Use secure credentials (API keys or OAuth) to authorize Rankr with the Blogs API inside GHL. Store tokens safely and rotate keys regularly.
Rankr connects to GHL using an API key or OAuth token. Configure credentials in Rankr’s integration settings to enable safe data exchange.
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
Trigger when a new blog post is created in Rankr and push to GHL to initiate an email workflow.
Actions: create post via POST /blogs/posts, then notify emails/builder to start campaigns.
POST /blogs/posts
postId, title, slug, authorId, categoryId, publishedDate, content, tags
Trigger when a Rankr post is updated; sync changes to the corresponding GHL blog post.
Actions: update via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, refresh slug/category mappings, propagate edits to emails.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, slug, content, categoryId, tags, publishedDate
Trigger when author or category data changes in Rankr; keep GHL in sync via /blogs/authors and /blogs/categories.
Actions: fetch author details and category mappings, update Rankr, and align campaigns.
GET /blogs/authors
authorId, name, email; categoryId, name
Launch campaigns quickly with no code thanks to built-in automations, webhooks, and triggers.
Reuse blog content across emails and landing pages without custom development.
Unified analytics let you track posts, emails, and campaigns from one dashboard.
Key elements and processes you’ll use to connect and automate between GHL and Rankr for the Blogs API.
An application programming interface that lets Rankr access the Blogs API within GHL securely.
A specific URL path in GHL that performs an action (for example, GET /blogs/authors).
The process of verifying identity to authorize Rankr with GHL.
A real-time notification mechanism from GHL to Rankr when events occur.
Trigger new posts to automatically create blog entries in GHL and start email workflows in Rankr.
Update posts in Rankr and push edits to GHL so subscribers receive timely revisions.
Map authors to campaigns and generate category-based playlists in emails based on Rankr data.
Obtain API keys or OAuth tokens from the Blogs API and add them to Rankr’s integration settings.
Connect endpoints like POST /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/authors to your workflows in Rankr and GHL.
Run end-to-end tests to ensure posts publish correctly and emails trigger as expected before going live.
Authentication can be done via API key or OAuth token. In GHL, create a project, generate credentials, then paste into Rankr’s integration settings. Keep keys secure and rotate them regularly. The process ensures only approved Rankr actions access the Blogs API in GHL. For ongoing security, apply least-privilege scopes and monitor token usage. Use separate keys for development and production.
For syncing posts to emails, focus on endpoints that create and read posts, authors, and categories (POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists). Use blogs/post-update.write and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to reflect edits. This combination keeps content and audience data aligned across channels.
Yes. Rankr can publish blog posts by sending POST /blogs/posts to GHL and then trigger email workflows through the emails builder. Ensure the payload includes a title, slug, content, and author/category metadata. Validate success responses before proceeding with downstream campaigns.
Generally no coding is required thanks to built-in connectors, webhooks, and automation rules. You can map fields, configure triggers, and set up end-to-end flows using Rankr’s UI. Complex scenarios may use lightweight logic or custom payloads, but most use cases are no-code.
To update a post after publishing, modify the post in Rankr and trigger PUT /blogs/posts/:postId in GHL. You can update the title, slug, content, and category mappings. Ensure the updated data propagates to any associated email campaigns to avoid outdated information being sent.
Authors and categories are synced by pulling data from GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories and mapping them to Rankr. Maintain consistent IDs and update mappings when Rankr changes author or category data, so campaigns reflect current structures.
If authentication or endpoint errors occur, revalidate credentials and scopes, verify endpoint permissions, and check request paths and methods. Review logs, test with minimal payloads, and confirm that the correct API version and base URL are being used.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
