No-code setup is possible with Zapier App Connector. You can choose triggers and actions to automate blog-to-email workflows without writing code. For more advanced scenarios, a developer can extend the workflow with custom steps. The combination of GHL endpoints and Zapier creates powerful automation with minimal effort.
You will typically use an API key or OAuth access to authorize, depending on your GHL configuration. In Zapier App Connector, select the appropriate authentication method and securely store the credentials. Always follow security best practices when handling credentials.
Essential endpoints for basic automation include GET /blogs/posts to fetch content, POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update posts, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. You may also integrate POST /emails/builder to craft email drafts.
Use Zapier’s test feature or a dry-run to verify triggers and actions. Check the connected accounts, run a test post, and review API responses for any errors. Adjust mappings as needed and re-test.
Yes. Schedule actions within Zapier or in GHL depending on your setup. Use the Emails Builder’s send-time options and Zapier’s Schedule tool to control when newsletters are sent.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan. If you hit limits, implement batching, retries, and exponential backoff in Zapier workflows to prevent failures.
API rate limits and quotas are documented in your GHL developer portal. Monitor usage and adjust workflow frequency to stay within limits.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
