To authorize requests to the Blogs API, use your GHL developer credentials to obtain an access token and, if needed, a refresh token. Scope tokens to read or write blog data as required, store credentials securely, and rotate tokens regularly to maintain security.
Postscript connects to the GHL ecosystem using the same access tokens obtained for the Blogs API. In Postscript, create a new connection and authorize with the GHL token to enable reading posts and pushing updates to campaigns and automation workflows.

Yes. To connect Postscript to the Blogs API, you’ll use your GHL developer credentials to obtain an access token. This token authenticates requests from Postscript to read posts and push updates. Securely store your credentials and follow best practices for token rotation and least-privilege access. This setup ensures your automation remains secure while enabling seamless content flows. If you ever need to revoke access, you can rotate tokens from your GHL developer console and re-authorize Postscript with the new token. Regular reviews of permissions help keep your integration safe and compliant with your organization’s policies.
Yes. You can check slug existence before publishing by calling the Blogs API slug check endpoint. This helps prevent duplicate posts and ensures clean URLs for your audience. If a slug already exists, you can modify the title or slug and recheck quickly. Using the slug check as part of your publishing workflow reduces errors and improves the reliability of automated campaigns that reference post URLs.
For a basic setup, enable endpoints that read posts, create posts, update posts, check slugs, and fetch authors/categories as needed. Specifically, consider enabling: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories. This provides core content creation and enrichment capabilities for Postscript campaigns.
Webhooks provide near real-time updates by notifying Postscript when events occur in Blogs API, such as a new post or an updated slug. This reduces latency between publishing and outreach, ensuring newsletters and automations reflect the latest content. They also enable dynamic content blocks that adapt as posts evolve.
Data synchronized typically includes post content (title, body, excerpt), slug, author information, categories, tags, and publish dates. Depending on your configuration, Postscript can also receive metadata to tailor newsletters or automation flows, such as author bios or category-specific blocks.
Yes. You can connect Blogs API and Postscript with no-code tools and built-in connectors by configuring a GHL-connected workflow that uses webhooks and endpoint triggers. This setup lets you automate publishing, updates, and distribution without writing custom code, while still offering advanced customization through templates and triggers.
API rate limits vary by plan and endpoint. In general, monitor the allowed requests per minute or hour for endpoints you rely on (such as GET /blogs/posts, POST /blogs/posts, and webhooks). If you approach the limits, implement batching, caching for read-heavy operations, and staggered triggers to maintain reliability.
