To authorize access, generate an API key or OAuth token for the Blogs API and grant Simply-Coach the necessary scope (emails/builder.readonly).
Use your Simply-Coach credentials to securely connect to the Blogs API. Store tokens safely and renew them before they expire.

Build automations without writing code to connect blog posts with email campaigns.
Use visual builders to map data and trigger actions.
Scale content workflows across teams with templates and schedules.
Understand the core elements and processes used in this integration, including endpoints, authentication, triggers, and actions.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action with a service.
Standard codes returned by APIs that indicate success, client errors, or server errors (200, 400, 401, 404, 429, 500).
A secure authorization framework that lets apps access user data without sharing passwords.
Event-based callbacks that notify your app when something changes on the provider side.
Turn incoming emails into draft blog posts in the Blogs API and push them to Simply-Coach for review.
Automatically publish updates in Simply-Coach when the Blogs API detects new course content.
Tag posts by category and trigger targeted emails based on tags.
Create and store your Blogs API credentials in Simply-Coach and grant required scopes.
Map blog fields to Simply-Coach fields for posts, authors, and categories.
Turn on triggers and test end-to-end flow with a sample post.
Authentication uses standard API keys or OAuth 2.0 tokens. Generate credentials in your GHL account and grant the app the required scope for emails and blog actions. Store tokens securely and rotate them regularly to maintain secure access. If a token expires, use the refresh flow to obtain a new token.
To publish a post from Simply-Coach to the Blogs API, you typically call POST /blogs/posts with the post data. You may also use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure the slug is unique before posting and to verify the slug.
Map fields such as title, content, author, category, and slug between the Blogs API and Simply-Coach templates. Use the data mapping settings in Simply-Coach to ensure updates propagate to email campaigns and scheduling features.
If a request fails, check the HTTP status code, error message, and rate limit headers; retry with exponential backoff. Ensure the endpoint is correct, credentials are valid, and the required scopes are granted.
Yes, most endpoints have rate limits. Plan requests and batch updates when possible. Monitor quota usage in your GHL and Simply-Coach dashboards and implement retry logic.
Yes. Use a sandbox or test post to validate the flow without affecting live data. Use test credentials and mock data to simulate triggers and verify outcomes before going live.
