To access the Blogs API from Mews, obtain API credentials from GHL and securely store tokens. Use the provided client id and secret to request access, then refresh tokens as needed and scope permissions to read and write blog related data.
Mews authenticates to the Blogs API using the installed credentials. Ensure the redirect URI is configured and tokens are rotated regularly to maintain a secure connection.

This glossary covers API basics, endpoint patterns, authentication methods, and data flow concepts used by the GHL Blogs API and Mews integration.
A defined set of rules and endpoints that let software communicate and exchange data.
A specific URL path on a server that performs an action or returns data.
A mechanism for real time notifications via HTTP callbacks.
The process of proving identity to access an API, typically via keys, tokens, or OAuth.
Automatically convert new blog posts into email templates for newsletters.
Repurpose existing blog content into email templates and social posts.
Validate and manage blog slugs with the slug existence endpoint to improve SEO.
Create GHL API credentials for Blogs API and configure in Mews to authorize access.
Link Blogs API endpoints to Mews fields for templates and posts.
Run tests, verify payloads, and deploy to production with monitoring.
The Blogs API gives programmatic access to blog data within GHL. You can read, create, update and organize blog posts, templates, categories, and authors. It enables automated content workflows across teams and channels. Use proper authentication, respect rate limits, and test changes in a staging environment before going live to ensure stable data flow.
No code is not mandatory. The Zapier App Connector lets you connect Mews to GHL without writing code for common flows. For advanced needs you can extend with custom endpoints or webhooks. The platform provides ready made triggers and actions for templates, posts and emails.
Key endpoints for blogging include POST /blogs/posts to publish, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure a unique slug. For email templates and campaigns use GET emails/builder and GET emails/schedule to coordinate timing and content.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug uniqueness before publishing. If a slug exists, adjust the title or slug and retry. Maintain version history and ensure consistent slug formats.
Sync frequency depends on webhook support and your Zapier plan. Webhooks enable near real time updates; scheduled triggers allow periodic checks. Plan your cadence to balance load and data freshness.
Supported authentication methods include API keys, OAuth tokens, and client credentials. Securely store credentials, rotate tokens, and follow the GHL guidelines for expiry and refresh. Use least privilege scopes for security.
Payload samples and best practices are documented in the GHL developer docs and the Mews integration guide. Start with templates and posts examples, then mock tests in a sandbox before live deployment. Keep logs of payloads for debugging.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
