Authenticate your GHL account to access the Blogs API endpoints. Use OAuth 2.0 with the scope emails/builder.readonly to enable secure read only access and data retrieval.
Authorize the Zapier App Connector to access GHL resources. Link accounts and approve data flow between Blogs API and Zapier for automated tasks.
Endpoints used include GET emails/builder, GET emails/builder.write, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, emails/schedule.readonly, GET emails/schedule, blogs/post.write, POST /blogs/posts, blogs/post-update.write, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, blogs/check-slug.readonly, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, blogs/category.readonly, GET /blogs/categories, blogs/author.readonly, GET /blogs/authors. These endpoints enable template management, scheduling, post creation and updates, slug checks, category and author access, and content routing for automated flows.
Trigger when a new email template is created or an existing one is updated via the Blogs API emails builder.
Actions include retrieving, creating, or updating templates using GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, and data operations with POST /emails/builder/data.
GET emails/builder or POST emails/builder
templateId, locationId, templateName, subject, body
Trigger when a new blog post is created in the Blogs API.
Actions include creating posts with POST /blogs/posts, updating with blogs/post-update.write or PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and publishing data.
POST /blogs/posts
postId, title, slug, content, authorId
Trigger when a blog post is published or updated to drive downstream emails.
Actions: fetch post data via GET /blogs/posts, verify slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, and route to email campaigns.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
postId, slug, title, publishDate, status
No code required: set up automations with clicks instead of custom programming.
Speed up campaigns by connecting content from blogs to emails without a developer.
Keep content and outreach in sync with centralized triggers and actions.
This glossary explains common elements such as endpoints, authentication, triggers, and actions that appear when connecting GHL with Blogs API via the Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to access a feature in the GHL API.
The process of proving identity and obtaining access to GHL resources via OAuth2 or API keys.
An event that starts an automated workflow in Zapier or GHL.
A task performed by a workflow as part of an automation.
Create a workflow that automatically builds an email template when a post is published.
Set up a cadence that sends a sequence of emails tied to a blog release.
Notify teams of edits or additions via automated alerts.
Connect your Blogs API in GHL and authorize the Zapier App Connector to access the data.
Map endpoints to Zapier fields and set up triggers and actions.
Create a simple workflow and run tests to verify results.
No coding is required. The integration uses no code workflows in Zapier to call GHL endpoints. Start with a simple trigger such as a new blog post and map fields to create an email or post. Expand with additional steps as needed.
For a basic connection you need read access to the emails builder and read access to blog posts. Common start endpoints include GET emails/builder and GET blogs/authors. You can add create endpoints such as POST /blogs/posts as your workflow grows.
Authentication typically uses OAuth2 tokens and API keys. Link both GHL and Zapier accounts and apply the required scopes. Keep credentials secure and rotate tokens regularly to protect data flows.
Yes you can schedule emails or email campaigns based on blog events using the scheduling endpoints. Use the blogs post endpoints to trigger scheduled emails or use the emails schedule API for read only data.
Endpoint documentation is available in the GHL API docs and within the Zapier app connectors. The page also provides summarized references. You can browse the endpoint names listed here for quick navigation.
Rate limits apply to both GHL and Zapier calls. Plan for bursts and use retries with exponential backoff. If you hit limits, stagger requests or upgrade your plan and consider batching changes.
Use the built in test mode in Zapier to simulate triggers and verify actions. Check logs, test data, and endpoint responses to identify issues and adjust mappings.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
