To get started, create API credentials in GHL and securely authenticate requests. Use the Blogs API scope to manage posts, authors, categories, and related data.
Connect Typeform to your GHL account by granting permission to access the Blogs API endpoints, enabling data flow from form responses to blog content.
Core endpoints used in this flow include GET emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/posts. Use these to create, update, validate, and categorize blog content from Typeform submissions.
Trigger: a new Typeform response creates a new blog post draft in Blogs API
Actions: POST to /blogs/posts with mapped fields like title, content, slug, category, and author
Method path: POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: title, content, slug, category, author_id
Trigger: updates to a Typeform submission
Actions: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update content and metadata
Path: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Fields: postId, title, content, slug
Trigger: Typeform submission includes a slug
Actions: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slug, create post if available
Path: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Fields: slug

Create API credentials in GHL and configure within Typeform integrations.
Link Typeform fields to blog fields and define when to trigger posts.
Run tests, verify data flow, and push templates to production.
Answer: No-code approach — you can connect using built-in triggers and actions. The Blogs API endpoints handle content creation, updates, and retrieval. Use field mappings to align form data with blog attributes. Test in a staging environment and monitor the flow to ensure data integrity.
Answer: Essential endpoints for basic publishing include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique slugs. Also consider GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to populate drop-downs in Typeform mappings.
Answer: Yes. You can update existing posts by listening for Typeform changes and using PUT /blogs/posts/:postId. Map the postId field and content fields to ensure the right post is updated and avoid duplicates.
Answer: Slug uniqueness is critical for SEO. Before creating, check with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; only create if false. If slug exists, prompt for a new slug or append a timestamp to maintain unique URL paths.
Answer: Authentication is supported via API keys and OAuth scopes defined for blogs and emails. Keep credentials secure, rotate tokens regularly, and apply the least-privilege principle.
Answer: Yes, you can schedule posts after submission by adding a publishing window in the Typeform-to-Blogs workflow. Use a delay or date field from Typeform to trigger a future publish on PUT or POST path, depending on your CMS workflow.
Answer: Logs can be viewed in both GHL and Typeform dashboards depending on your setup; enable webhooks to capture flow details. Consider enabling endpoints like emails builder and blogs post endpoints to monitor success and failures. Use error handling to retry failed steps.
