Obtain an API key or OAuth token from your GHL developer settings and securely store it in Perfit to authorize requests to the Blogs API.
Configure Perfit to use the GHL credentials, set allowed scopes, and test token validity before going live.

Key methods: POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: title, content, slug, authorId, categoryId, status
Trigger: Perfit schedules posts using GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to populate fields, then POST /blogs/posts.

Real-time insights into post performance.
This glossary defines terms used throughout this guide: GHL, Blogs API, Perfit, and related endpoint terms.
GHL is the API-enabled integration layer that connects apps and automates workflows via endpoints.
Application Programming Interface (API) enabling programmatic access to features and data.
The specific paths (and sometimes methods) you call to perform actions against the GHL platform.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a blog post in links and routing.
Automatically generate concise summaries for each post draft to speed up review.
Use endpoints to publish localized versions and switch language-specific content in Perfit.
Schedule campaigns that align with marketing calendars, automatically queuing posts.
Create or retrieve API keys from GHL and configure in Perfit with the correct scopes.
Map post fields (title, body, slug, author, category) to Perfit fields and set up triggers.
Run test posts, verify data flow, and enable scheduled publishing.
You do not need to code to get started. Perfit can consume GHL endpoints using API keys or OAuth tokens and map fields through the UI. This setup lets you trigger blog creation and updates without writing server code. For advanced automations, you can extend with custom fields and templates as needed. The no-code approach is designed for rapid onboarding and predictable publishing flows. If you need more control, you can still leverage minimal scripting or automation rules to handle edge cases while keeping the core workflow no-code.
Primary endpoints for publishing are POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug uniqueness. For content templates or drafts, you can also use POST /blogs/post-update.write and POST /blogs/posts for iterative publishing. Depending on your workflow, emails/builder endpoints may be used to compose and attach content before posting.
Yes. Perfit can schedule and automate publishing using endpoints like GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to populate metadata, followed by POST /blogs/posts to publish. You can configure schedule triggers within Perfit to release posts at specific times or align with campaigns, without manual steps.
Authentication is done via GHL API keys or OAuth tokens. Store these securely in Perfit and specify the allowed scopes (such as emails/builder.readonly, blogs/post.write, and blogs/author.readonly). Test token validity with a quick ping to a read endpoint before going live to ensure the integration is authorized to perform the required actions.
Yes. You can map fields between GHL and Perfit, such as title, body, slug, authorId, and categoryId. Use Perfit’s field-mapping interface to align content models, so posts created in GHL carry the correct metadata in Perfit and downstream systems.
You can pull authors and categories with endpoints like GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories. This data can populate dropdowns, author assignments, and category tags in Perfit workflows, ensuring consistency across platforms.
A no-code approach is available through Perfit’s visual workflow builder, where you can chain trigger events (like new post drafts or scheduled times) to actions (such as POST /blogs/posts). For most teams, this provides a complete, code-free integration path with powerful automation capabilities.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
