To authenticate, generate an API key in GHL and enter it in Opinion Stage’s integration settings. Use the key to sign requests to the Blogs API endpoints. Keep your key secure and rotate it regularly. Next, authorize your Opinion Stage app to access the Blogs API resources as needed.
You’ll primarily use POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update them, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. You may also retrieve categories and authors with GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to classify content properly.
Yes. Use POST /blogs/posts to publish from Opinion Stage and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update existing posts. For scheduling, you can assemble a workflow that creates posts and sets a publish date within Blogs API.
Categories are retrieved via GET /blogs/categories and authors via GET /blogs/authors. You can map these IDs to your Opinion Stage posts and ensure consistent categorization across platforms.
Include metaDescription and keywords in the post payload and ensure a slug exists. You can use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to confirm slug availability before creating or updating posts.
If a slug already exists, update the existing post by using PUT /blogs/posts/:postId with a new slug or make changes to resolve conflicts.
If you encounter issues, verify API keys, endpoints, and permission scopes. Check the integration logs and endpoint responses, and ensure your app is registered and authorized in GHL.
