The Blogs API and Zapier App Connector integration lets you automate blog tasks without leaving your workflow. You can trigger actions based on new posts edits or schedule events. This setup uses OAuth 2.0 credentials aligned to your GHL scope and the Zapier app permissions. Start by authenticating and then connect the needed endpoints for your blog workflow.
Available endpoints include emails builder for templates and data upload as well as blogs posts categories and authors endpoints. Use the endpoints that match your workflow such as GET blogs/categories for taxonomy or POST blogs/posts for publishing. Test each call in the Zapier test environment before going live.
Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 with your GHL credentials and the Zapier app stores your tokens securely. Ensure you grant the scope needed for your actions such as emails builder and blogs posts. If your organization uses API keys you can also configure them in the Zapier app settings.
Yes. You can create new blog posts directly from a Zap by mapping your title content and metadata to the blogs posts endpoint. Use a trigger like new post in a feed and an action to create a post in GHL.
No heavy coding is required. The Zapier app provides a no code interface to connect endpoints configure fields and translate data between Apps.
Required permissions depend on your workflow. At minimum you will need read access to blogs and write access to posts and templates depending on your use case. Ensure your OAuth scope includes emails and blogs.
API rate limits vary by endpoint. Refer to the Blogs API docs for current quotas and best practices such as batching requests and pacing calls to avoid throttling.
