Establish a secure connection by configuring your Blogs API credentials in the Uptics workspace. Use the provided API key and ensure the scope includes access to blogs, emails templates, and post management as shown in the integration guide.
Authorize Uptics to access your Blogs API endpoints. This typically involves enabling API key access or OAuth in Uptics and selecting the endpoints you intend to use, such as post creation, slug checks, and template management.
The integration leverages endpoints across blogs, emails, templates, categories, and authors. Typical usage includes: GET/POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, GET emails/schedule, GET /blogs/posts, etc.
Trigger: when a new draft is created in Uptics, automatically create or update a post in Blogs API.
Actions: POST /blogs/posts to create, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to ensure a unique slug.
Methods: POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Key fields: title, content, slug, authorId, categoryId, status
Trigger: updates to email templates in Uptics propagate to the GHL emails builder in real time.
Actions: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId
Methods: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId
Key fields: templateId, locationId, subject, body, subjectLine
Trigger: when categories or authors are updated, sync metadata to Uptics for improved organization and searchability.
Actions: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Methods: GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Key fields: slug, authorId, categoryId
Launch faster with a no-code workflow that connects Blogs API to Uptics without writing a line of code.
Automate publishing and updates across blogs, emails, and categories from a single visual builder.
Gain real-time insights and analytics by syncing data back to Uptics dashboards.
This section defines the elements and processes used in the integration: endpoints, triggers, actions, and the mapping of fields between Uptics and Blogs API.
GHL is the API environment used by the integration to connect apps via endpoints, enabling automation without custom code.
A specific URL in the GHL API that performs a defined action, such as creating a post or retrieving authors.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a blog post, typically based on the title.
A real-time notification mechanism that triggers actions in response to events.
Set up a workflow that drafts a post in Uptics and auto-publishes to Blogs API when approved, with versioning and rollback.
Trigger email campaigns based on new or updated blog content, using templates synced from Blogs API.
Leverage Uptics analytics to recommend new topics and auto-create posts in Blogs API.
Obtain your API key, client secret, and set the required scopes to access posts, categories, authors, and templates.
In Uptics, map the GHL endpoints to your workflows for blog posts, categories, and emails.
Run tests with sandbox data, validate data flow, then deploy to production.
Answer: To authenticate, add your Blogs API key and required scopes in your Uptics connection settings. The setup walks you through selecting the appropriate endpoints and validating access. Once connected, test by creating a sample post and verifying it appears in both systems. If you run into permission issues, recheck the scopes and API key permissions. In most cases, a quick re-authentication resolves the issue.
Answer: Blog post endpoints include creating, updating, and retrieving, such as POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. You can also fetch lists of posts, categories, and authors via GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. Use these in your Uptics workflows to manage content lifecycle.
Answer: Yes. Before creating a post, you can check slug availability with GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists. This helps avoid conflicts and ensures clean URLs.
Answer: The integration supports managing email templates via endpoints like GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, and DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId. Map these into Uptics workflows to automate template updates and deployment.
Answer: Rate limits vary by plan, but the integration respects typical API quotas. If you hit a limit, implement backoff in your workflows and stagger requests, especially during mass publishing.
Answer: Use a sandbox or staging environment, run a series of test actions (create, update, check slug), and monitor responses. Verify data integrity by cross-checking records in both systems and review error logs in Uptics.
Answer: Troubleshooting resources include the integration docs, endpoint references, and support channels. Start with validating credentials, scopes, and endpoint mappings, then consult logs for errors and common status codes.
