Authorize Blogs API using OAuth 2.0 in your GHL developer account and grant the necessary scope to the Zapier App Connector. Securely store tokens, refresh when needed, and rotate credentials regularly to maintain access.
Grant the Zapier App Connector access to your GHL Blogs API resources. Follow prompts in Zapier to sign in, approve scopes, and establish a trusted connection for automated workflows.
Endpoint examples used in this integration: GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. Other endpoints such as GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors can be used to enrich posts with metadata like category and author information.
Trigger: New draft created in your content system (or a Zapier trigger).
Actions: Create a post in Blogs API using POST /blogs/posts with title, content, slug, and category.
Method Path: POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: title, content, slug, categoryId
Trigger: Post updated in your CMS or content system.
Actions: Update post via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId and optionally adjust slug.
Method Path: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: postId, title, content
Trigger: New category or author data is available in your system.
Actions: Fetch categories and authors using GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors, then assign to posts.
Method Path: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors
Key fields: categoryId, authorId, name
Automate publishing, updates, and metadata without writing code, saving time and reducing errors.
Build visual workflows to connect triggers, actions, and data mappings across platforms in minutes.
Scale your blog workflow to multiple posts, categories, and authors with consistent data integrity.
This section defines essential concepts: endpoints, triggers, actions, mappings, and data fields used to connect Blogs API with the Zapier App Connector. Use these terms to design robust workflows.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action in the API, such as GET /blogs/posts or POST /blogs/posts.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used to form the blog URL and improve SEO.
Authorization framework that lets applications obtain limited access via access tokens without sharing user credentials.
A callback URL that receives real-time notifications from an API when certain events occur.
Create a Zap that triggers on a new draft and uses POST /blogs/posts to publish to Blogs API with title, content, slug, and metadata.
When a post is edited, use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to synchronize updates in Blogs API from Zapier.
Fetch categories and authors with GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors and apply during post creation for consistent metadata.
Set up OAuth 2.0, authorize access for Blogs API in GHL, and approve scopes for the Zapier App Connector.
Choose a Blogs API trigger (e.g., new draft) and an action (e.g., create post) to build your workflow.
Map title, content, slug, category, and author between Zapier and Blogs API endpoints.
Yes. You can queue posts in Zapier and publish them to Blogs API in batches where supported, while respecting API rate limits. Use multiple actions in a single Zap to stage publish times and ensure consistency across posts.
Required fields vary by endpoint. At minimum, include a title and content. Slug can be auto-generated if omitted. Categories and authors help with SEO and organization.
Use Zapier’s test feature or a tool like Postman to call endpoints such as GET /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify data and mappings before going live.
Yes. You can fetch authors and categories with GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories to populate dropdowns and ensure accurate post metadata.
Post limits depend on your plan and endpoint usage. Monitor quotas in the Blogs API dashboard and implement batching to stay within limits.
Security is paramount. Use OAuth 2.0 for authorization, keep tokens secret, enable rotation, and apply least-privilege scopes for the Zapier App Connector.
Endpoint references are available in the official Blogs API developer docs and within the LiveWebinar integration guide for practical examples.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
