No coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a no-code interface to map triggers and actions for your Blogs API. You can drag-and-drop fields and set conditions without writing code. The connector also offers built-in test features to verify data flows before going live.
Essential endpoints for publishing and updating posts include: POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to avoid duplicate slugs, and GET /blogs/categories to assign categories. You may also use GET /blogs/authors to assign an author.
Authentication is handled by your Zapier connection. Use OAuth 2.0 where supported or an API key. You’ll authorize the app to access your GHL account once, then your workflows can run without repeated logins. Test the connection to ensure the credentials are working.
Yes. The Zapier App Connector can schedule posts by triggering on a time-based schedule or a CMS event. You can set up recurring actions to publish or update posts at specific times or intervals.
SEO and categories are managed via fields like slug, title, and metadata. You can auto-generate slugs, assign categories, and attach SEO titles and descriptions as part of the post creation or update actions.
Multiple authors are supported. You can map different posts to specific authors by using the author_id or similar identifier from your GHL setup. The integration can handle author assignment during create and update actions.
Error logs appear in Zapier task history and in GHL activity when available. Use the logs to trace failed triggers or actions, review the payloads, and adjust field mappings as needed.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
