Authenticate requests with your GHL API credentials. Use the scope emails/builder.readonly for read access and keep tokens secure.
Authorize HoneyBook to access and trigger actions via the GHL connection. Maintain secure credentials and rotate keys regularly.
Key endpoints covered include GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; GET emails/schedule; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/posts.

No code required to automate workflows across blogging and client communications.
Faster publishing and outreach by linking content and campaigns in one place.
Consistent data mapping reduces manual updates and errors.
Elements include endpoints, triggers, fields, and data mappings. Processes cover authentication, request flows, and response handling.
GHL API is the developer interface that lets apps connect with GHL to read, create, update, and manage data.
An endpoint is a specific URL in the API that performs a function such as retrieving templates or creating posts.
A blog post item in the CMS or content module.
A URL friendly identifier used in a post URL.
Leverage HoneyBook project data to seed blog topics in the Blogs API for relevant content.
Automatically update email templates when new blog posts publish to keep messages fresh.
Coordinate HoneyBook campaigns with blog launches for coordinated outreach.
Register your app and generate API keys with the scope emails/builder.readonly.
Enable and map endpoints such as GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Run tests, validate data mappings, monitor logs, and switch to production.
No code is required for basic setup. The Blogs API integration with HoneyBook can be configured through the GHL connector UI using the listed endpoints to map data and triggers. Start with read only access to explore data flows without risking changes. If you need custom logic, you can add minimal code or webhook logic later.
The typical scope required is emails/builder.readonly for read access to templates and emails. If you plan to create or modify templates or posts, you may need write-like scopes. Always restrict tokens to the minimum necessary and rotate regularly for security.
Essential publishing endpoints include POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs. Reading templates via GET emails/builder and checking emails data may also be involved depending on the workflow.
Yes, scheduling can be driven by HoneyBook events by pulling schedule data from GET emails/schedule and triggering email sends or posts. Plan the cadence and ensure time zone alignment between systems.
Test the connection by creating a test project in HoneyBook, creating a test blog post, and validating that data appears in GHL as expected. Monitor API responses and logs, and use sandbox/test credentials if available.
API rate limits depend on your GHL plan. Monitor response headers for rate limit information and implement exponential backoff for retries. If you exceed limits, stagger requests or batch operations where possible.
If endpoints or fields change, update your mappings in the GHL connector and reauthorize if needed. Test the new flow in a staging environment before going live to avoid data loss or downtime.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
