The Blogs API supports API keys or OAuth-based tokens. Configure the appropriate credentials in the Zapier App Connector to authorize requests to GHL.
In Zapier, create a connection using OAuth 2.0 or API keys as supported by the Blogs API. Store credentials securely in the connector.

Automate publishing workflows without writing code.
Connect existing content with automated updates across platforms.
Centralized management with real-time notifications and error handling.
Key elements include endpoints, authentication, triggers, and actions used to connect GHL with the Blogs API via the Zapier App Connector.
Application Programming Interface: a set of endpoints that enables data exchange between systems.
A specific URL in an API that performs a defined operation.
A real-time message sent from a server to notify changes.
The process of verifying identity before accessing resources.
Automatically convert new RSS feed items into draft posts via the Blogs API, then publish on a schedule.
Set up a workflow that queues drafts and publishes them at pre-defined times.
Automatically generate email newsletters from new posts using the Newsletters API and the App Connector.
Obtain your Blogs API key and set up OAuth credentials in Zapier.
In the App Connector, select the endpoints you will use for posts, categories, and authors.
Run test actions and monitor logs, then deploy to production.
No coding is required to connect Blogs API with GHL using the Zapier App Connector. The connector provides pre-built actions and triggers that map to common blog workflows. If you’re new, start with a simple post publish trigger and gradually add categories, authors, and scheduling to build a robust automation.
For post publishing, you typically need endpoints that create or update posts, check slug existence, and fetch author and category data. In Zapier, configure the trigger for new or updated posts, then map fields like title, content, slug, categoryId, and authorId to the corresponding API calls.
Authentication is handled in the App Connector. Use OAuth 2.0 or API keys as supported by the Blogs API and securely connect your account. Test the connection within Zapier to confirm valid credentials and permissions before enabling automation.
Yes. The integration supports scheduling posts so you can publish at a future date or time, or trigger recurring posts. Leverage the blogs/post endpoints with the postId and scheduling options to automate delivery across channels.
Depending on your plan, the API may impose rate limits. In practice, you can batch updates or stagger requests to avoid hitting limits. Monitor the App Connector logs to adjust frequency and ensure reliable syncs.
Start with a test connection and a single test post. Zapier provides a test tool to simulate triggers and actions. Review the endpoint responses and verify that titles, slugs, and authors match your content before going live.
Connection logs and task history are available in the Zapier App Connector dashboard and the Blogs API endpoint responses. Enable verbose logging where possible and review failed requests to adjust mapping or credentials.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
