Obtain a valid access token for the Blogs API with the required scope emails/builder.readonly, then attach it as a Bearer token to every request.
Element451 uses the same GHL access token in this integration. Store credentials securely and rotate them per your security policy.
In this connection, the following endpoints are used: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder/data, POST /emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and related write/endpoints for blog creation and updates including POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors.
Trigger: when a new article is created in Element451, create a corresponding post in Blogs API.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts to create; map title, content, slug, author, and category; set publish status as needed.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, authorId, categoryId, status
Trigger: when Element451 edits are saved, update the corresponding post in Blogs API.
Actions: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update; adjust title/content/slug as needed.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug
Trigger: before publish, check slug existence and fetch author/category info.
Actions: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug, postId
No custom code is required—build, test, and automate using visual workflows and API calls.

This section defines essential terms and explains how the GHL to Element451 integration works in a no-code context.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action in the API.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used in links and routing.
A single article or entry in a blog, created or managed via the API.
The person credited with writing a blog post; can be mapped from Element451 to Blogs API.
Automatically pull new article drafts from Element451 and create posts in Blogs API to save time and unify workflows.
Sync title tags, meta descriptions, and slug settings between Element451 and Blogs API for better search visibility.
Use triggers to align publishing schedules between Element451 and your blog platform.
Obtain an access token with the required scope and securely store credentials.
Choose the endpoints you need (blogs and emails) and set up triggers for create, update, and slug checks.
Run tests, verify data mapping, and monitor activity logs before going live.
You need a valid GHL access token with the required scope (emails/builder.readonly) and App credentials for Element451. Ensure your token is securely stored and rotated per policy. The initial setup includes authorizing the app and confirming access to the Blogs API endpoints.
Core endpoints for content creation and updates include POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs. You may also use GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to populate mapping fields. Emails-related endpoints are used for notification workflows if enabled.
Slug validation is handled by GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure uniqueness before publishing. If a conflict is found, you’ll need to adjust the slug and retry. Updates to a post may also require slug adjustments via the same slug-check process.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and token scope. If you hit limits, implement exponential backoff and retry logic. Monitor the rate limits in your API response headers and adjust polling or batch sizes accordingly.
Authors and categories are retrieved via GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories. Map Element451 fields to the corresponding blog post fields in Blogs API to keep metadata aligned across systems.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
