Access to endpoints such as /blogs/posts and /emails/builder requires a valid GHL API token with the specified scope: emails/builder.readonly. Store credentials securely and rotate regularly.
Configure the Zapier connection to securely pass your GHL token to each request. Use encrypted storage and test credentials in a sandbox before going live.

No coding is required thanks to Zapier’s drag-and-drop automation. The GHL endpoints provide actions and triggers you can connect without writing code. This guide shows how to map fields and configure data flows between Blogs API and Zapier App Connector.
To publish a blog post you typically use POST /blogs/posts to create the post, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure the slug is unique. You may also use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update the post after creation.
Slug uniqueness is important to SEO and usability. Use the slug-exists endpoint before creation, and consider appending a unique identifier if a clash occurs.
Yes. You can map blog categories from your email content or templates by retrieving categories with GET /blogs/categories and applying them to posts during creation.
Permissions typically include access to emails/builder.readonly for reading templates and POST/PUT actions for creating or updating posts. Ensure your connection uses the minimum required scope.
Yes. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update content, title, or slug after a post is published. You can automate updates from the same Zapier workflow.
