Use OAuth 2.0 to authorize Softr to access your Blogs data via the GHL API securely
In Softr store API credentials and tokens securely to enable ongoing syncing with the GHL Blogs API
Key endpoints include emails and blogs routes such as GET emails/builder POST blogs/posts GET blogs/posts/url-slug-exists along with categories and authors to support publishing workflows
Trigger a new Softr form submission to create a draft post in the Blogs API
Map form fields to post fields such as title content slug category and author_id; set status to draft; publish when approved
POST /blogs/posts
Required fields: title content slug category author_id
Trigger edits in Softr to update an existing post in GHL via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Push updated content and metadata; adjust category or tags; reflect changes back in Softr if needed
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Required fields: postId title content slug
Trigger creating a new post checks slug availability via GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Check slug availability fetch categories and authors if needed then proceed to create
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Required fields: slug
Automate content workflows without writing code saving time and reducing errors
Centralize content creation by managing posts in Softr and publishing to GHL with a single trigger
Flexible permissions with OAuth scopes and API keys for secure collaboration
Understand the elements and processes involved in connecting Softr with the GHL Blogs API
A specific URL and HTTP method that allows you to access or manipulate data in the GHL API
A URL friendly identifier used for routing and SEO of a post
A standard protocol for authorizing access to resources without sharing credentials
A blog entry stored in the GHL Blogs API with title content and metadata
Pull content from Softr forms to draft posts in GHL for review before publishing
Update Softr records when a post goes from draft to published in the GHL
Map Softr category fields to GHL categories to auto organize posts
Register the Softr app in GHL and obtain client id client secret and the required scope emails/builder.readonly
In Softr map form fields to blog fields and select endpoints such as POST blogs/posts and slug check
Run tests to ensure data flows correctly and monitor for errors
You do not need to code to start the integration. Softr can connect to the Blogs API using standard API connections and available endpoints. A few minutes to configure field mappings and endpoints allows you to automate basic publishing workflows. For advanced workflows you can extend mappings but no code is required for the common scenarios
For basic publishing you typically need the create post endpoint POST blogs/posts the slug existence check GET blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and the fetch categories and authors endpoints. This combination supports creating posts with correct routing and metadata
Slug conflicts are prevented by checking availability before creation using the slug check endpoint. If a slug exists you can generate a new slug or append a unique identifier before proceeding
The integration uses OAuth 2.0 for secure authorization along with API keys for service to service calls. Your credentials stay secured and are rotated as needed
Yes you can fetch authors and categories using the respective endpoints. This data can be mapped into Softr to enrich posts and assign correct metadata at publish time
Yes mappings are flexible. You can remap fields such as title content slug category and author to fit your Softr form fields and publishing workflow
You can monitor health via error logs and integration status dashboards in your GHL account and Softr. Set up alerts for failed requests and retry logic
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
