Connecting Blogs API with Rankr: a step-by-step guide

This guide covers authentication, endpoint usage, and practical workflows to connect Blogs API (GHL) with Rankr to manage content, emails, and posts without writing code.

Authentication for Blogs API

Authenticate requests between GHL’s Blogs API and Rankr using your API credentials. The scope includes emails/builder.readonly to read email templates and builder data, ensuring secure access for content workflows.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to code to connect Rankr with Blogs API?

No-code or low-code integrations are supported. Rankr provides visual mapping and trigger-based workflows that connect Blogs API endpoints to email templates. You can configure templates, schedules, and actions without writing code. If needed, you can extend with custom webhooks for advanced use cases. Take advantage of pre-built templates and checklists to accelerate setup.

Key endpoints for publishing typically include GET /blogs/posts to fetch content, POST /blogs/posts to create, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update. For email workflows, use GET emails/builder to pull templates and POST /emails/builder/data to populate content. These form the core of automated publishing and notification flows.

Yes. Use Preview mode or draft drafts in Rankr to review generated emails. You can also run test sends to a staging audience to confirm formatting, links, and personalization before live delivery.

Use OAuth 2.0 or integration tokens, store credentials securely, and limit scope to what is needed (e.g., emails/builder.readonly). Regularly rotate tokens and monitor access logs for unusual activity.

If a slug exists, use the slugExists endpoint to detect conflicts and prompt for a slug revision. Implement automatic fallback rules or a slug-generation strategy to avoid collisions.

Utilize a sandbox or staging environment in Rankr to simulate the full flow. Validate all mappings and triggers, then gradually promote to production once the data aligns with expectations.

Integration status and logs appear in Rankr’s dashboard. You can review connection health, recent runs, error messages, and retry failed tasks from the monitoring panel.
