Answer: You can authenticate using API keys or OAuth tokens, depending on your security requirements. In Zapier, create a connection by selecting the Blogs API app and entering your credentials. Test the connection to confirm access to endpoints like POST /blogs/posts and GET /blogs/categories.
Answer: No code is required for many tasks. Zapier’s interface lets you set triggers and actions to automate blog publishing, updates, and categorization. Some scenarios may require lightweight scripting if you need custom data transforms.
Answer: Essential endpoints for publishing include POST /blogs/posts to create posts, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs, and GET /blogs/categories to assign categories.
Answer: Use GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug availability. If it exists, you can update the post instead of creating a new one.
Answer: Yes, you can schedule posts by including a publish_time or using a scheduling endpoint, depending on your workflow.
Answer: Manage authors via GET /blogs/authors and categories via GET /blogs/categories. You can assign IDs when creating or updating posts.
Answer: The endpoint list evolves; check the endpoint catalog in your GHL API documentation for the latest available routes and versions.
