Connect securely using an API key or OAuth depending on your setup. Store credentials in a secure vault and reference them in your GHL connections.
Obtain an API key for Unisender and grant only necessary scopes. Use environment-secure storage and rotate credentials regularly.

GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Key fields: slug, postId, categoryId
No coding required to automate post-to-campaign workflows; use built-in triggers.
Faster content campaigns with real-time data sync between platforms.
Easier maintenance with centralized API management and error alerts.
Key elements include endpoints, authentication, data mapping, and webhooks; these processes ensure reliable data flow.
A set of rules and protocols that lets applications communicate and share data.
Specific URLs that perform actions like create, update, fetch, or delete resources.
The process of verifying identity and permissions before granting access to APIs.
A URL provided to receive real-time updates from an API when certain events occur.
Set a trigger in GHL to push new posts to Unisender, creating or updating campaigns automatically.
Pull reader data from Unisender and respond to engagement by tagging and segmenting in Unisender campaigns.
Reflect campaign outcomes back in the Blogs API to keep post status aligned with marketing efforts.
Generate and securely store API keys or tokens for both platforms.
Define the endpoints (posts, checks, etc.) and set up webhook listeners for real-time updates.
Run end-to-end tests to ensure data moves smoothly and reliably.
No coding is required to set up a basic Blogs API to Unisender workflow within GHL. Use the built-in actions and triggers to connect post data to campaigns. If you’re comfortable with simple data mapping, you can create effective automations without writing code. In more advanced setups, you may map custom fields and statuses to ensure campaigns reflect your latest posts and engagement metrics.
Essential endpoints include POST /blogs/posts for creating posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure unique URLs. You’ll also rely on GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to enrich campaigns with metadata. For email campaigns, use GET/POST on emails endpoints as needed.
Authentication should be handled via API keys or OAuth tokens, stored securely and rotated regularly. Use per-app credentials with the principle of least privilege, and leverage your platform’s secret management features to avoid exposure. Enable scope-limited access and monitor usage with built-in rate limit alerts to prevent service disruption.
Yes. Use sandbox or test data flows to validate connections, endpoints, and mapping before going live. Create test posts, campaigns, and audiences to verify triggers and actions without impacting real customers.
Map blog fields such as title, slug, excerpt, date, and author to corresponding Unisender campaign fields. Use slug checks to avoid duplicates and align categories with Unisender tags or lists for precise segmentation.
If an endpoint returns an error, inspect the response code and message, retry with exponential backoff, and verify credentials and endpoint permissions. Implement alerting so failures don’t go unnoticed and fix root causes quickly.
API rate limits vary by endpoint. Refer to the provider’s docs for quotas and throttling guidance. Build your flows with retry logic and backoff to stay within limits while delivering timely data.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
