The Blogs API in GHL exposes endpoints that let you read and publish blog content and manage email assets. It enables you to pull posts, categories and authors and push new content when your app creates or updates posts. This FYI guide shows you how to connect Rankr to these endpoints to automate your content workflow. By design, you can start with a no code setup and expand with scripting if needed.
To authenticate Rankr with the Blogs API you will register an application in GHL, obtain an access token or API key, and include it in each request header. Maintain token security, rotate credentials periodically, and limit scopes to the minimum required permissions. The setup step by step walks you through creating credentials and testing the connection from Rankr.
For content syncing you will primarily use endpoints from blogs posts, blogs categories and blogs authors as well as the slug check and URL exists endpoints. Use GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to pull data, and POST or PUT /blogs/posts to create or update posts. Map the fields to your Rankr workflows for accurate syncing.
Yes. You can schedule regular syncs between Blogs API and Rankr via a cron-like trigger. Schedule intervals can be daily or hourly and you can run health checks to ensure data remains consistent across systems.
You do not need to write code to get started. A no-code integration can be built using webhooks, an automation platform, or Rankr native connectors to call the Blogs API endpoints. You can add custom logic later if you need more control.
Email automation is a key benefit of this integration. You can configure posts to trigger emails to subscribers via the emails/builder endpoints, for example POST /emails/builder/data to send a notification when a post publishes.
To test your connection, run a test request from Rankr to the Blogs API, verify authentication, and check that data maps between systems. Use sample posts and confirm the content shows up in GHL as expected.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
