To authorize the Blogs API with your GHL account, obtain an API key and configure the required scopes. Store credentials securely and test the connection before going live.
In leadPops create an API connection using your app credentials. Paste the client id and secret, authorize the connection, and validate with a test request to ensure tokens are valid before going live.
Core blog endpoints used in this integration: – blogs/post.write (POST /blogs/posts) – POST /blogs/posts – blogs/post-update.write (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId) – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId – blogs/check-slug.readonly (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists) – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – blogs/category.readonly (GET /blogs/categories) – GET /blogs/categories – blogs/author.readonly (GET /blogs/authors) – GET /blogs/authors
When a new blog post is created in Blogs API, trigger a leadPops update to publish the post on related landing pages and campaigns.
Actions: create a corresponding content item in leadPops, attach it to campaigns, and schedule social snippets.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, categoryId, authorId
When a blog post is updated in Blogs API, sync changes to leadPops to refresh landing page content.
Actions: update corresponding leadPops content, refresh SEO data, re-publish if active.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug
Periodically sync categories and authors to keep leadPops SEO and author attribution up to date.
Actions: pull in authors and categories, map to leadPops fields, update SEO metadata.
GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors
categoryId, authorId
No code required to connect the systems; use your existing API credentials.
Automations run in the background to keep posts and pages in sync.
This integration centralizes content for campaigns and landing pages, improving consistency and ROI.
Important elements include endpoints, authentication, triggers, data mapping, and error handling.
Application Programming Interface, a set of rules that lets apps talk to each other.
A lightweight callback that notifies your app when an event happens.
OAuth is an open authorization framework that grants access tokens without sharing credentials.
A URL friendly version of a post title used in the blog URL.
Automatically pull new posts and publish concise summaries on leadPops pages to boost engagement
Sync SEO titles and meta descriptions to ensure consistent search visibility
Automatically populate newsletter content blocks with latest blog summaries
Collect API keys, client IDs, and secrets from both sides and prepare scopes
Map blog post fields to leadPops content fields such as title, body, category, author, and slug
Run test requests, verify responses, and monitor for errors before enabling the live integration
Both Blogs API and leadPops require secure authentication. Start by creating API keys or OAuth credentials in each platform and grant the minimal scopes needed for content creation and retrieval. After credentials are configured, test a simple post fetch or create action to confirm the connection is working and tokens are valid. If you encounter errors, verify that the correct endpoints and base URLs are used and that the credentials have not expired. Remember to rotate credentials regularly for security.
Essential endpoints include creating and updating posts, checking slug existence, and fetching categories and authors. Use POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs, GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to populate taxonomy data. Mapping these fields to leadPops ensures pages reflect current content and taxonomy. Test with sample data to ensure mappings are correct.
Yes, updates can flow back to leadPops. When a post is updated in Blogs API, trigger a sync to update the corresponding leadPops content item. This keeps landing pages and campaigns in sync with the latest title, body, and SEO data. Ensure you map the postId to the leadPops content reference to locate the right item for updates.
No heavy coding is required. The integration uses existing API credentials and predefined endpoints. Use the provided triggers and actions to automate data flow between Blogs API and leadPops. You may need to configure data mapping once, then test and deploy. If custom logic is needed, you can extend with small no code automations or webhooks.
Slug existence is checked with the slug exists endpoint. Send the desired slug and receive a true or false result. This helps prevent duplicate posts and ensures clean SEO friendly URLs. If a slug exists, you can generate a new slug or append a unique suffix before posting.
The integration relies on standard API authentication methods and secure token storage. Use HTTPS for all requests, rotate credentials regularly, and implement least privilege scopes. If tokens expire, renew them via the provider’s OAuth flow and re-test the connection to ensure uninterrupted data flow.
If you encounter a connection issue, start by checking credentials, scopes, and endpoint URLs. Verify network access and that the target endpoints are available. Review error responses for hints, test with a minimal payload, and consult logs in both Blogs API and leadPops for troubleshooting. Re-authenticate if needed and retry the flow.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
