automatically generate SEO friendly slugs and fill meta descriptions by leveraging the slug check and post create endpoints.
Collect your Blogs API credentials and configure authentication in the Zapier App Connector. Ensure the correct scopes are granted for the workflows you plan.
Connect the endpoints you need such as POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. Map fields like title, content, and slug.
Run tests, review logs, adjust mappings, and set up error handling and retries for a robust workflow.
No coding is required for most Zapier App Connector integrations. The visual builder lets you connect blogs endpoints with triggers and actions without writing code. If you do have coding knowledge, you can add custom transforms or conditional logic to extend your workflow. This makes it easy to start quickly and scale later as needed.
Essential endpoints depend on your workflow. For publishing, you will commonly use POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update them, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug uniqueness. To verify availability of a slug before publish, you can also use blogs/check-slug.readonly. Reading metadata such as authors and categories is possible with GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories.
Yes. You can update existing posts using PUT /blogs/posts/:postId or via blogs/post-update.write depending on how you map your actions in Zapier. Map the postId and fields you want to update, and test the update flow to ensure the content stays in sync.
Slug conflicts are common when publishing. Check slug availability before publishing using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. If a conflict exists, generate a new slug variant or append a unique suffix to ensure uniqueness. Maintain a consistent slug strategy across posts.
Authentication can be done via API keys or OAuth depending on what your account supports. In Zapier App Connector, configure the authentication method in the app settings, securely store credentials, and test the connection before enabling automations.
Yes, GHL endpoints generally enforce rate limits. Plan for retries with exponential backoff in your Zapier workflows and design your automations to batch requests when possible to stay within limits.
Yes. You can fetch authors and categories using GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories. This metadata helps you enrich posts and build filtering or routing rules in your automations.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
