Obtain a SparkPost API key and configure credentials in GHL.
Map the endpoints in the GHL integration settings for Blogs API.
Create a test workflow to ensure emails build and send correctly.
The Blogs API integration with SparkPost via GHL lets you pull blog content and send emails automatically. It uses the SparkPost API keys and GHL’s workflow tools to generate and dispatch email campaigns. This combo is ideal for turning new posts into newsletters without manual steps.
Yes. You need an active SparkPost account to generate an API key and authorize the connection in GHL. The Blogs API acts as the bridge to pull content and push it into SparkPost templates for sending.
For basic sync, you’ll typically use endpoints like GET emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, and GET /blogs/authors to fetch data and populate templates. You can extend to scheduling and slug checks as needed.
Yes. You can schedule emails using the emails/schedule endpoint and GHL workflows, arranging delivery times to match your publishing calendar.
Test the connection by running a draft workflow in GHL, verifying that content pulls from Blogs API, templates render correctly in SparkPost, and test emails reach a test address.
Authentication uses API keys or OAuth. Store keys securely in GHL, rotate them regularly, and restrict access to maintain security.
Delivery logs and campaign analytics are available in SparkPost and surfaced in GHL workflows for monitoring and troubleshooting.
