To access Blogs API from Rankr, generate an API token scoped to the required endpoints (emails/builder and blogs endpoints) and use it in your requests. Store tokens securely and rotate them regularly.
Rankr authenticates with GHL using API tokens. Keep tokens secret, use secure storage, and refresh them on a schedule.
Used endpoints include: 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: edits in Rankr automatically update GHL emails
Actions: create, update and delete email templates in GHL; pull builder data into Rankr
GET emails/builder
Key fields: templateId locationId userId status
Trigger: schedule in Rankr publishes blog posts via the Blogs API
Actions: post creation, publish, and category mapping to Rankr tags
POST /blogs/posts
Key fields: postId slug status publishDate
Trigger: pull analytics from GHL to Rankr on demand
Actions: fetch posts, fetch categories, fetch authors
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
Key fields: slug postId authorId
Automate workflows without writing code.
Visual builders let you map data between systems.
Faster time to value with ready-made templates.
This glossary defines the core elements and processes you will use to connect GHL with Rankr.
A secret key used to authenticate calls to the GHL API.
A specific URL path that performs a function in the GHL API.
The subset of endpoints and actions a token can access.
A callback URL that GHL can call to notify Rankr of events.
Send reminders to review drafts and publish on schedule.
Map GHL blog categories to Rankr tags to improve discovery.
Use performance data to optimize topics and timing.
Create a Blogs API token with the required scopes and attach Rankr to the app.
Connect the endpoints from the ENDPOINTLIST into Rankr and set triggers.
Run tests, verify data flows, and enable monitoring.
Start by testing the endpoints listed to verify data flow between Blogs API and Rankr. Authenticate with a token that has the correct scopes, then perform a simple GET or POST to confirm responses. Review any errors, adjust scopes or endpoints as needed. Finally, enable monitoring to catch issues early. These steps help ensure a safe, incremental rollout while you validate connectivity.
No coding is required for basic integrations; you can use Rankr’s visual workflow builder to connect GHL endpoints. If you need advanced data transforms, small scripts or webhooks can be added as needed in a low-code fashion.
Token security is essential. Store tokens in a secret manager, apply least privilege scopes, and rotate tokens regularly. Do not expose tokens in client code or logs. Use environment separation (dev, staging, prod) to minimize risk.
Yes. Use sandbox or test tokens and a staging environment to validate flows before going live. Simulate real-world scenarios with mock data.
Rotation guidelines: create a new token with the updated scopes, update Rankr configurations, then revoke the old token after verifying the new token works. Schedule rotations to minimize disruption. Automating rotation via secret management tooling is recommended.
Readonly scopes allow retrieving data, while write scopes permit creating, updating, or deleting data. For safety, grant write access only to endpoints that require it and use readonly for data retrieval where possible.
Logs can be viewed in Rankr’s integration dashboard and in GHL API call logs if enabled. Set up alerting to notify you of errors or failed requests.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
