Use OAuth 2.0 with scoped access to the Blogs API, enabling read and write permissions for your app connections.
Zapier App Connector authenticates to GHL via OAuth credentials configured in your app and securely stores tokens for every connected workspace.

Add the endpoints you plan to use (e.g., GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts) to your Zapier app.
Test connections and deployment to production environments.
The Blogs API exposes endpoints to manage posts, categories, and authors. Use the endpoints to create, update, fetch, and validate data. In Zapier, configure triggers and actions that map to these endpoints for automated workflows. The API uses OAuth tokens to control access and ensure security.
No-code automation is possible with Zapier App Connector. You can set up triggers, searches, and actions that call the Blogs API without writing code. For more advanced logic, you can add filters and paths within Zapier.
Credentials typically include a client ID, client secret, and refresh token for OAuth. Some setups may also use API keys with scoped permissions. Store these securely in your Zapier app.
Essential endpoints include GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, and GET /blogs/authors.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slug availability before publishing. If a slug is taken, retry with a unique slug generated by your workflow.
Yes. You can fetch lists of authors and categories via GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories. Use this data to enrich posts and metadata.
Test connections using OAuth tokens and API calls in a controlled sandbox or header environments. Validate responses and error handling before deploying.
