Use OAuth or API Key access depending on your setup. This section outlines a typical flow, required scopes (including emails/builder.readonly), and how to test the connection before going live.
Grant Trainual the necessary permissions in GHL to read and write blogs and emails data. Ensure scopes cover the endpoints listed in this guide.
– GET /emails/builder — retrieve email templates to align with Trainual content – POST /emails/builder/data — create or update email builder data – GET /emails/schedule — fetch email schedules for automation – GET /blogs/posts — list blog posts and drafts – POST /blogs/posts — create a new blog post – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId — update an existing post – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists — check if a slug is available – GET /blogs/categories — fetch blog categories – GET /blogs/authors — fetch blog authors – GET /blogs/posts — list posts for syncing between Trainual and Blogs API
Trigger when new Trainual content is published or an existing course is updated.
Actions: create or update email templates, schedule follow-ups, and attach relevant Trainual modules.
GET /emails/builder
TemplateId, locationId, subject, content, trainualLink
Trigger when Trainual content or modules are updated.
Actions: create or update blog posts, manage slugs, set authors and categories.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, author, category
Trigger for validation when posts are drafted or scheduled.
Actions: fetch posts, verify slugExists, and flag for review if needed.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
postId, slug, status
No custom development required—set up automations with clicks and templates.
Centralized content management: align Trainual training with live blog content and updates.
Faster onboarding and publishing using reusable templates and workflows.
This section defines the core elements and processes: APIs, endpoints, triggers, actions, data fields, and the data flow between Trainual and the Blogs API.
Application Programming Interface – a set of rules that lets software communicate and exchange data.
A human-friendly, URL-safe identifier used to reference a blog post.
Authorization framework that issues access tokens for API calls without exposing user credentials.
A real-time HTTP callback used to notify apps about events as they happen.
When Trainual content is updated, automatically generate email templates in the Emails Builder to notify teams and drive engagement.
Use Trainual modules as source content to draft blog posts, ensuring consistency across training and public content.
Combine metrics from Trainual interactions and Blogs API performance for a single view of content impact.
Create or retrieve API credentials in GHL for the Blogs API and ensure scopes include emails/builder.readonly and posts management.
Define triggers in Trainual to push updates and map fields to the corresponding endpoints (emails/builder, blogs/posts, etc).
Run test events, verify data syncing, and monitor logs to catch and fix issues quickly.
The Blogs API integration with Trainual lets you align training content with live blog content and email templates. It enables automated workflows between Trainual modules and blog posts, emails, and schedules. This reduces manual work and keeps messaging consistent across platforms. You can start with authorizing access, selecting the endpoints you need (emails builder, blogs posts, categories, authors), and then building triggers that push updates automatically.
No heavy coding is required. The setup uses no-code automations and endpoints mapped to Trainual triggers. You configure authentication, map fields, and define actions. If you need advanced logic, you can extend with lightweight scripts or integration tools, but most teams start with built-in triggers and actions.
Typical workflows involve: (1) syncing Trainual updates to email templates via GET /emails/builder and POST /emails/builder/data; (2) publishing Trainual content to blog posts via POST /blogs/posts; (3) validating slugs with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. You can tailor these to your content cadence.
Authentication is typically done via OAuth or API keys. Ensure the access token or key has the required scopes (including emails/builder.readonly and blogs-related endpoints). Test the connection with a dry run before enabling live syncing.
Yes. You can schedule emails and blog posts as part of automated workflows. Use the emails endpoints to schedule messages and the blogs endpoints to queue or publish posts in alignment with Trainual milestones.
Common fields include title, content, slug, author, category for blogs; templateId, locationId, subject, and content for emails. You map Trainual fields to these endpoints to maintain consistency across both systems.
Monitoring is done via API response logs, webhooks, and any built-in dashboards in your integration tool. Look for error codes, failed triggers, and mismatches in data fields to diagnose issues quickly.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
