Authenticate requests between Formaloo and the Blogs API using your GHL credentials. Store tokens securely in Formaloo’s connector vault and rotate credentials regularly to maintain a strong security posture. The integration operates within the scope emails/builder.readonly and related blog endpoints.
Formaloo manages credentials for the Blogs API via a dedicated connector. Use API keys or OAuth2 as supported, and ensure the appropriate scopes are granted to access blog data and publishing endpoints.

No coding is required to connect Formaloo with the Blogs API. The built-in connectors guide you through authentication, field mapping, and endpoint selection. If you need advanced logic, you can still add conditional steps, but most workflows are achievable with drag-and-drop actions. You can customize triggers and actions to fit your publishing cadence, from immediate post creation to scheduled publishing.
Essential endpoints for publishing include POST /blogs/posts to create content and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update it. For organizing content, GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors are also important. Slug checks (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists) help prevent duplicate links. By combining these endpoints, you can build robust publishing pipelines that align with your editorial calendar.
Yes. Scheduling is supported via the Blogs API scheduling endpoints. You can prepare content in Formaloo and schedule publish times using POST /blogs/post-update (or related scheduling calls) to ensure posts go live when planned. This keeps your content cadence consistent without manual intervention.
Authentication relies on securely stored credentials and tokens. Use API keys or OAuth2 as supported, and limit scopes to only what you need (e.g., blogs and emails endpoints). Regularly rotate credentials and monitor access logs to maintain security. Formaloo’s connector vault helps keep keys encrypted and access-controlled.
Yes. You can pull authors and categories from GHL via GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories and map them into Formaloo fields. This enables accurate attribution and taxonomy in your blog posts managed from Formaloo.
If a slug already exists, the slug-check endpoint (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists) will indicate a conflict. You can then adjust the title or slug to generate a unique URL before publishing. This prevents duplicate URLs and preserves SEO integrity. In workflows, you can automatically append a numbering suffix or date to resolve conflicts.
Documentation and endpoint references for the Blogs API are available in your GHL developer portal and Formaloo integration guides. Explore endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/categories to understand capabilities, then tailor mappings to your content strategy.
