Start by generating a set of API credentials in your GHL dashboard and sharing them with Poplar. This enables secure access to emails and blogs endpoints.
During setup, grant Poplar the required scopes (for example, emails/builder.readonly and blogs/post.write) to enable reading drafts and publishing posts.
Common endpoints include: GET emails/builder, GET blogs/posts, POST blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors.
Trigger: when a new draft is ready in Poplar, create a post in GHL and schedule its promotion.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /emails/builder for newsletter promos
Example methods: POST /blogs/posts to publish, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update content
Key fields: title, content, slug, categoryId, authorId, status
Trigger: when a post is published in Poplar, mirror it to GHL as a blog post and refresh SEO fields

Example methods: POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors

Use the endpoints to pull drafts, push posts, and manage categories and authors without custom code.
No strictly speaking you can do a lot with a no-code tool like Poplar, but some basic understanding of API concepts helps. Poplar provides guided authentication and prebuilt action blocks for common tasks, so you can connect and automate quickly without writing server code.
Common posting endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to create a post, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. You may also publish to emails/builder or schedule posts using emails/schedule endpoints.
Authentication typically uses API keys or OAuth tokens. In Poplar you’ll supply the clientId/secret or token, then validate scopes like emails/builder.readonly and blogs/post.write. Test credentials in a sandbox environment before going live.
Yes. Poplar can schedule posts by using the emails/schedule endpoints in conjunction with blogs/post endpoints. Create a workflow that composes the post, saves it to drafts, then schedules its publication.
SEO metadata is built around title, slug, meta description, and keywords. The integration supports setting these fields during post creation and updates, ensuring your content remains optimized as it moves from Poplar to GHL.
Test the integration in a sandbox or staging environment. Validate each endpoint works as expected, verify slug existence, and monitor logs for errors before going live.
