Begin by obtaining your Blog APIs credentials and securely adding them to the GHL connection settings via the Zapier App Connector. This ensures all requests are authorized and data remains secure.
In Zapier, connect your Blogs API account by providing required credentials and selecting the scopes needed to read and write blog content and emails for RentCheck automation.
Core endpoints include: – GET emails/builder – GET emails/builder.write – POST emails/builder – POST /emails/builder/data – DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId – emails/schedule.readonly – GET emails/schedule – blogs/post.write – POST /blogs/posts – blogs/post-update.write – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId – blogs/check-slug.readonly – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – blogs/category.readonly – GET /blogs/categories – blogs/author.readonly – GET /blogs/authors
Trigger when a new blog post is created in Blogs API.
Actions: create a new post, fetch post data, and push to RentCheck channels (email, social, or site).
POST /blogs/posts
PostId, Title, Slug, Content, Status
Trigger or action to update an existing blog post in Blogs API.
Actions: update post data, adjust slug, and propagate changes to RentCheck
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId

This glossary covers endpoints, triggers, actions, and key fields used in the Blogs API and Zapier App Connector integration.
A defined interface that allows different software applications to communicate and exchange data securely.
A URL-friendly version of a post title used to build readable and SEO-friendly links.
A blog entry created in Blogs API that can be published, updated, or deleted.
A real-time HTTP callback that sends data to another app when a defined event occurs.
Set up a trigger when a new blog post is created in Blogs API and automatically push notifications or posts to newsletters, social channels, or the RentCheck site.
When you update a post, automatically synchronize changes to RentCheck and connected distribution channels to keep content consistent.
Notify teams when authors are added or changed, and route posts by category to targeted campaigns.
In Zapier, choose Blogs API and create a new connection using yourBlogs API credentials.
Select triggers like New Blog Post and actions like Create Post to automate RentCheck workflows.
Run tests, verify data flow, and enable your automation across channels.
No coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual setup to connect Blogs API and configure triggers and actions. Simply authorize the connection and map fields between Blogs API and RentCheck workflows. If you need more complex logic, you can combine multiple steps and conditional paths without writing code. As you test the workflow, you can tweak trigger settings, data mapping, and error handling to ensure reliable automation.
For a basic RentCheck workflow, you typically need access to endpoints that create and retrieve posts (POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists), update posts (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId), and fetch authors and categories (GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories). If you also publish emails tied to posts, include endpoints like POST /emails/builder and GET emails/builder. You can start with a minimal set and expand as your automation needs grow.
Yes. Use the slug existence endpoint GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify whether a slug is already in use before creating or updating a post. This helps avoid duplicate URLs and maintain clean SEO structure. If the slug exists, you can programmatically modify the slug or handle conflicts within your Zapier workflow.
The connection uses standard RESTful endpoints with token-based authentication provided by Blogs API and Zapier App Connector. Scopes control read/write permissions, and you should restrict access to only the necessary data. Regularly rotate API keys and review connected apps in your account for security. For added security, enable IP restrictions and monitor activity dashboards within Blogs API and Zapier.
Yes. You can connect multiple GHL accounts by creating separate connections for each account in Zapier App Connector. Each connection stores its own credentials and scope settings, keeping data isolated per GHL workspace. Switching between accounts is as simple as selecting the appropriate connection in your Zapier workflow configuration.
Commonly required scopes include read and write access to blogs and emails, plus the ability to read categories and authors. In the Blogs API, these permissions enable triggers for new posts, post updates, and retrieval of authors/categories. Always align scopes with the minimum necessary permissions to follow best security practices.
