The Blogs API lets you create, read, update, and delete blog posts and related data. In combination with Teamleader Focus, you can automate publishing workflows and notifications. It’s designed to be accessible to non-developers with no-code options via the Zapier App Connector.
Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 tokens or API keys to securely exchange credentials between GHL and Teamleader Focus. Start by creating an app connection in your GHL developer console, then authorize the connection from the Teamleader Focus setup screen. Tokens can be rotated periodically for security.
Available endpoints include: GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and more. Use the endpoints that match your workflow without needing all of them.
Yes. You can schedule emails via emails/schedule and schedule blog postings via the blogs endpoints. Use the builder to prepare email templates and trigger deliveries alongside blog publication.
No code? You can set up everything using the Zapier App Connector and the prebuilt triggers and actions without writing code. For advanced scenarios, you can use custom webhooks if needed.
Test flows by using sandbox/test credentials, run an end-to-end test from Teamleader Focus to the Blogs API, and verify results in both apps. Use verbose logs to troubleshoot any failures.
For support, consult the Rankr knowledge base, reach out to our support team, or view the developers docs for GHL and the Blogs API to troubleshoot authentication and endpoints.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
