Use a secure API key with scope emails/builder.readonly to authorize requests from Sarbacane. Store credentials safely, rotate keys regularly, and follow least-privilege access.
Authenticate Sarbacane to the Blogs API with your API credentials or OAuth token so your campaigns can pull blog data and publish emails without manual steps.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, POST /emails/builder/data, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors. Use POST /blogs/posts to publish new content, and GET /emails/builder to fetch templates.
When a new blog post is created in Blogs API (POST /blogs/posts), automatically initialize an email campaign in Sarbacane to promote the post.
Actions: map post title, excerpt, and cover image to a Sarbacane template; queue the campaign for delivery; track opens and clicks in your dashboards.
POST /blogs/posts
postId, title, slug, excerpt, coverImage, author, publishedDate
On post updates (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId), sync changes to the corresponding Sarbacane email draft or campaign.
Actions: refresh subject line, body content, and CTAs; re-send or update analytics as needed.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, slug, content, updatedDate
Before publishing, verify slug availability with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and prepare a Sarbacane draft.
Actions: create or update a draft, map metadata, and set up routing to the right category and author fields.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug, postId, title
Automate blog-to-email workflows with point-and-click configuration—no coding required.

This glossary explains core concepts and processes used to connect GHL Blogs API with Sarbacane, including data mapping, authentication, and workflow triggers.
The person who writes a blog post. Mapped to author fields in Sarbacane campaigns for attribution.
A URL-friendly version of the post title used to build links and routing for content.
A single blog entry with content, metadata, and publication date.
A reusable email layout in Sarbacane used to present blog content with dynamic fields.
Automatically generate a Sarbacane email from a new blog post with dynamic fields for title, excerpt, and cover image.
Trigger a welcome email series when a new author posts and feature author bios.
Send a weekly digest email in Sarbacane containing the latest posts with summaries.
Obtain your Blogs API key and ensure the scope includes emails/builder.readonly.
Define how blog fields map to Sarbacane template fields (title, excerpt, author, date).
Run tests, verify delivery, and monitor analytics in Sarbacane and your GHL dashboards.
No coding is required. The Sarbacane and GHL interfaces provide point-and-click options to connect the Blogs API. You can map fields and triggers without writing custom scripts. If you prefer, you can also leverage Zapier App Connector for quick automation. This keeps setup fast and approachable for marketers. Then you can test a sample workflow to confirm delivery.
Essential endpoints include POST /blogs/posts to publish content, GET emails/builder to fetch templates, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs. Mapping these fields ensures title, excerpt, author, and date flow into Sarbacane campaigns. Add GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to enrich templates with metadata.
Yes. Use sandbox or test data to validate the workflow before going live. Verify that new posts trigger emails, that updates propagate correctly, and that analytics reflect the expected results. Use sample posts and drafts to confirm the end-to-end path works as designed.
Create a field mapping from blog data (title, excerpt, author, date) to the corresponding placeholders in your Sarbacane email template. Use dynamic content blocks and productized templates to ensure consistency across posts. Review slug, category, and image fields for accurate rendering.
Authenticate securely using API keys with scoped access and rotate keys on a schedule. Store tokens in a secure vault and limit token lifetime. Use HTTPS for all calls and monitor access logs to detect unusual activity.
Slug conflicts can block publishing. Check slug existence with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before posting. If a conflict is detected, regenerate a slug or add a numeric suffix. Maintain a simple naming convention to prevent repeats.
Track delivery, opens, and click-through rates from Sarbacane. Use the API to pull engagement metrics back into GHL dashboards and adjust scheduling, templates, and subject lines based on performance.
