Use the API key and OAuth token granted by GHL with the scopes listed in your setup (read/write endpoints like emails/builder.readonly, emails/builder.write, blogs/post.write, and related endpoints) to authorize access to both read-only and write resources.
In Rankr, securely store credentials and connect via the Blogs API connector using OAuth2 or an API token; test the connection to confirm permissions before going live.
– GET emails/builder – emails/builder.write – POST emails/builder – POST /emails/builder/data – DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId – emails/schedule.readonly – GET emails/schedule – blogs/post.write – POST /blogs/posts – blogs/post-update.write – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId – blogs/check-slug.readonly – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – blogs/category.readonly – GET /blogs/categories – blogs/author.readonly – GET /blogs/authors
Trigger when a new blog post is published in Blogs API.
Send an email via the Emails Builder in GHL, and create a notification in Rankr or a dashboard card.
GET /blogs/posts
title, postId, slug, publishedAt
When a category is created or updated in Blogs API
Update corresponding category entries in Rankr and refresh category lists on dashboards
GET /blogs/categories
categoryId, name
Post updates or status changes in Blogs API
Sync updates to Rankr posts, update SEO fields and publish changes
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content
Drag-and-drop automation makes data flow without writing code

This glossary defines API terms, endpoints, triggers, and actions used in the guide to help you build reliable integrations.
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to access or modify data in an API.
The process of proving identity and obtaining access to resources.
A real-time notification mechanism from an API to your app.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a post or page.
Automatically compile new posts into a digest sent via email or a message in Rankr.
Push optimized title and meta description updates to Rankr when posts are published.
Store historical post versions and changes in Rankr for auditing.
In GHL, generate an API key for the Blogs API and configure the required scopes (read/write).
Add the Blogs API connector in Rankr, input the client credentials and endpoints, and map fields.
Run a test call to confirm data flows and then deploy to production.
Yes. The integration uses OAuth tokens and scoped API access to protect data. Follow the setup steps to limit permissions to the minimum required. In practice, store credentials securely and rotate keys regularly.
You can start with read-only endpoints to validate data flow and mapping. Then enable write endpoints after successful testing to automate actions such as post creation and updates.
No heavy coding is required. The UI connectors in GHL and Rankr support drag-and-drop and field mapping to connect endpoints. Advanced scenarios may use conditional logic, but basic setups are code-free.
Deployment time varies by complexity, but most basic integrations are ready in 15–30 minutes. Larger data-mapping projects may take longer depending on field alignment.
Yes. You can customize triggers and actions by mapping events (like post published, category updated) to corresponding Rankr actions and schedules. Document each mapping for maintainability.
Yes. Use a sandbox or test mode if available to verify flows without touching live data. Review logs and retry with adjusted mappings before going live.
API docs are available in the Rankr and GHL docs; support teams can assist with more advanced topics like enterprise-scale auth and rate limiting. Visit the developer portals for reference pages and example payloads.
