To call the Blogs API, you’ll authenticate requests using your GHL API key with the correct scope (emails/builder.readonly or write as needed).
Xama Hub authenticates to GHL using a secure token flow, ensuring only approved apps can access blog content and related endpoints.
Endpoints include: GET emails/builder, POST emails/builder, POST /emails/builder/data, DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId, GET emails/schedule, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, GET /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /blogs/posts, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors.
Trigger: a new blog post is created in Blogs API.
Actions: create or update email templates and send a digest to subscribers.
Method/path: POST /blogs/posts (to publish) or PUT /blogs/posts/:postId (to update).
Key fields: postId, title, slug, status
Trigger: a blog post is updated in Blogs API.
Actions: refresh related email templates and resend updates to subscribers.
Method/path: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
Key fields: postId, templateId
Trigger: scheduled digest for the week.
Actions: assemble posts and distribute via a scheduled email builder.
Method/path: GET /blogs/posts or POST /emails/builder/data for digest
Key fields: scheduleId, frequency, postList
No code required to automate publishing, updating, and distributing blog content through email campaigns.
Unify content management and email automation in a single drag-and-drop workflow.
Prototype, test, and deploy automations quickly without developer help.
Key elements you’ll work with include endpoints, authentication, triggers, actions, and fields when wiring GHL to Xama Hub.
A specific URL in GHL that performs an action or returns data.
The process used to prove your app is allowed to call GHL APIs, typically via API keys or OAuth tokens.
A URL-friendly string identifying a post, usually derived from the title.
The data sent in an API request or returned in a response.
Create a workflow that detects new blog posts and automatically sends a digest to your subscriber list.
When a post is edited, refresh related email templates and notify readers.
Schedule upcoming posts and teaser emails to drive anticipation.
In the GHL developer settings, generate an API key with the required scope for emails and blogs.
Set up API key usage or OAuth tokens and assign the correct scopes for both APIs.
Use the Zapier App Connector to map endpoints, create actions, and run end-to-end tests.
No-code is possible with the Zapier App Connector. You can wire endpoints, triggers, and actions using drag-and-drop builders. This guide covers authentication and endpoint usage so you can start quickly without writing code. If you need more, you can extend automations with simple logic steps inside Zapier.
For a basic blog publish workflow, you’ll typically use endpoints like POST /blogs/posts to create posts, GET /blogs/posts to fetch posts, and GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slugs. Map fields such as title, slug, and content accordingly.
Authentication is handled via GHL API keys or OAuth tokens. Ensure your key has the correct scope (emails/builder.readonly or write) and attach it to requests. In Zapier, store the token securely and rotate keys periodically.
Yes. You can schedule weekly or daily digests by using a time-triggered action in Zapier and sending content through the Email Builder endpoints. Configure your cadence and recipient list in the connector.
GHL enforces rate limits on API calls. If you hit limits, implement exponential backoff and retry logic in your automations. Refer to GHL docs for current quotas and best practices.
Webhooks are supported where appropriate. Use them to trigger automations when posts are created, updated, or deleted, then route data to your Email Builder or blogs endpoints.
API endpoint details are available in the GHL developer docs and through the app connector mapping interface in Zapier. You’ll find method paths, parameters, and required scopes there.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
