To begin, generate API credentials for the Blogs API in GHL and securely store them in Rankr. Grant only the necessary scope for content creation and retrieval to keep your data safe.
In Rankr, add the Blogs API integration and paste your client credentials or API key. Use the minimum scope required and store credentials securely.

The Blogs API integration in Rankr lets you create, edit, and manage blog content via API calls. It enables automated publishing and synchronization of posts between Rankr and the Blogs API. This integration is designed to be reliable and scalable, handling drafts, published posts, and updates across teams.
Authentication typically uses API keys or OAuth credentials. Keep credentials secure, limit scopes to the minimum needed (such as post creation or retrieval), and rotate keys periodically. Monitor access logs and set alerts for unusual activity to maintain security.
Posts are created with POST /blogs/posts and updated with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. These endpoints handle the core publishing flow from Rankr to the Blogs API. You can also fetch slug status with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to avoid duplicates.
Yes. To update a published post, call PUT /blogs/posts/:postId with the fields you want to change. Ensure postId is correct and that you provide only the attributes you intend to modify.
Slug existence can be checked via GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing. If the slug already exists, adjust the title or manually customize the slug to ensure uniqueness.
Yes. No-code templates and mapping flows let you set up the integration without writing code. Use Rankr’s UI to connect to Blogs API endpoints, configure triggers, and define actions.
Implement retries, backoffs, and clear error handling messages. Use API error responses to diagnose issues and maintain robust automation in your publishing workflows.
