Authenticate to the Blogs API using your GHL API key and secure tokens to ensure all requests are authorized.
Upsales authentication should be configured to securely call the Blogs API endpoints, using OAuth2 where available or API keys with restricted scopes.
Key endpoints include: GET emails/builder, GET emails/schedule, POST /emails/builder/data, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and more as listed in the CSV variable references.
Trigger: When Upsales creates a new blog item, push to Blogs API to publish online.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts with title, content, and category; optionally attach author; then confirm published status.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, categoryId, authorId, publishedAt
Trigger: When a blog post is updated in Upsales, sync changes to Blogs API.
Actions: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId with updated fields; optional call to POST /blogs/post-update.write for history.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug, categoryId, authorId, updatedAt
Trigger: When creating a new draft in Upsales, verify slug uniqueness before publishing in Blogs API.
Actions: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slug; GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to ensure references exist; then create or update.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug, categoryId, authorId
