When a new email builder is created in Blogs API, trigger a Zap to propagate the template to your CMS or marketing campaigns.
Actions can create, update, or fetch templates using endpoints 1, 3, or 4 to keep campaigns in sync.
GET /emails/builder
builderId, templateId, status
When a new post is created via Blogs API, trigger a Zap to publish, share or notify teams.
Actions can POST or PUT to /blogs/posts and /blogs/posts/:postId to push updates.
POST /blogs/posts
postId, title, slug
Whenever a slug is generated or edited, verify availability with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists.
Actions can validate or create posts with a new slug.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug, postId
No technical coding required — automate content workflows by connecting endpoints with simple triggers and actions.
Faster publishing — pull in email-driven content, schedule posts, and publish from a single workflow.
Scalable automation — reuse templates and endpoints across multiple posts and categories.
Understand the core terms you will see when integrating the Blogs API with the Zapier App Connector, including endpoints, slug checks, and no code automation.
A standard authorization framework used to securely access APIs without sharing user credentials. In this integration the Blogs API scope is emails/builder.readonly.
A URL friendly string used to identify a blog post. The slug should be unique and can be checked with the slug exists endpoint.
An API route that performs a specific action such as GET emails/builder or POST blogs/posts.
Creating automatic workflows using tools like Zapier without writing code.
When a new email builder is created, automatically draft a blog post in your CMS for review.
Use campaign triggers to create and schedule blog posts in bulk.
When an author updates a post, push updates via the blogs post endpoints.
Obtain your GHL API credentials and set up the OAuth client for the Blogs API with the required scope.
In Zapier, map the Blogs API endpoints to triggers and actions you need, starting with GET emails/builder and POST blogs/posts.
Run tests, validate data mappings, and deploy to production with monitoring.
No coding is required to connect GHL Blogs API to the Zapier App Connector. Use triggers and actions to automate tasks without writing code. The platform handles authentication and data mapping for you.
You will typically need the emails/builder.readonly scope to access builder data. Some setups may require additional scopes for writing templates or posts.
Yes. Use the slug exists endpoint GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to verify availability before creating or updating a post.
Start with the read endpoints like GET emails/builder and GET /blogs/categories to understand data structures, then add write endpoints as your automation needs grow.
Access tokens expire after a period and you can refresh them via the OAuth flow or reauthenticate in Zapier. Plan for token renewal in your workflows.
Yes. You can fetch and display blog categories using GET /blogs/categories. You can filter posts by category as needed.
Use a simple test Zap that runs a GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists check and a POST /blogs/posts to create a test post, then monitor logs and data mappings.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
