To access the Blogs API from Flocksy, configure OAuth 2.0 with the required scopes and securely store tokens. This ensures only approved requests can read and write blog and email data.
In Flocksy, create a new GHL connection for Flocksy and authorize the Blogs API access with the emails/builder.readonly scope to enable read-only access to email builder data.
GET emails/builder; GET emails/builder.write; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; GET emails/schedule; GET /blogs/posts; POST /blogs/posts; POST blogs/post-update.write; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/posts; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/posts; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Trigger: a new email based draft is ready in Flocksy, auto-create a blog post via the Blogs API
Actions: create or update blog posts in the Blogs API; attach content, images, and metadata; optionally schedule for publishing
Method Path Examples: GET emails/builder; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: postId, templateId, locationId, slug
Trigger: updates to email templates in Flocksy trigger updates to blog templates
Actions: create or update blog post drafts using templates; fetch email templates to reuse as blog sections
Method Path: POST /emails/builder/data; POST /blogs/posts
Trigger: new blog post creation or category/author changes in GHL
Actions: fetch and apply categories/authors to Flocksy projects; update posts accordingly
Method Path: GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: categoryId, authorId, postId

Sync GHL categories and authors into Flocksy so editors have richer context
In GHL, create an API credential for Flocksy and authorize access with scope emails/builder.readonly
In Flocksy, map the Blogs API endpoints to your workflows, aligning postId, templateId, and slug fields
Run tests, verify data flows, and enable retries and alerts for failures
You will need a GHL API credential and a Flocksy integration. The scope required is emails/builder.readonly, which allows reading and managing email templates and builder data. Keep credentials secure. During setup, grant the integration read access to emails and blog data, and store client secrets safely. If you need to write data, you may require additional scopes such as emails/builder.write or blogs endpoints.
Start with essential endpoints like GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and POST /blogs/posts to create posts, then verify GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to enrich content. As you grow, enable additional endpoints for templates, emails, and category management. This keeps your workflow lean while ensuring you have the core capabilities for publishing.
Yes. You can generate blog post drafts in Flocksy and push to Blogs API using POST /blogs/posts. Ensure your mappings align the content with the blog fields and templates. After drafting, use the publish or schedule endpoints to go live automatically.
Rate limits apply based on your GHL plan. Monitor API responses for retry-after guidance and implement exponential backoff in your workflow. If you exceed quotas, stagger requests to avoid failures and preserve data integrity.
Test end-to-end in a staging environment using mock data. Validate each trigger and action, review HTTP status codes, and inspect response payloads. Set up test alerts to catch failures early and refine mappings as needed.
Scheduling is supported via blog post endpoints and related workflows. Use the appropriate schedule or post update endpoints to plan and automate publishing times, ensuring content goes live when intended.
Integration logs are available in the Flocksy dashboard and via GHL API error responses. Enable verbose logging and set up alerts so you can quickly identify and fix issues as they arise.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
