No coding is required to start. Once you have the API key, you can connect Blogs API to tl-dv using GHL’s built-in connectors and test endpoints. Begin with a read-only scope to explore, then request write access if you need to publish or update posts. Always secure credentials and monitor quotas.
The minimum scope shown here is emails/builder.readonly for reading email templates; you may also need write access for blog actions like creating or updating posts. Request only the scopes you need and adjust as your integration grows. Store keys securely, rotate them regularly, and use environment variables rather than hard-coding secrets.
Publishing posts requires write permissions on blog endpoints, such as POST /blogs/posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Also use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to prevent duplicate slugs and ensure clean URL routing.
Store API keys in a secure vault and restrict access to trusted services. Prefer OAuth where possible and avoid embedding credentials in client-side code or logs. Regularly rotate keys and monitor usage.
Yes. Use the Blogs API scheduling capability to plan posts ahead of time, or trigger scheduling from tl-dv when a post is approved. Always confirm publish times align with your content calendar and audience time zones.
Common errors include invalid credentials, missing or incorrect scopes, and hitting rate limits. Implement retries with exponential backoff, log error responses, and verify endpoint availability and payload formats.
Rate limits vary by plan and endpoint. Monitor response headers for remaining quotas and adjust request frequency accordingly. If you approach limits, stagger requests, batch operations where possible, or consider a higher plan.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
