Use secure tokens and scopes such as emails/builder.readonly to access the endpoints
Keep credentials safe and use OAuth tokens to authorize with the GHL API

To connect the GHL Blogs API with Rankr, start by obtaining API credentials for both systems and configure the required scopes such as emails/builder.readonly. Ensure you have access to the blogs endpoints you plan to use. Next, map the endpoints between Blogs API and Rankr actions so that new posts can trigger email drafts and campaigns automatically.
Essential endpoints typically include GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, POST /blogs/posts, and POST emails/builder for assembling and sending emails. Having access to endpoints for uploading blog data and retrieving slug existence helps prevent duplicates and ensures consistent publishing.
Yes. No-code tools allow you to connect GHL and Rankr using visual builders and prebuilt endpoints. You can configure triggers, actions, and data mapping without writing code, then test end-to-end in a sandbox environment.
Yes. Use OAuth-style tokens and per-endpoint scopes to limit access. Store tokens securely and rotate credentials regularly. The GHL API and Rankr should both support secure authentication practices to protect data in transit.
Start with a dry run by publishing a test blog post and confirming that the corresponding email draft is created. Verify data is correctly mapped, then run a live test with a small audience to observe delivery and reporting.
If endpoints change, update your data mappings and re-run integration tests. Maintain a changelog and use versioned API calls when available to minimize disruption.
Logs and metrics are typically available in the Rankr dashboard and the GHL developer console. Look for endpoints access logs, error rates, and event triggers to troubleshoot issues quickly.
