Access to the Blogs API through GHL requires secure authentication. Use your API key and secret scoped to the relevant endpoints (Scope: emails/builder.readonly) and rotate credentials regularly.
MarketSharp authenticates with the GHL API using a client ID and secret. Store credentials securely and follow best practices for key rotation and secure storage.

Register the MarketSharp app with the GHL API to obtain a client ID and secret.
Set the base URL, scopes (e.g., emails/builder.readonly), and the authentication method.
Run test requests against sample data to verify mapping, error handling, and end-to-end flow.
The Blogs API exposes endpoints to manage blog content, emails, authors, and categories. It allows you to create, update, and fetch posts and related data from MarketSharp. This guide focuses on practical, no-code ways to connect these systems using GHL as the bridge.
You can implement many common workflows with no-code tools and the GHL API. Depending on the complexity, you may use built-in connectors or custom scripts to map fields and automate actions. The content above provides templates for many typical use cases.
For basic posting, you’ll typically need endpoints like POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slugs, and GET /blogs/categories to assign categories. You may also read existing authors with GET /blogs/authors.
Authentication is performed via client credentials (client ID and secret) or API keys, scoped to the endpoints you use. Secure storage and rotation of keys are essential best practices. Ensure you follow the documented authentication flow for GHL.
Yes. Field mapping between MarketSharp and the Blogs API is possible. You’ll map fields such as post title, content, slug, categoryId, and authorId to the corresponding API fields. Testing ensures data integrity.
Implement consistent error handling by validating responses, logging errors, and retrying transient failures. Use status codes to determine next steps and provide clear messages for users.
Test the integration using sandbox or staging data. Verify end-to-end flows from MarketSharp to Blogs API, including content creation, updates, slug checks, and category/author mapping before going live.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
