Use OAuth or an API key with the scope emails/builder.readonly to securely connect your GHL Blogs API.
Provide your connectivity credentials in the Zapier setup and confirm permissions to access endpoints such as blogs/posts and emails/builder.
GET emails/builder — Read email templates and builders; POST emails/builder — Create a new email builder; POST /emails/builder/data — Add data to an email template; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId — Remove a template; emails/schedule.readonly — Read email schedules; GET emails/schedule — Retrieve schedules; blogs/post.write — Write blog post data; POST /blogs/posts — Create a blog post; blogs/post-update.write — Update a blog post; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId — Update a specific post; blogs/check-slug.readonly — Check slug availability; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists — Check slug existence; blogs/category.readonly — Read categories; GET /blogs/categories — List categories; blogs/author.readonly — Read authors; GET /blogs/authors — List authors
Trigger when a new blog post is published to pull in the content and create or update email templates via emails/builder.
Actions include creating templates (POST emails/builder), updating content (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId), and scheduling emails (emails/schedule).
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, category, authorId
Trigger on new blog post creation to initiate an email campaign.
Create blog posts (POST /blogs/posts) and then trigger emails (POST emails/builder) using templates.
POST /blogs/posts
postId, title, content, slug, schedule
Trigger to fetch authors and categories for taxonomy alignment.
GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories to pull metadata.
GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/categories
authorId, name; categoryId, name
Build powerful automations without writing code — map endpoints to triggers and actions fast.

A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action in the Blogs API.
A notification mechanism that informs your apps about events in real time.
The process of verifying identity and granting access to APIs.
When a post is published, automatically pull in content and trigger an email using the existing template.
Use blog data to generate social posts and schedule across channels.
Store posts in a library via Blogs API and notify the team via the connector.
Enter credentials, select scope emails/builder.readonly, and authorize.
Choose endpoints (e.g., GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts) and map fields to Zapier.
Use test data to verify triggers fire correctly and actions create or update posts and templates.
The Blogs API exposes endpoints to read and write blog posts, email templates, and taxonomy. It enables you to automate content-to-email workflows via the Zapier App Connector. In this guide, you’ll learn how to authenticate, map fields, and trigger actions using common endpoints like POST /blogs/posts and GET emails/builder.
Commonly used endpoints include GET emails/builder for templates, POST /blogs/posts to publish posts, and GET /blogs/authors or GET /blogs/categories to fetch metadata. You can combine these to automate campaigns, schedules, and taxonomy updates across apps.
No coding is required to connect Blogs API with Zapier App Connector; you can configure triggers, actions, and field mappings in a visual editor. If you need advanced logic, you can add custom code steps in Zapier or use webhooks.
Authentication is handled via OAuth/API keys; ensure you grant the scope ’emails/builder.readonly’. In Zapier, provide credentials for both the GHL Blogs API and the Zapier App Connector, then test the connection.
Yes. You can orchestrate blog post creation with email template updates and category/audience segmentation in one workflow. Map fields such as post title, content, and template IDs to ensure data flows correctly between endpoints.
API usage may be subject to rate limits; plan retries and backoffs in your Zapier workflows. Check endpoint quotas in your GHL account and implement exponential backoff to avoid throttling.
Use Zapier test actions and sample data to validate triggers and mappings. Monitor logs and test endpoints like GET emails/builder and GET /blogs/authors to verify connectivity.
