Yes—GHL connects to Blogs API with no code using Zapier App Connector. Start by selecting the Blogs API connection, choose the triggers you need, and map the fields. If you run into any issues, use the test connection feature to verify credentials and permissions. Tip: Use Studio or templates to speed up setup and reuse across projects.
Most of the core actions are exposed through endpoints like /blogs/posts and /emails/builder, which lets you create, update, and retrieve posts and email templates. You can also check slug existence and fetch authors or categories to enrich your workflows. Not all endpoints are required for every page; choose the ones that fit your automation goals.
Field mapping is straightforward: align postId, title, slug, content, and authorId between Blogs API and GHL. Use test runs to confirm that data flows correctly. If a field is optional in one system, provide sensible defaults or conditional logic in your workflow to prevent failures.
Supported authentication methods include API key and OAuth token. Choose the method supported by your Blogs API plan and provide the necessary scopes. For security, rotate credentials regularly and store them in a secure vault; Zapier will not display your secret in plain text after setup.
To test connections, use the built-in test feature in Zapier or the connection test in the Blogs API app. Verify successful responses for the endpoints you plan to use. If tests fail, check scopes, credentials, and endpoint paths; adjust mappings and retry.
Yes. You can schedule posts and emails by using delays or calendar-based triggers in your Zap workflows. Combine time-based triggers with endpoint actions to ensure posts publish at the right moment and campaigns send on schedule.
Additional resources include the Blogs API developer docs, GHL integration guides, and Zapier templates. If you need more help, contact Rankr support for a tailored setup, or search our knowledge base for step-by-step tutorials.
