To connect Blogs API, obtain your API credentials from the GHL developer portal and apply the correct scope (emails/builder.readonly). Use these credentials to securely authorize requests from Laxis.
Laxis will use the provided API key and token to access the Blogs API. Store credentials securely and rotate them regularly. Ensure the app has permission to read and write blog content.
Primary 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/posts
Trigger: Laxis completes a piece of content and it’s ready for publication.
Actions: create a new blog post via POST /blogs/posts; update draft status with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; verify slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: title, content, authorId, categoryId, slug, publishDate
Trigger: new author or category added in Laxis
Actions: fetch authors with GET /blogs/authors, fetch categories with GET /blogs/categories, assign authorId/categoryId when creating posts with POST /blogs/posts
GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/categories; POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: authorId, categoryId, postId
Trigger: API rate limits or transient errors occur during calls
Actions: implement exponential backoff, retry on network errors, log failures, alert on persistent issues
All relevant endpoints may be retried on failure; include GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories as fallback checks
Key fields: errorCode, retryCount, status
Build automation without writing code to publish and manage blog content
Move faster from idea to published post with streamlined workflows
Consistent publishing cadence and metadata accuracy across channels
Understand the elements and processes: endpoints (paths), triggers (events), actions (API calls), methods (HTTP verbs), and fields (data you send or receive).
A set of rules that let software systems communicate securely and reliably.
A specific URL path that performs a single operation.
A URL-friendly string used in a blog post’s link.
The date and time when a post becomes visible to readers.
Use Laxis to draft outlines and push them to Blogs API for automatic post creation.
Schedule and publish posts on a cadence aligned with your editorial calendar via the Blogs API.
Generate slugs and ensure uniqueness using slug checks before posting.
In GHL, create a developer application and obtain an API key with the required scopes (emails/builder.readonly).
Enter the API key and activate the connection between Laxis and the Blogs API, selecting endpoints you will use.
Run a test post, verify data integrity, and monitor for errors once live.
You can set up a no-code workflow using Laxis to connect to the Blogs API. Most tasks can be completed without coding, but some teams may require developer access for advanced fields. The key is to configure the correct endpoints and set proper triggers and actions.
Core endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug uniqueness, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update drafts after content is finalized. These enable a smooth workflow from draft to published post.
Use API keys or OAuth tokens, rotate credentials every 90 days, and store tokens securely. In GHL you will manage tokens in the app settings or a secure vault; avoid exposing credentials in templates.
Yes, you can fetch authors and categories from the Blogs API endpoints and assign them when creating posts. This keeps your content taxonomy consistent and reduces manual data entry.
If you hit rate limits or errors, implement retries with exponential backoff. Monitor logs, adjust timeouts, and alert the team when problems persist.
To ensure SEO-friendly slugs, use the slug exists endpoint to check duplicates before posting. Incorporate slug generation rules in your workflow to maintain consistency.
Use the integration dashboard, check logs, and test requests. Verify credentials, endpoint URLs, and network access to troubleshoot effectively.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
