This section defines the main components such as API endpoints, triggers, actions, and data mapping that power the Zapier integration.
A set of rules that allows programs to request data from and send commands to the Blogs API in GHL.
Specific URL paths that expose data or actions in the Blogs API. Each endpoint uses an HTTP method like GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE.
A URL friendly identifier used to locate a post or page in the Blogs API.
The process of proving identity to access GHL resources such as the Blogs API.
Set a trigger for new posts and push automatically to Twitter, LinkedIn, or Facebook using the Blogs API endpoints.
Run an action to update metadata or verify slug existence and share with teams.
Create weekly digests by pulling new posts and adding to email campaigns.
In Zapier, select the Blogs API app and authorize access to your GHL account
Choose a trigger such as new blog post, and an action such as create or update post
Run tests in Zapier and turn on the automation
The Blogs API lets you read and write blog data within GHL. In Zapier you can trigger on new posts and perform actions to create, update, or fetch data. This enables automated publishing and content management without switching apps.
No coding is required for most scenarios. Use the Blogs API app in Zapier to set up triggers and actions with a few clicks. If you need more control, you can add multi-step Zaps and conditional logic.
For publishing workflows, use POST /blogs/posts to create content and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slugs. Map fields like title, content, and slug to your destination apps.
Authentication is handled by connecting your GHL account in Zapier. You will be prompted to grant access to the Blogs API endpoints you want to use. Tokens are stored securely by Zapier.
Yes, data mapping is possible in Zapier. You can map title, slug, author, category, and content fields between GHL and your target app. Test mappings in the Zap editor before enabling.
Yes, you can update post slugs using PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Ensure slug uniqueness to avoid conflicts across posts.
Yes, you can explore other endpoints such as emails builder and schedule endpoints to extend automation. Review the endpoint list for additional capabilities.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
