Use a secure API key with the required scope and store credentials safely. The integration leverages the Blogs API endpoints listed below to read and write content as needed.
Spotio connects to the GHL API using standard OAuth 2.0 client credentials or API key-based methods, depending on the endpoint. Ensure your app has valid credentials and trusted redirect URIs.
API Endpoint1: GET emails/builder; API Endpoint2: emails/builder.write; API Endpoint3: POST emails/builder; API Endpoint4: POST /emails/builder/data; API Endpoint5: DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; API Endpoint6: emails/schedule.readonly; API Endpoint7: GET emails/schedule; API Endpoint8: blogs/post.write; API Endpoint9: POST /blogs/posts; API Endpoint10: blogs/post-update.write; API Endpoint11: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; API Endpoint12: blogs/check-slug.readonly; API Endpoint13: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; API Endpoint14: blogs/category.readonly; API Endpoint15: GET /blogs/categories; API Endpoint16: blogs/author.readonly; API Endpoint17: GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: A new blog post is published in Blogs API (POST /blogs/posts).
Actions: create or update a corresponding Spotio record with post data and attach metadata; notify teammates as needed.
POST /blogs/posts
title, slug, content, author_id, published_at
Trigger: Scheduled cadence (e.g., every hour or daily).
Actions: fetch latest posts (GET /blogs/posts) and push updates to Spotio records.
GET /blogs/posts
postId, title, status
Trigger: Spotio requests a slug check before publishing.
Actions: verify slug existence with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists and retrieve post data if available.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug

Whenever Spotio activity indicates a content need, automatically draft a blog post in Blogs API with suggested topics and keywords.
Schedule automatic reminders to authors when Spotio stages trigger content publishing, improving throughput.
Combine Blogs API metrics with Spotio activity in a single dashboard for executive visibility.
Create an API key in Blogs API with the required scope and capture the client ID and secret for OAuth.
Map Blog endpoints to Spotio fields and define triggers, actions, and data transformations.
Test in a staging environment, validate data flows, and promote to production after sign-off.
For most basic setups, you do not need to write code. Use the no-code integration builder to configure triggers, actions, and mappings. If you use advanced endpoints or custom logic, some scripting can help, but it is not required for core flows. Start with the provided endpoints and templates to get a quick win without a development team.
Blogs API authentication relies on a secure API key and/or OAuth 2.0 client credentials. Ensure the key has the necessary scope (e.g., emails/builder.readonly) and rotate credentials regularly. Spotio uses its own OAuth flow or API keys to authenticate requests to GHL endpoints. Always follow your security policy when storing and transmitting credentials.
A basic connection requires endpoints for reading and writing posts, checking slugs, and retrieving authors/categories. Common choices are POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, and GET /blogs/authors. You can expand later as needs grow. Test each endpoint individually to verify permissions and data formats.
Data mapping is performed in the integration builder where fields from Blogs API (title, slug, content, author_id) are mapped to Spotio fields. Use transformation steps to format dates, languages, and status values. Validate with sample records to ensure the target fields reflect the source data correctly.
Rate limits vary by endpoint and plan. Plan for retries with exponential backoff and implement a queue for high-volume updates. Consult the API provider’s quota documentation and monitor usage via your analytics dashboard.
Yes. No-code automation builders let you create triggers, actions, and mappings without writing code. You can build end-to-end workflows, test them, and deploy with a few clicks. For advanced scenarios, you can add custom code blocks if your plan supports it.
Endpoint documentation is available in the Blogs API developer portal and the GHL API reference. Look for sections on authentication, endpoints, and example payloads. If you need a quick tour, start with the example templates included in this guide.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
