Learn how to securely authorize the Blogs API from your Zapier workspace using API tokens or OAuth, enabling safe calls to endpoints like blogs/posts and blogs/categories.
Configure credentials in Zapier to grant the app access to the Blogs API, then test a connection to confirm you can read and write data.
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 email draft is saved in emails/builder, extract the content and generate a new blog post in blogs/posts.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts to publish, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure slug uniqueness.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, authorId, categoryId
Trigger: changes in blogs/categories or new posts in blogs/posts to push scheduled publications.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/categories for category context.
POST /blogs/posts
title, excerpt, slug, categoryId, authorId
Trigger: external data feed delivers new content, prompting an update via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, status
Build automations fast with drag-and-drop workflows, no coding required.
Keep blog content aligned with email campaigns and social posts across channels.
Leverage prebuilt triggers and actions to cut deployment time dramatically.
Key elements include endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, data mapping, and error handling; understanding these helps you design robust automations.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that allows software to communicate with Blogs API.
A URL path that exposes a specific operation in the GHL Blogs API.
A URL-friendly string derived from a post title used in the blog URL.
An authorization framework that enables secure access to Blogs API without sharing credentials.
Aggregate weekly email content into a blog post using blogs/posts, then schedule publication with emails/schedule.
Convert newsletters into blog posts using templates and the Blogs API to maintain consistency.
Create drafts from editor notes and push to blog posts for quick publishing cycles.
Create API credentials in Blogs API and configure OAuth or API tokens in Zapier to establish a secure connection.
Map the available endpoints to your workflow triggers and actions, and define the data fields to pass between Apps.
Run test automations, verify field mappings, and deploy to production with monitoring enabled.
The Blogs API lets you create, read, update, and manage blog posts, categories, and authors from Zapier App Connector. Use endpoints like POST /blogs/posts to publish new posts and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique URLs. This enables automated content workflows without touching code. You can connect your editorial calendar, newsletter content, and social publishing through a single no-code integration.
No traditional coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides drag-and-drop triggers and actions that map directly to the Blogs API endpoints. You configure authentication once, then build workflows using simple steps. If you need advanced logic, you can add multi-step paths or conditional filters within Zapier.
Key blogging endpoints include: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and blogs/post.write. You can also check slug availability before publishing and update existing posts as needed. This set covers creation, retrieval, update, and validation for blog content.
Authenticate by configuring credentials in Zapier to match the Blogs API’s requirements (OAuth or API tokens). Test the connection to ensure read/write access to endpoints like /blogs/posts and /blogs/categories. Store credentials securely and rotate them per your security policy.
Yes. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update an existing post with new content or status. You can adjust the title, body, or slug as needed, and then publish or schedule updates. This allows ongoing content maintenance without recreating posts.
Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify slug uniqueness before publishing. If the slug exists, you can modify the title to generate a unique slug, then proceed with POST /blogs/posts or PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. This helps prevent URL conflicts in your blog.
