Authenticate the connection using a secure API key or OAuth token issued by GHL for the Blogs API, then grant EcoSend permission to read and write email templates and schedules.
EcoSend uses a service account or OAuth to authorize with GHL. Store tokens securely and refresh as needed to keep the feed alive.
Key endpoints include GET emails/builder; GET emails/schedule; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists for slug checks. These endpoints cover template creation, scheduling, blog post creation and updates, and taxonomy retrieval.

Publish an author profile post and automatically send a welcome email in EcoSend.
Obtain API keys or OAuth tokens and authorize EcoSend to access Blogs API resources.
Map post fields to email template fields and test end points.
Run end-to-end tests and deploy the integration to production.
No coding is required. This guide shows you how to connect EcoSend with the Blogs API using GHL connectors and built in automation features. You can set up triggers, actions, and mappings through the UI without touching code. If you need more complex logic, you can layer in Zapier or custom webhooks, but it is not required.
Key endpoints include GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists for slug checks. Use these to create, update, and sync content and emails.
Map fields such as title, excerpt, and author to corresponding email subject, preheader, and body fields. Use slug to build deep links and track post identity in campaigns.
Auth uses tokens granted by GHL for API access. EcoSend stores and refreshes tokens securely. Rotate tokens regularly and follow best practices for API security.
Yes. Use a sandbox or test list in EcoSend, and simulate blog posts and email sends. Most platforms provide test modes to prevent real messages during validation.
When a post is deleted, related emails can be archived or deleted. The integration can be configured to automatically purge or retain in history based on your data retention policy.
Analytics for blog driven emails is available in EcoSend reporting and can be correlated with blog post data from the Blogs API for open rates and click through metrics.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
