Connect Blogs API by authorizing with your GHL credentials and the required scope (emails/builder.readonly). This ensures only approved actions on your email builder and blog content are permitted.
Zapier App Connector uses OAuth 2.0 to securely authorize access. When you set up the connection, you’ll grant the requested scopes and confirm access to both Blogs API and your messaging workflows.
Core endpoints include GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/categories to help validate content structure and metadata before publishing.

Actions: Create a post via POST /blogs/posts, then send an email notification or publish updates to subscribers.

Paragraph 1: The Blogs API includes endpoints such as GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to manage content and notifications. Paragraph 2: In Zapier, select these endpoints as triggers or actions and map the returned fields to your workflow for seamless automation.
Paragraph 1: No code is required to connect Blogs API with the Zapier App Connector; the platform provides a visual interface to create integrations. Paragraph 2: You may need to set up field mappings and test runs to ensure data flows correctly between systems.
Paragraph 1: Typical authentication uses OAuth 2.0 for Zapier App Connector and API keys or OAuth tokens for Blogs API. Paragraph 2: Ensure you grant the correct scopes (e.g., emails/builder.readonly) and any needed write scopes for posting updates.
Paragraph 1: Yes. You can schedule blog posts by creating the post via POST /blogs/posts and leveraging Zapier scheduling features to delay publishing. Paragraph 2: Use the slug and publish date fields to coordinate timing and avoid conflicts.
Paragraph 1: Slug conflicts can be checked with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to confirm uniqueness before creating a post. Paragraph 2: If a slug exists, modify the slug in your payload or append a unique suffix before posting.
Paragraph 1: Required fields for creating a post typically include title, content, slug, and status; depending on your setup, categoryId and authorId may also be required. Paragraph 2: Map these fields from your source data in Zapier to ensure a valid post creation.
Paragraph 1: Data mapping involves aligning Blogs API fields with Zapier fields—e.g., post title → title, body content → content, slug → slug. Paragraph 2: Use test data to verify mappings and adjust transformers as needed for clean data flow.
