Frequently asked questions

What authentication methods are supported to connect RealWork with the Blogs API?

You can use OAuth2 or API key based authentication to securely connect RealWork with the Blogs API. Always follow the principle of least privilege and only request the scopes you need. Keep credentials private and rotate keys regularly. In production you may implement IP allowlists and error handling to gracefully manage failures.

Key endpoints for publishing and updating posts include POST /blogs/posts to create; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs; GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors for taxonomy and attribution.

Slug existence checks prevent duplicates. Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists with the slug to confirm availability before creating or updating a post. If the slug exists you can modify it or choose a different title.

Yes. You can map RealWork categories to GHL blog categories and map RealWork authors to GHL authors. This keeps taxonomy aligned and ensures posts show under the correct author and category in your GHL environment.

No code integration accelerates setup allowing teams to automate content workflows without custom development. It reduces handoffs and speeds publishing while maintaining accuracy across tools.

Use a sandbox or test project to run draft posts verify slug validity and check category and author mappings. Validate error responses and retry logic before going live.

Consult the API rate limits in the GHL documentation and implement exponential backoff and proper error handling. Use try catch blocks and logging to diagnose issues such as 429 rate limit or 401 unauthorized errors.
