Authenticate your GHL account to access the Blogs API by securely storing API credentials and granting the necessary read and write scopes for blog data.
Authorize Gleam-io to connect to your GHL account so Gleam submissions can be pushed into your blog posts and categories.

Core elements include the Blogs API endpoints, Gleam-io triggers, data mapping, and the authentication flow that makes the integration reliable and scalable.
GHL API is the programmatic interface for managing resources in the GHL platform, including blogs, emails, categories and authors.
Blogs API is the GHL interface used to create, update, and publish blog posts, categories and authors.
Gleam-io is the external app connected to GHL to capture campaign details or form submissions and push them into your blog workflow.
Slug is the URL friendly identifier for a blog post used to check slug existence and ensure clean URLs.
Set up a trigger that converts Gleam submissions into draft blog posts in your CMS via POST /blogs/posts.
Map Gleam campaigns to blog categories using GET /blogs/categories.
Use blogs/schedule.readonly and POST /blogs/posts to publish on a calendar.
Obtain your Blogs API token and Gleam-io app connection credentials.
Create mappings between Gleam fields and blog post fields using the available endpoints.
Run tests, verify data flow, and monitor results in real time.
The Blogs API lets you create and manage blog content inside GHL. When used with Gleam-io, Gleam submissions can automatically become blog posts, drafts, or updates. This enables a smooth content flow from Gleam campaigns into your blog schedule. By connecting Gleam-io to the Blogs API, you unlock automation without manual publishing steps. You can map Gleam fields to blog post fields and control the publishing state from Gleam triggers.
No heavy coding is required. The integration uses standard API endpoints and triggers that you map inside your automation platform. You configure the connection once, then rely on the endpoints like POST /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/categories to move data between Gleam and your blog.
Essential endpoints include POST /blogs/posts for creating posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates, and GET /blogs/categories for category mapping. You may also use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs before publishing.
Authentication requires securing an API token and granting the correct scopes for blog data. Store credentials securely and rotate keys as part of your security practices. Use the Gleam-io connection to pass the token when triggering blog actions.
Yes. The integration can map Gleam campaigns to blog categories by fetching categories with GET /blogs/categories and aligning them with Gleam campaign metadata.
Test the flow by creating a test Gleam submission, triggering a draft post via POST /blogs/posts, and confirming that the post appears in your blog schedule. Monitor results and adjust field mappings as needed.
Common pitfalls include incorrect field mappings, slug conflicts, and insufficient authentication scopes. Validate endpoints in a staging environment before going live and keep slug generation logic consistent.
