To access content from Blogs API, authorize via OAuth 2.0 and grant the scopes your workflow requires (for example emails/builder.readonly). The Zapier app will guide you through the connection and tokens are refreshed automatically.
RSS by Zapier uses your connected Blogs API credentials to perform read/write actions according to the scopes you grant. Expect a straightforward authorization flow with an option to re‑authenticate if needed.
– 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: A new blog post is published in Blogs API
Actions: Create an RSS feed item and optionally notify teams.
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: title, content, slug
Trigger: Blog post is updated in Blogs API
Actions: Update the post via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId and refresh the feed
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: postId, title, content
Trigger: Blog post is deleted
Actions: Delete or archive post via DELETE /blogs/posts/:postId
DELETE /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: postId

Easily map data fields between the Blogs API and RSS by Zapier
This glossary explains core terms and the steps to plan and execute the GHL to APPNAME integration.
Definition: A specific URL path exposed by an API that performs a defined operation.
Definition: The process of validating access permissions and issuing tokens to allow API use.
Definition: A unique string used in URLs to reference a resource, such as a post slug.
Definition: A tool or feature that schedules when an action runs or content is published.
Description: When a new post is added to Blogs API, publish to an RSS feed via RSS by Zapier.
Description: When a post is updated in Blogs API, refresh the RSS feed contents.
Description: Automatically archive or remove posts in the feed when they are deleted.
Connect your Blogs API account in RSS by Zapier using OAuth or API keys.
Choose New Post trigger and map fields.
Map post fields to RSS feed items and set actions like create, update, or delete.
GHL endpoints typically support secure authentication via OAuth 2.0 and, when applicable, API keys. For this integration, you’ll authorize the Blogs API with a scope such as emails/builder.readonly to allow read operations needed to pull content. The Zapier app handles token refreshing automatically. After connection, you can re-authenticate if access is revoked or expired.\n\nOnce connected, you can manage accounts, run tests, and verify access to the required resources within the Zapier UI.
To publish new content, use POST /blogs/posts (endpoint 9). You can also check slug availability with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before creating a post. For simple publishing, map your post title and content to the corresponding fields in the RSS item.\n\nIf you’re updating content, you’ll typically use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to modify an existing post or POST /blogs/posts to create new ones, depending on your workflow.
Yes. Updating a post uses PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and deleting a post uses DELETE /blogs/posts/:postId. Map the postId in Zapier when you perform the action.\n\nBe sure to include essential fields (title, content, slug) to maintain consistency across your feed and avoid duplicate content.
Absolutely. This is a no-code integration: you connect apps, configure triggers, and map fields using Zapier’s visual editor. No custom code is required to set up basic publish, update, or delete workflows.\n\nIf you need advanced logic, you can combine multiple steps, filters, and tests within Zapier to tailor the flow to your needs.
Zapier automatically retries failed steps according to its built-in retry policies. You can adjust retry rules for specific steps in the Zap editor. If an endpoint returns an error, review the mapped fields and required parameters, then re-run the step after correcting any issues.\n\nFor persistent problems, re-authenticate the connection or test with a fresh sample to isolate the failure.
Scopes depend on the endpoints you call. For reading content, emails/builder.readonly may be sufficient, but for creating or updating posts you’ll need write permissions such as blogs/post.write or related endpoints. Always grant the minimal required scopes for your workflow and adjust as needed.\n\nRefer to your API provider’s documentation for the exact scope values and best practices.
Use Zapier’s “Test this step” feature to pull a sample post and verify field mappings. Check the task history and run a full test Zap to confirm that create, update, and delete actions work as intended.\n\nIf mappings fail, review the mapping rule and ensure the source data contains the expected fields with correct data types.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
