Use a secure API Key or OAuth2 flow to authorize access to the Blogs API from the Zapier App Connector. Ensure the app scope matches the endpoints you plan to use.
Zapier App Connector supports OAuth2 and API Key methods to authenticate with the Blogs API. Follow the connector setup prompts to authorize and securely store credentials.
Available endpoints include: – GET emails/builder – GET emails/schedule – POST emails/builder – POST /emails/builder/data – DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId – POST /blogs/posts – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId – POST /blogs/post-update.write – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – GET /blogs/categories – GET /blogs/authors

No code automation between GHL and your apps, saving time and reducing errors.
Prebuilt triggers and actions speed up setup and deployment.
Scalable content, email, and scheduling workflows for teams.
Key elements and processes explained to help you design reliable automations using GHL endpoints.
GHL stands for the GHL platform API, a set of endpoints that lets apps read and write data in your GHL account.
A defined URL path and HTTP method used to access a specific capability in the GHL API.
A real-time push mechanism that notifies Zapier of events in near real time.
A URL friendly identifier used in blog post URLs.
When a new post is created in Blogs API, Zapier can push the content to Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter.
Automatically update subscribers when a post goes live.
Reflect new categories or changes in site navigation automatically.
Authorize Zapier App Connector to access your Blogs API using OAuth2 or API Key.
Select available endpoints such as new posts and update posts and map fields to your Zap.
Run tests, verify data mappings, then enable the Zap for live use.
The Blogs API in the GHL integration exposes endpoints for creating, updating, and retrieving blog related data. It lets you automate content workflows from your content calendar to publishing and email campaigns. The API is designed to be used from Zapier App Connector for no code automations across your tools. Using this integration, you can trigger actions in Zapier when posts are created or updated, avoiding manual data entry and ensuring consistency across channels.
Authentication ensures only authorized apps can access your GHL Blogs data. Use OAuth2 or API keys depending on your setup, and ensure the requested scope covers the endpoints you plan to use. In Zapier, configure the app’s auth type in the connector settings and securely store tokens or keys. This protects data while enabling seamless automation.
The Blogs API endpoints cover creating posts, updating posts, checking slug existence, and retrieving author and category data. This enables end-to-end content workflows from draft to publish and beyond. Common workflows use POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs before publishing.
Yes, you can set triggers for new posts or updates to existing posts. Zapier will then execute actions such as posting to social channels, updating newsletters, or refreshing site navigation. This enables real-time or near real-time content distribution without manual steps.
No extensive coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a no-code interface for mapping fields and selecting endpoints. Some basic data mapping and endpoint configuration is helpful, but you can accomplish most automations with built-in tools and templates.
Testing validates your authentication and data mappings before going live. Use Zapier’s test feature to simulate triggers and actions, then review logs for any mismatches.
API rate limits depend on your GHL plan and the Blogs API configuration. If you hit limits, implement exponential backoff or stagger requests in your Zap to avoid errors.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
