Authenticate securely using an API key and OAuth scope, typically including emails/builder.readonly. Store credentials safely and limit access to IXACT.
IXACT authenticates the connection to the Blogs API using app credentials with the minimum required scopes to read and manage emails and blog content.
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, POST blogs/post-write, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/check-slug.readonly, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: IXACT publishes a blog post and the system fetches the appropriate email templates to trigger a corresponding email send via the emails/builder endpoints.
Actions: update email templates, send confirmation emails, and tag subscribers as engaged.
Method path: GET emails/builder and POST /emails/builder/data to pull and push templates.
Key fields: templateId, locationId, postId, slug
Trigger: new IXACT blog draft or publish event triggers a new post via POST /blogs/posts.
Actions: create blog post (title, content, slug), update statuses, and publish.
Method path: POST /blogs/posts
Fields: postId, slug, title, content
Trigger: time-based schedules trigger periodic updates and reminders.
Actions: schedule emails, update blog statuses, and notify teams.
Method path: GET /emails/schedule and related scheduling endpoints
Fields: scheduleId, time, templateId
Build powerful automations without writing code, using ready-made endpoints.
Drag-and-drop workflows connect IXACT to the Blogs API for seamless content and comms.
Rapid time-to-value with pre-built templates and triggers for common blog/email scenarios.
This glossary explains API terms and how they apply to connecting IXACT with GHL Blogs API.
A specific URL path used to access a resource in an API.
A callback URL used to receive real-time notifications from an API.
The process of proving identity to access a protected API.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used in links and slugs.
When a milestone is reached in IXACT (e.g., a client completes a journey), automatically draft a blog post outline and push it to /blogs/posts.
Link blog publish status to email templates so subscribers receive timely updates when posts go live.
Set up scheduled emails that alert teams and prospects about new blog content and updated posts.
Obtain the API key, client ID, and ensure the scope includes emails/builder.readonly. Store credentials securely.
Connect the required endpoints (blogs/posts, emails/builder, emails/schedule) in IXACT and test the connection.
Run end-to-end tests, review logs, and move to live once all tests pass.
The Blogs API scope in IXACT controls what the integration can read or write, primarily emails and blog content. Use the minimum required scope to limit access and improve security. Always store credentials securely and rotate keys as part of your security hygiene.
To post a new blog from IXACT, you typically use POST /blogs/posts along with supporting endpoints like blogs/post.write and blogs/check-slug.readonly to ensure unique slugs. You may also update templates via POST /emails/builder/data as part of publishing workflows.
Yes. The no-code approach leverages pre-built endpoints and drag-and-drop workflows to automate blog creation, templating, and email notifications without custom code. This makes it approachable for non-developers while remaining powerful.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists (or equivalent) to check slug availability before publishing. If the slug exists, you can adjust the post title or slug generation rule to ensure uniqueness.
You can retrieve authors and categories through endpoints like GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories. This helps populate author fields and category filters in IXACT workflows.
Authentication typically relies on a secured API key and/or OAuth flow with restricted scopes. Use least privilege, rotate credentials regularly, and implement secure storage for keys.
The endpoint list is documented in the IXACT-GHL integration guide and includes endpoints such as GET emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, and GET /blogs/authors. Refer to the guide for a complete, up-to-date reference.
