Authenticate calls to Blogs API using your GHL credentials and the Blogs API key within GHL’s integration layer, then test access from the Greetly workflow.
Prepare your Greetly account, generate any required API keys, and grant permission for reading and posting content in Blogs API.

A quick glossary of terms used in this guide, plus core processes for connecting Blogs API with Greetly via GHL.
GHL refers to the Blogs API integration layer used to connect external apps with Greetly; it exposes endpoints for emails and blog operations.
API stands for Application Programming Interface — the set of calls you use to read, create, update, and delete data.
A slug is the URL-friendly identifier for a blog post used in the slug-exists check.
An endpoint is a specific URL path you call to perform an API operation (e.g., GET, POST).
Automatically generate concise summaries from drafts and publish as blog posts via POST /blogs/posts.
Schedule weekly digests using emails/builder templates and schedule endpoints.
Keep slugs, categories, and author fields in sync as taxonomy changes occur.
Obtain API keys or OAuth tokens and grant the Greetly app permission to access Blogs API resources.
Define how Greetly data maps to Blogs API endpoints and their required fields.
Run test requests, validate responses, and deploy to production with monitoring.
No coding is required for standard workflows. This no-code integration uses the Blogs API through GHL and the Greetly app connector, letting you map fields and trigger actions from a friendly UI. If you need more advanced logic, you can layer in optional scripting, but it is not required to operate typical publishing and notification workflows.
For blog publishing, key endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure a unique slug. Category and author lookups via GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors help populate post metadata.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slug uniqueness before publishing. If a slug already exists, modify it or use the slug generation feature in your workflow. Re-check after changes to ensure uniqueness.
Yes. Use the scheduling features (emails/schedule) to time deliveries and combine with POST /blogs/posts for timely blog publishing. This enables automated digests and alert emails on a regular cadence.
Templates in emails/builder are typically unlimited in the UI, but practical limits come from your plan and performance considerations. Clean organization and archiving old templates helps maintain speed.
Yes. Endpoints GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories can be called to automatically populate author and category fields in your blog posts, reducing manual data entry.
If you encounter issues, verify authentication, ensure the App Connector permissions are correct, and review the request/response logs in your integration dashboard. Re-authenticate if tokens have expired.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
