Authenticate requests to the Blogs API using your GHL API key and the needed OAuth scopes for blogs, authors, and categories.
Create a secure connection in Zapier to your GHL account and validate the setup with a test request.
Endoints covered include emails/builder, emails/schedule, blogs/posts, blogs/categories, blogs/authors, and more (GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE variations as needed).
Trigger: when email templates are created or updated in the Blogs API to kick off campaigns.
Actions: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, DELETE emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId
Example methods: GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data
Key fields: locationId, templateId
Trigger: create or update blog posts in GHL when new content is published in Flipsnack.
Actions: GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors
Example: GET /blogs/posts; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: postId, postSlug
Trigger: new blog categories or authors added
Actions: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /emails/schedule
Example: GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET emails/schedule
Key fields: categoryId, authorId
Automate content workflows across Flipsnack and your marketing stack without writing code.
Speed up publishing, scheduling, and distribution to email campaigns.
Centralize data with standard endpoints, reducing manual data entry.
Understand core concepts and how endpoints work together in a no-code integration.
An Application Programming Interface that lets apps talk to each other and perform actions.
A specific URL path in an API that executes a function, such as retrieving posts or creating a template.
The process of verifying identity to access endpoints (keys, tokens, OAuth).
A URL-friendly string used to identify a resource, like a blog post slug.
Set up a zap that creates or updates email templates whenever new Flipsnack content is published.
Automatically pull new authors and categories into your content calendar via the Blogs API.
Use webhooks or polling to push posts to campaigns when changes occur.
Create a connection in Zapier to your GHL Blogs API using your API key and OAuth scopes.
Test endpoints like GET /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/categories to verify access.
Create Zaps that move data between Blogs API endpoints and your marketing tools.
You can use API keys and OAuth tokens to authorize requests. Start by generating a personal access token in GHL and configure it in Zapier with the necessary scopes for blogs, emails, and authors. Keep tokens secure and rotate them per your security policy. For ongoing use, store credentials in Zapier’s connection settings and test with a non-destructive call to confirm access.
Focus on endpoints that manage content and taxonomy: GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. These enable creation, updates, and organization of content for automated workflows. Use endpoint checks to validate permissions before enabling live automations.
Yes. Use a sandbox or test credentials if available. Start with read-only calls like GET /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/categories to confirm access without altering data. Gradually enable write operations once you’re confident in your setup.
No heavy coding is required. Zapier provides a low-code interface to connect endpoints and build automations. Some basic logic in Zapier or your workflow can improve data handling if you have complex rules.
Capture and inspect error responses from the API (status codes, error messages). Implement retry logic and exponential backoff in your automations to handle transient issues. Log errors for troubleshooting and alerting.
Yes. API keys typically have rate limits. Plan calls, batch requests where possible, and cache frequent data to avoid unnecessary requests. Monitor usage via the GHL and Zapier dashboards.
API keys and docs are available in the GHL developer portal and the Zapier app directory. This article provides endpoint references and setup steps to guide you through the integration.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
