Authenticate requests to the Blogs API using your GHL API credentials and the configured scopes. Start by creating an app in GHL with the scope emails/builder.readonly and then exchange tokens securely for API access.
Connect EFC Aquila to GHL by using OAuth tokens or API keys. Store credentials securely, rotate regularly, and ensure only the necessary scopes are granted for smooth operation.
Key endpoints used in this integration include: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/posts, GET emails/schedule, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. Use these to build triggers, actions, and data mappings between Blogs API and EFC Aquila.
Trigger: when a new blog post is created in Blogs API, automatically queue an email broadcast in EFC Aquila.
Actions: render the post using an email template, schedule delivery, and update subscriber tags.
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: postTitle, postBody, authorId, publishDate
Trigger: on a daily schedule or when curated posts meet criteria.
Actions: compile digest content, apply a digest template, and send via emails/builder.
GET /blogs/posts
Fields: title, excerpt, url, publishDate
Trigger: when new authors or categories are added in Blogs API.
Actions: update EFC Aquila author and category mappings to keep data aligned.
GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories
Fields: authorId, name, bio; categoryId, name

A specific URL path in an API that performs a defined action.
The process of proving identity and granting access to resources.
A URL-friendly identifier used in blog post URLs.
Create a workflow that sends concise blog summaries to subscribers using a templated email.
Assemble top posts into a digest and distribute to the team via EFC Aquila.
Publish to social channels and email templates from a single automation workflow.
Create or retrieve API keys and configure OAuth scopes for the integration.
Map posts, authors, and categories endpoints to EFC Aquila actions and triggers.
Run tests, verify responses, and activate automations in production.
No-code drag-and-drop automation lets you connect Blogs API with EFC Aquila without writing code. Use preset triggers, actions, and templates to build your workflows quickly. If you do need a custom step, you can add simple logic in the builder and test instantly.
For a basic sync, focus on endpoints like POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/categories. Use GET emails/builder to pull email templates and POST emails/builder to queue messages. This gives you end-to-end data flow for posting and notifying subscribers.
Authentication uses OAuth tokens and API keys. Rotate credentials regularly and apply the principle of least privilege by only granting the scopes you need (e.g., emails/builder.readonly). Logs and alerts help monitor access patterns.
Yes. You can test in a sandbox or staging environment before going live. Use test posts, authors, and categories to validate mappings, payload formats, and error handling without impacting production data.
Map blog fields like title, excerpt, url, and publishDate to your email templates. Use the corresponding key fields in the P_BEST_CONNECTION_1 section as a guide to align blog data with email content and metadata.
Use the activity logs and endpoint responses in GHL to trace data flow. Set up monitoring alerts for failed requests, and review the ENDPOINTLIST section to verify which paths are in use.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
