To securely access the Blogs API from Nimble, use your Blogs API credentials and include them in the Authorization header for each request. Keep tokens secure and respect the scope: emails/builder.readonly.
Nimble connects to the Blogs API via OAuth 2.0. During setup you’ll authorize Nimble to access your GHL account with the requested scopes. Limit permissions to what’s necessary to keep your data secure.

This glossary defines the API terms, endpoints, triggers, and data fields used in the Nimble–Blogs API integration.
An application programming interface that lets different software systems communicate and share data securely.
A specific URL path used to access a resource or perform an action in an API.
A standard authorization framework that enables apps to obtain limited access to user accounts without sharing credentials.
A URL-friendly version of a title used to create readable, search-friendly links.
Generate blog topics and outlines automatically from Nimble contact data and recent activity, then push drafts to the Blogs API for publishing.
Turn campaign assets and landing page content in Nimble into ready-to-edit blog drafts via POST /blogs/posts.
Publish to your blog and automatically schedule repurposed versions to email campaigns and social channels.
Generate your Blogs API key and secure Nimble app credentials, then store them in your vault.
Define the endpoints you’ll use (e.g., POST /blogs/posts) and set the necessary scopes (emails/builder.readonly).
Test workflows in a sandbox, monitor logs, and adjust field mappings before enabling live sync.
You’ll authenticate using API credentials for the Blogs API and pair them with Nimble. Include your API key or OAuth token in the request headers for each call. Use the provided scope (emails/builder.readonly) to limit access and protect sensitive data. In Nimble, store credentials securely and rotate them regularly to reduce risk. Regular auditing of permissions is recommended to maintain security.
Common endpoints include GET emails/builder to fetch templates, POST /emails/builder/data to push template data, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify blog slug availability. For publishing, POST /blogs/posts creates a new post, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId updates it, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists checks slug readiness. These endpoints cover the core content, emails, and blog publishing flows.
Use a secure vault or secret manager for API keys and tokens, enforce least privilege access, and rotate credentials on a schedule. In a no-code environment, prefer OAuth where available and minimize embedding credentials in the app. Always use HTTPS to protect data in transit.
Yes. By using the blogs/post-update.write and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId endpoints, you can schedule and update posts. Combine with a scheduling endpoint to automate publish dates and times, ensuring consistency across campaigns and channels.
Required fields typically include title, content, slug, authorId, and category. Optional fields may include publishedDate, images, and metadata. Validate slug uniqueness with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing.
You can automate content creation, publishing, and email updates without writing code. Centralize control of templates and posts, accelerate testing, and quickly adjust workflows as needs evolve. The setup is reusable across multiple Nimble campaigns and blog projects.
Start with the core blog endpoints (POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists) and the email builder endpoints (GET/POST emails/builder). Then extend with slug and category checks (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories) as your workflows expand.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
