Grant Overloop permission to access your Blogs API data using the required scope (emails/builder.readonly). This ensures Overloop can read and orchestrate blog-related resources securely.
In this step, you authorize Overloop to connect to your GHL account and enable the Blogs API integration for the items you manage.
Common endpoints used in this integration include: – GET emails/builder – POST emails/builder – POST /emails/builder/data – DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId – GET emails/schedule – POST /blogs/posts – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – GET /blogs/categories – GET /blogs/authors – GET /blogs/posts
Trigger: When a new draft is created in Overloop, a blog post draft is created in the Blogs API.
Actions: publish the post, update its slug, and attach metadata.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, authorId
Trigger: Updates to a blog post in the Blogs API trigger an Overloop workflow.
Actions: update the Overloop record, notify collaborators.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, slug
Trigger: New or updated blog post in Blogs API triggers categorization in Overloop.
Actions: tag posts, assign categories, and map metadata.
GET /blogs/posts
postId, categories
No-code automation to streamline blog workflows between Blogs API and Overloop.
Drag-and-drop workflow builder for rapid setup.
Unified data mapping across posts, emails, and schedules with zero coding.
This glossary explains API terms and how they fit in the Overloop-Blogs API integration.
An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of endpoints that allow software systems to communicate and exchange data securely.
A URL-friendly identifier for a blog post used in routing and SEO.
A unit of content published on a blog, which can be created, updated, and published via the API.
A specific URL in an API that performs a defined function or returns data.
Create a daily queue that publishes approved drafts to your blog with auto-scheduling.
Automatically repurpose blog content into newsletters or social posts using Overloop workflows.
Automatically refresh metadata and SEO fields when posts are updated.
Begin by connecting your GHL account and granting access to the Blogs API within Overloop.
Select the endpoints you’ll use and confirm the required read-only or write permissions.
Run a test flow, verify data mapping, then enable automation.
No coding is required to get started. The Overloop visual workflow builder lets you map fields between Blogs API and Overloop without writing code. You can create triggers, actions, and conditions using a drag-and-drop interface. For more advanced needs, you can still customize mappings and steps using the built-in configuration options.
For basic blog posting, you’ll typically use the endpoints to create posts (POST /blogs/posts) and to verify slug availability (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists). You can then map fields like title, content, and author in Overloop. Optional endpoints for scheduling or updating posts can further enhance your workflow.
Slug existence checks help ensure unique, SEO-friendly URLs. If a slug already exists, you can automatically generate a new slug or adjust the title to create a unique slug. This check prevents conflicts and preserves your publishing cadence.
Yes. Scheduling is supported via the Blogs API scheduling endpoints. In Overloop, you can configure time-based triggers to publish posts at your chosen times. This enables consistent content release without manual intervention.
Categories and authors are available via GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors. You can map these fields in Overloop to assign posts to the correct category and author. This ensures your content metadata remains organized and searchable.
If the API data structure changes, update your Overloop mappings to reflect new field names or endpoints. Our templates are designed to adapt quickly, and you can re-map fields with a few clicks. Consult the API reference in Overloop for any required adjustments.
API logs can be accessed from your Overloop dashboard under the integration logs section. Enable verbose logging if you need more detail for debugging. This helps you troubleshoot failed calls and verify data flows between Overloop and Blogs API.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
