Authenticate with your Blogs API credentials and ensure the correct access scopes (for example, emails/builder.readonly) are granted to enable the requested endpoints.
Connect Rentman using a secure API token or OAuth flow and assign permissions for blog-related endpoints such as posts, authors, categories, and templates.

Faster content workflows with automated syncing between email templates and blog posts.
No-code integration reduces manual data entry and errors.
Centralized planning across emails and blogs for consistent campaigns.
Common elements, processes, and data mappings used in this integration guide.
A specific URL path and HTTP method that performs a defined action in an API (for example, GET /blogs/authors).
A URL-friendly version of a post title used to build readable, SEO-friendly URLs.
Credentials and methods used to securely access APIs, such as API keys or OAuth tokens, with scopes.
A callback URL that receives real-time updates from an API when an event occurs.
Create a workflow that publishes blog post summaries to Rentman campaigns to boost engagement and cross-promote content.
Synchronize publish dates and send times so blog posts align with email campaigns.
Map authors to Rentman team members to attribute content and streamline approvals.
Generate and securely store API keys for GHL and configure required scopes for emails and blogs endpoints.
Set up the endpoints you’ll use (e.g., /blogs/posts, /blogs/authors, /blogs/categories) in your workflow tool.
Run tests, verify data flow, and enable automated syncing between Blogs API and Rentman.
No heavy coding is required thanks to the no-code features of the integration. You can use Zapier or similar connectors to map endpoints between Blogs API and Rentman. In many cases, a few workflow steps are enough to establish a baseline connection. For more complex needs, small scripts or middleware can handle custom transformations. In short, you can start without writing code and scale as needed.
Essential endpoints for initial setup include creating and updating blog posts (POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId), retrieving authors and categories (GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories), and slug checks (GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists). For content templates used in emails, keep an eye on GET/POST for email templates (GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder) and the schedule endpoints (GET /emails/schedule).
API rate limits can affect how often data is synced. Plan for backoff strategies and retries, especially for bulk operations like post imports. Use batch sizes that fit within quotas and implement idempotent updates to avoid duplicate content. Monitor quota usage in your dashboard and stagger heavy syncs to off-peak times when possible.
Yes. You can map authors to Rentman team members and categories to Rentman content groups. Use the authors and categories endpoints to fetch the latest mappings and store corresponding IDs in Rentman whenever a new post is created or updated. Regularly synchronize mappings to avoid drift between systems.
Check slug existence by calling GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing. If the slug already exists, adjust by appending a unique suffix or using a different title variant. This prevents URL conflicts and ensures SEO-friendly URLs for your posts.
Yes. Authentication is required for each call to secure your data. Use API keys or OAuth tokens with the appropriate scopes. Rotate credentials regularly and store them securely in your integration tool or secret store. Implement token refresh flows where supported.
When a template or post is updated, the integration should push the changes to the connected system (Rentman or Blogs API) and reflect the new content, status, or scheduling. Depending on your setup, you can trigger automatic re-publish or re-sync actions to keep both sides in sync and avoid stale content.
