To connect, use an API key with the scope emails/builder.readonly and configure the Zapier App Connector OAuth flow to securely pass credentials.
Connect Zapier App Connector to GHL by selecting the Blogs API as your service and granting the connector permission to read and write as defined by the scope in your settings.
GET emails/builder; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; emails/schedule.readonly; GET emails/schedule; blogs/post.write; POST /blogs/posts; POST /blogs/post-update.write; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; blogs/category.readonly; GET /blogs/categories; blogs/author.readonly; GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: when a new blog post is created in Blogs API (POST /blogs/posts) or detected in the feed (GET /blogs/posts).
Actions: push the post to your CMS, publish to social channels, or notify teams.
POST /blogs/posts or PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
title, content, author, category, slug, status
Trigger: before publishing, verify slug uniqueness using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists?slug={slug}.
Actions: enforce slug uniqueness, auto-generate slug variants, or map to an existing post.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug
Trigger: when a new author or category is added in Blogs API.
Actions: sync with your CMS or CRM by calling GET /blogs/authors and GET /blogs/categories, then propagate to downstream apps.
GET /blogs/authors; GET /blogs/categories
author_id, author_name, category_id, category_name
Automate publishing workflows without writing code—map fields and routes visually.
Speed up content distribution by triggering cross‑apps when a post is created or updated.
Centralize content data in one place and reuse across marketing, CMS, and analytics apps.
Key elements: endpoints, authentication, triggers, actions, data mapping, and error handling.
Application Programming Interface that enables two software systems to communicate.
A specific URL path in an API that performs a defined operation.
A URL-friendly string derived from a post title used to locate content.
An open standard for access delegation used by APIs to authorize apps without sharing passwords.
Create a draft in Blogs API and push it to your CMS when a draft is saved in your content editor.
When a post is published, syndicate to social, email, and your website using the endpoints for blogs/posts and emails/builder if needed.
Validate and adjust slugs automatically using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and update via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId.
Generate an API key with the required scope and configure the Zapier App Connector to use it securely.
Select the Blogs API endpoints you need (e.g., POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId) and map fields like title, content, slug, and author.
Run tests, fix mappings, and deploy your workflow to automate publishing.
Blogs API in this guide represents a bridge between your content system and the automation platform. It exposes endpoints to create, update, and manage blog content. Use the Apps Connector to connect and orchestrate tasks without coding. Each endpoint corresponds to a specific action in your automation flows.
Yes. You can combine multiple endpoints within a single flow by mapping the triggers to actions across steps. This lets you build end-to-end workflows like creating a post, updating metadata, and notifying channels in one run.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and the scope granted. Plan for retries and backoff in your flows to avoid hitting limits during bursts.
Authentication uses an API key with the specified scope, plus the Zapier App Connector’s OAuth flow to securely pass credentials between services.
No. You can configure most flows using the visual editor—no code required. For advanced needs, you can add custom fields and mappings.
Use test runs in the Zapier editor to verify field mappings, triggers, and actions. Check logs for errors and adjust mappings as needed.
The list of endpoints is shown in the ENDPOINTS section or API reference within the connector setup. You can also view available endpoints on the Blogs API docs page.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
