Authenticate requests from Livabl to Blogs API with your GHL API key and a valid OAuth token. Use the scope that matches your needs (emails/builder.readonly for reading, or adding write access for updates).
Livabl authenticates to GHL via secure OAuth 2.0. Tokens are refreshed automatically and securely stored to protect access to your account.

Permissions granted to access certain API resources.
Whenever a new post is published, automatically draft an email in Livabl using the post data and send a weekly digest.
Sync author, category, and SEO metadata to Livabl for richer landing pages.
Stream post updates to Livabl dashboards for marketing teams to act on immediately.
Collect the API keys, ensure scopes, and confirm data mappings for posts, categories, and authors.
Define triggers (new post, updated post) and actions (create/update content in Livabl).
Run tests, validate data flow, and go live with monitoring.
You will need at least read-only access to fetch posts, categories, and authors. If you plan to create or update content in Livabl, you will require write permissions. Always follow least-privilege best practices and regenerate keys if a leak occurs. Ensure the Livabl app is granted the correct scope for the tasks you intend to automate. In most cases, using emails/builder.readonly for reading data and blogs/post.write or blogs/posts for writing is sufficient.
Yes. You can configure Livabl to both read and write blog data via endpoints like POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, and GET /blogs/authors. Map the required fields (title, content, slug, category_id, author_id) to the corresponding Livabl fields. Use the endpoint list to pick the actions you need for your workflow.
To post new content, use the POST /blogs/posts endpoint and then push a corresponding email or newsletter draft in Livabl. You can also create a schedule via emails/schedule to automate periodic mailings. Ensure your mappings align with Livabl’s email templates and content blocks.
Map fields like title, content, excerpt, slug, author_id, and category_id from the Blogs API to Livabl’s corresponding content fields. Use the slug as a stable URL reference. Keep a consistent naming convention to reduce errors in automation.
Post updates trigger Livabl workflows that refresh the content in dashboards and email campaigns. You can monitor these flows in Livabl’s dashboards and adjust mapping if post metadata changes. Logging and retry policies help ensure reliability.
Yes. OAuth 2.0 is recommended for secure authentication. Your Livabl app will obtain access tokens to call GHL endpoints. Tokens are rotated and stored securely to minimize exposure, and you should implement scopes aligned with your needs.
If a slug already exists, you can use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify availability before attempting to create or update a post. Consider adding a slug generation step in your workflow to ensure uniqueness.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
