Authenticate to the Blogs API using your API keys and the required scope emails/builder.readonly to view and manage email templates.
Xero uses OAuth 2.0 to authorize access. Have your app credentials ready and request the proper scopes for data access.
GET emails/builder; GET emails/builder.write; POST emails/builder; POST /emails/builder/data; DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId; emails/schedule.readonly; GET emails/schedule; blogs/post.write; POST /blogs/posts; blogs/post-update.write; PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; blogs/check-slug.readonly; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; blogs/category.readonly; GET /blogs/categories; blogs/author.readonly; GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: new or updated Xero records should generate or refresh an email template in Blogs API.
GET emails/builder
Required fields include locationId and templateId for the templates
Trigger: Xero events to publish blog posts via blogs/posts
Actions: create or update posts; adjust slug; tag with author
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: postId, title, slug, content
Trigger: scheduled times to post updates or newsletters
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: postId, publishDate, status
No code setup to map data about invoices to blog content

Faster time to value with ready to use endpoints and scopes
Definitions of commonly used terms and how data flows between Xero and Blogs API
A specific URI and HTTP method used to access a resource in an API
A callback mechanism to receive real time notifications from a service
The process of proving identity to access protected resources using tokens or keys
A piece of content published on a blog channel
Automatically generate blog content from Xero invoices and update templates
Publish a weekly blog digest from Xero data
Create a resource library of accounting tips pulled from Xero resources
Create API credentials for Blogs API and authorize with scope emails/builder.readonly
Enter Xero app credentials and grant access
Run tests against key endpoints and monitor for errors before going live
You do not need to code to set up this integration. The platform provides no code builders and prebuilt endpoints. You can configure triggers and actions using the Zapier app connector. For more advanced scenarios you can add custom fields or webhooks.
The integration uses a subset of endpoints focused on emails, blogs and posts. You can enable specific endpoints by selecting the required scopes and connecting the GHL Blogs API to Xero.
Authentication is done via API keys and OAuth for Xero. You will generate credentials in the GHL dashboard and authorize through the app connector.
Yes, you can test in a sandbox or with draft posts before going live. The endpoints include check slug and preview options.
Yes, you can map invoice data to blog post templates. You will need to define mappings between Xero fields and blog post fields.
Latency depends on endpoint and data volume. Typical near real time for small data and longer for batch processes.
If you hit rate limits, adjust polling cadence, use batching, and apply backoff strategies.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
