Authenticate to the Blogs API by providing your GHL API key or token and selecting the correct scope. This ensures secure data transfer for blog content and related resources between GHL and FormKeep.
Authorize FormKeep in the integration by supplying your FormKeep API key or OAuth credentials. This enables the connector to push form data and pull blog related information when automations run.
Primary endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/authors to pull author data, GET /blogs/categories to pull categories, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs, and GET /blogs/check-slug.readonly for slug checks. You may also use POST /blogs/post-update.write to update post data and GET /blogs/posts (when available) to retrieve posts.

No code setup required thanks to the Zapier App Connector
Automate workflows without custom development or server maintenance
Centralize content to form data beyond manual transfers
This section introduces core terms used in this guide such as endpoints triggers actions and field mapping to help you build reliable automations
A specific URL resource and method used to access or modify data in an API
An event that starts an automation in Zapier or another integration platform
A task performed automatically by an integration in response to a trigger
Connecting data fields between systems so information flows correctly
Whenever a new blog post is published in Blogs API, automatically create a related FormKeep form submission for newsletter signup or capture intent
Keep status fields in FormKeep forms aligned with blog post changes such as published or draft to ensure accurate representations
Use FormKeep forms to manage notes, tags or archiving decisions related to blog posts from Blogs API
Connect your GHL account and FormKeep account in the Zapier App Connector and grant the requested scopes
Choose the Blogs API endpoints you need and map blog fields to FormKeep form fields
Run tests review logs and enable the live automation
The Blogs API in GHL provides programmatic access to blog posts authors categories and related data. It enables teams to automate publishing and data sharing with other apps. To use it you need a GHL account with Blogs API access and a valid API key or OAuth token. Grant the correct scopes such as blogs/post.write and blogs/post.read to ensure seamless operation with FormKeep.
No heavy coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual setup where triggers actions and fields are mapped in a user friendly interface. If you are comfortable with basic data mapping you can implement this integration in minutes without writing code.
Yes you can map blog title description and URL fields from Blogs API to corresponding FormKeep form fields. You can also map tags categories and author data to enrich forms and workflows.
Rate limits exist on GHL API usage. Plan accordingly and spread calls. The Zapier connector will handle retries and backoff. If you exceed limits you may need to stagger calls or upgrade your plan.
The essential endpoints are post creation update and retrieval for posts plus endpoints for authors categories and slug checks. Use the endpoints that align with your automation goals and avoid unnecessary calls.
Test by running a sample post creation or update and verify that FormKeep receives the mapped data. Check logs in Zapier and the target apps to validate field mappings and triggers.
API keys can be generated in your GHL account under API access. Copy the key and paste into the Zapier connector when prompted. For FormKeep use either the API key or OAuth credentials as per your setup and ensure permissions match the endpoints used.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
