To enable the integration, generate API credentials in GHL with read/write scopes for blogs and emails, then authorize Sprout Studio to access those resources.
In Sprout Studio, create a new GHL connection for the Blogs API, enter the API key or token, and grant the necessary read/write permissions to enable publishing and retrieval.

A real-time callback used to trigger automated workflows when an event occurs.
A secure protocol for granting access tokens between apps without sharing credentials.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a post in your blog.
As you finalize a draft in Sprout Studio, automatically generate a corresponding blog post in Blogs API with title, content, slug, and publish date.
When a post is published, automatically fire a welcome/teaser email to subscribers using the Blogs API-powered templates.
Keep author bios and post categories synced between Sprout Studio and Blogs API for consistent metadata.
Create API credentials in GHL with the necessary scopes for blogs and emails.
Enter the endpoint, API key or token, and authorize the connection in Sprout Studio’s integration settings.
Run tests, review logs, and enable automation recipes for publishing and promoting content.
The Blogs API provides programmatic access to blog content, categories, authors, and slug checks, enabling automation between Sprout Studio and your blog. It exposes endpoints to create, update, and fetch posts, categories, and authors, plus checks for URL slugs. Use triggers and actions to automate publishing, updates, and distribution to subscribers.
No heavy coding is required. This integration uses no-code connectors and prebuilt actions. If you need custom workflows, you can extend with small scripting or webhooks, but most teams can get set up in under an hour.
Key endpoints for publishing include POST /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/categories to set metadata. You can create a post with title, content, slug, and author fields, then publish to your blog. Additional endpoints help manage categories and authors.
Yes. The Blogs API supports scheduling and publishing at a selected time via body parameters or separate endpoints. Use the scheduling workflow to coordinate email promotions and blog publication.
We recommend using OAuth where available and securing API keys in a vault. Limit scopes to read/write only as needed and rotate credentials regularly.
Yes. You can connect multiple Sprout Studio projects by generating separate API credentials and mapping them in your GHL account. Each connection has its own set of endpoints and triggers.
If you run into errors, start with the logs in Sprout Studio and GHL, then check endpoint docs and rate limits. Common issues include invalid credentials, missing scopes, or incorrect payloads; verify and retry.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
