To securely call the Blogs API, obtain a GHL API key and assign the scope emails/builder.readonly. Include the key with each request and rotate credentials regularly.
Use the API tokens or OAuth credentials provided by Scarlett Network to authorize calls from GHL, ensuring scopes align with intended actions.

Test scenarios and confirm data flows.
You don’t need to be a developer to start. The endpoints are designed for no-code or low-code workflows in a visual builder. Start with read-only endpoints to explore data, then progressively enable write endpoints as you gain confidence. Use sandbox/test data when possible and monitor responses for proper error handling. If you are comfortable, you can add simple automation rules to trigger actions when specific blog events occur.
Creating a blog post typically requires POST /blogs/posts (and the related check-slug or slug-exists endpoints to ensure unique slugs). You may also use GET endpoints to retrieve categories and authors to populate fields. When updating, use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId or blogs/post-update.write depending on your flow. Validate the slug before creation to avoid conflicts.
Authentication uses a GHL API key with the proper scope (emails/builder.readonly for read actions). Pass the key in the authorization header for each request. Scarlett Network credentials should be kept secure and rotation policies followed. If you use OAuth, ensure the token is scoped to the endpoints you call.
Yes. You can schedule posts for future publication and distribution. Use the blogs/posts endpoint with a scheduledTime, or use dedicated scheduling actions if your workflow supports them. This lets you align content drops with campaigns managed in Scarlett Network.
Rate limits vary by endpoint and plan. Typical constraints apply to read endpoints with higher tolerance for reads. Write and publish endpoints may have stricter limits. Check the API reference in your developer dashboard for exact limits and best practices to avoid throttling.
Common post data includes title, slug, content, excerpt, authorId, categoryId, tags, and status. You can fetch authors and categories to map to posts and enrich SEO metadata. Use the endpoints that return author and category data to populate fields consistently.
Implement retries with exponential backoff, log error codes, and surface actionable messages. For transient errors, retry after a short delay. For validation errors, correct the input data and retry. Always test failure scenarios in a staging environment before going live.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
