Authentication uses API keys or OAuth tokens issued by the GHL developer console. Start by creating an app in GHL, requesting the Blogs API scope and the emails builder read only scope, then securely store the credentials in Vitally.
In Vitally you connect via the Integrations area. Enter the client ID and secret or paste the API key, then test the connection. The scope required for this integration mirrors the GHL setup and should be kept secure.

Create a GHL app or use an existing one, generate client ID and secret or API key, and note the required scopes
Open Vitally Integrations, enter credentials, select the Blogs API scope, and test the connection
Map endpoints to Vitally fields and run a test to confirm data flows correctly between systems
In most cases you do not need to write code to connect Vitally to the Blogs API. The integration leverages Zapier and the GHL API endpoints to automate data flows through a no code setup. Start by creating a GHL app, configure OAuth or API keys, and then connect these credentials in Vitally. Once configured, you can map fields and test data transfers with a dedicated test endpoint. If you are comfortable with basic API concepts, you can fine tune mappings for precise behavior.
For a basic sync you typically need endpoints related to email templates and blog posts. This includes GET emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, POST /blogs/posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId along with related slug checks and author/category lookups. After connecting, map fields such as templateId, postId, slug, and authorId to ensure data aligns across systems.
Yes. Vitally supports testing in a sandbox or staging mode through the integration panel. Use test credentials and the test endpoints to validate authentication, data mapping, and end-to-end flows before going live. Review endpoint responses and adjust your field mappings as needed during the test phase.
Data field mapping is performed in Vitally by selecting corresponding GHL fields for each Vitally field. Typical mappings include templateId to template identifiers, postId and slug for blog content, and authorId for author associations. You can customize the mappings to fit your content taxonomy and campaign logic.
If authentication fails, double check the credentials in GHL and Vitally, confirm the correct OAuth scopes or API key permissions, and re-test the connection. Ensure the client secret, redirect URL, and token endpoint are correctly configured. If issues persist, rotate credentials and try again.
The required scopes depend on what you want to access. For this integration, ensure the Blogs API scope and emails builder read only or appropriate write scopes are granted. Keep scopes minimal and rotate credentials periodically to maintain security.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
