Authenticate with GHL using OAuth 2.0 tokens scoped to emails/builder.readonly. Retrieve client credentials from your GHL developer console, securely store tokens, and grant the necessary scopes to enable API calls such as GET emails/builder and POST blogs/posts.
Pointerpro authentication uses your Zapier app credentials to securely access the GHL Blogs API. Provide the OAuth client ID and secret or API key in your Zapier app, and ensure the appropriate scopes are granted for read/write operations.
GET emails/builder; GET emails/builder (write); POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; GET emails/schedule.readonly; GET emails/schedule; POST blogs/posts; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/categories; GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/check-slug.readonly; GET blogs/post.write; GET blogs/post-update.write
Trigger: New blog post created in GHL
Actions: Create a corresponding post in Pointerpro and map title, content, slug, and author
POST /blogs/posts
title, slug, content, authorId, categoryId
Trigger: Blog post updated in GHL
Actions: Update the Pointerpro post; sync title, slug, content, and status
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, slug, content, status
Trigger: Check slug availability or fetch categories
Actions: Validate slug with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; fetch categories with GET /blogs/categories; map to Pointerpro fields
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; GET /blogs/categories
slug, categoryId
Zero‑code setup lets you connect Blogs API to Pointerpro without writing a line of code.
Automate blog publishing and email workflows across systems with visual workflow builders.
Easily maintain mappings and endpoints from a single place, reducing maintenance overhead.
This section explains the core elements: endpoints, triggers, actions, and data mappings that drive the integration workflow between GHL’s Blogs API and Pointerpro.
A specific URL paired with an HTTP method that performs a defined action in an API.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a post in a blog.
A standard protocol for authorizing access to resources via tokens.
A callback URL endpoint that delivers real-time data from an API.
Automatically publish new email drafts as blog posts in Blogs API when content is approved in Pointerpro.
Sync blog post updates to Pointerpro email campaigns to keep newsletters current.
Use engagement data to suggest blog edits and re-share via Pointerpro.
Create a Zapier app, obtain GHL client credentials for the Blogs API, and grant the scope emails/builder.readonly.
Connect the endpoints listed above and map fields like title, content, slug, and author between GHL and Pointerpro.
Run tests for create, update, and slug checks; verify data sync; deploy to live.
The Blogs API endpoints used in this integration include GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, POST /blogs/posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to create and update content. You can also leverage related endpoints like GET emails/builder and POST /blogs/posts for broader automation between email building and blogging. Use Zapier to test each endpoint with sample data during setup. Make sure the authentication tokens and scopes (including emails/builder.readonly) are granted to your app so requests succeed.
Authentication relies on OAuth 2.0 tokens issued by GHL for the Blogs API. Pointerpro obtains and refreshes tokens via your Zapier app credentials, then uses those tokens to call endpoints like POST /blogs/posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Ensure the scope includes the necessary permissions (such as emails/builder.readonly and blog write scopes) and securely store the tokens in your Zapier app configuration.
Yes. You can create blog posts in Pointerpro that are published to GHL via POST /blogs/posts, and you can update existing posts with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Map fields like title, slug, content, and author between systems to keep posts in sync. Be mindful of slug collisions by checking availability first with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before creating or updating posts.
To test in Zapier, create a test connection, run sample actions for create, update, and slug checks, and inspect responses to confirm correct mappings. Use test data that mirrors real content (title, slug, content, author) and verify the results appear in both Pointerpro and GHL. Enable verbose logging and review any error messages to adjust payloads or scopes as needed.
GHL API documentation is available in your developer portal, and the endpoint references above mirror the documented routes (blogs and emails related). You can also refer to the Blogs API section in the Pointerpro integration docs for field mappings and example payloads. If you need extra detail, consult the GHL API reference and the pointerpro no‑code integration guides to align your mappings and workflows.
