Use your Blogs API credentials to authorize requests to the endpoints you enable. Begin with a dedicated API key or OAuth flow based on your orgs security requirements and the scopes you need.
Authenticate Mailbox Power to access the Blogs API using a secure method. The setup should include the required scopes and periodic secret rotation to keep connections safe.
Key endpoints you can use with this integration include: GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; GET emails/schedule; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/posts; POST /blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; POST blogs/post.write; GET emails/builder.readonly; GET emails/schedule.readonly; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors.
Trigger: a new mailbox draft arrives and is tagged for publication
Actions: generate a blog post in Blogs API using the mailbox draft as the post body and assign author and category based on metadata
POST /blogs/posts
title content author category slug
Trigger: time based or event based to re publish updated mailbox content
Actions: update existing blog posts via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId with new content
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId title content updatedAt
Trigger: mailbox derived alerts push changes instantly
Actions: append or update post content via PUT or post to blogs posts with new commentary
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId content
No coding required to publish blog posts from mailbox content
Visual workflow builder maps mailbox events to blog actions with ease
Manage content flow from emails to blogs without writing code
This section clarifies core terms and how the integration uses endpoints to move data between Mailbox Power and Blogs API
A published article created from mailbox content using the Blogs API
A defined path in an API that performs a specific action
A callback mechanism that notifies your systems of events
A secure authorization framework used to grant access to APIs without exposing credentials
Turn incoming mailbox newsletters into blog posts automatically with a single click
Compile daily mailbox summaries into a single blog post for readers
Automatically update blog posts when mailbox content changes
Create an API key or set up OAuth and note the scopes required
Use the workflow builder to pair mailbox events with blog endpoints
Run tests in a sandbox, verify mappings, then deploy to production
No coding is required for a basic setup. Use the built in workflow designer to map mailbox events to blog actions. You can create, publish and update blog posts using simple visual triggers. For more advanced scenarios you can still extend with custom scripts if needed while maintaining security. This approach keeps maintenance low and speeds up deployment. In addition you can leverage templates and blocks to further standardize posts.
For a basic setup you will typically need endpoints to read emails from the mailbox and create or update blog posts. Start with GET emails/builder or POST /blogs/posts and map to your content fields. As you expand, include GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates. Ensure your scopes cover both reading emails and writing posts.
To test the connection start in a sandbox, generate API keys, and perform a end to end flow. Check that emails are retrieved and that new blog posts are created correctly. Verify data mappings and error handling. Use mock data to validate edge cases before going live.
Yes. You can schedule blog postings by using time based triggers in Mailbox Power and mapping to endpoints like POST /blogs/posts with a published flag. This enables automated publishing without manual input. You can also configure recurring schedules for regular content cadence.
Security is ensured with OAuth or API keys and scoped permissions. Use HTTPS, rotate credentials, and log access for auditing. Always validate inputs and guard endpoints against unauthorized requests. Regularly review access scopes and revoke unused keys.
You can update existing posts by sending a PUT request to /blogs/posts/:postId with the new content. Make sure to preserve IDs and track revision history. Implement idempotent operations where possible to avoid duplicate updates.
API credentials are provided in your GHL account under API access or keys section. Store them securely in a vault and reference them in your Mailbox Power workflows. If you miss credentials, reissue them from the developer portal and update your connections.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
