Use your GHL API credentials to authorize requests from Zapier App Connector. Store tokens securely and rotate keys regularly.
Zapier App Connector uses OAuth 2.0 to connect to GHL on your behalf, enabling secure, token-based access without exposing credentials.

Outline of elements and processes to understand GHL Blogs API integration with Zapier App Connector
GHL API: The platform endpoints used to access emails, blogs, authors, and categories, enabling automation through the Zapier App Connector.
Blogs API provides endpoints to manage blog posts, categories, and authors within your marketing workflow.
Zapier App Connector connects GHL and external apps, enabling automated workflows without code.
An API endpoint is a URL you call to perform actions like retrieving or updating data in Blogs API.
Set up a workflow that sends a digest email when new posts are published.
Create a Zap that republishes to social platforms on new blog posts.
Repurpose blog content into email newsletters or product updates.
Retrieve your GHL API key and OAuth client from the GHL developer console and securely store them.
Add a new connection in Zapier App Connector using the GHL credentials and select the Blogs API scope.
Run a test to verify data flow, then enable automation in production.
You will need a GHL API key and an OAuth client to connect. Store credentials securely and grant the Zapier App Connector access only to the required scopes. For best results, keep credentials isolated per environment and rotate keys regularly.
The most useful endpoints for blogging workflows are GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs. You can also retrieve authors and categories to enrich posts and automate routing to newsletters or social channels.
GHL and Zapier communicate over secure connections with OAuth and tokens. Data in transit is TLS-encrypted, and your app only accesses data within the granted scopes. On your side, enforce least-privilege access and monitor activity logs.
Yes. Use test or sandbox-like flows in Zapier to validate behavior without touching production data. Start with a small test post and a controlled email template to confirm data mapping and triggers. Then move to production once verified.
No-code setup is supported through the Zapier App Connector. You configure connections and flows in the UI and deploy with click-through steps. Advanced users can add filters, paths, and data transformations using built-in tools.
To update a post, use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId with the updated payload. To check a slug, call GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. If needed, adjust the slug and re-run the check before updating.
Endpoint limits and rate limits are defined per GHL plan. Refer to the API docs for quotas. If you hit a limit, implement backoff strategies and batch requests when possible.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
