Authenticate requests to the Blogs API with a GHL API key or OAuth token that includes access to blog endpoints. Keep tokens secure and limit scope to what is needed (read and write for posts, categories, and authors).
YoPrint is authenticated through the Zapier App Connector using OAuth 2.0 or API keys. Store credentials securely and grant access only to the required GHL endpoints for blogging.
Endpoints involved in the YoPrint → Blogs API flow include: GET emails/builder, GET /emails/builder, POST /blogs/posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, POST /blogs/post-update.write, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /blogs/categories, GET /blogs/authors, GET /emails/schedule, and related endpoints for emails and scheduling as needed.
Trigger: When a YoPrint draft is published, push a new blog post to the Blogs API.
Action: POST /blogs/posts with the article content, slug, category, and author mappings.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, categoryId, authorId, publishedAt
Trigger: A YoPrint article is updated.
Actions: PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to apply edits; or use POST /blogs/post-update.write for incremental updates.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, content, slug, updatedAt
Trigger: Generate a slug and verify its uniqueness before publishing.
Actions: GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to check slug; GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors to map taxonomy.
GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists
slug, categoryId, authorId
Automations run without custom code, reducing time to publish.
Consistent, SEO-friendly blog posts published to your site without manual steps.
Centralized data flow lets you analyze performance in one place.
A quick glossary of terms used in this guide: endpoints, triggers, actions, payload, slug, category, author, and authentication.
A defined URL on an API that performs a specific operation, such as creating or updating a blog post.
A URL-friendly string derived from a post title used in the final web address.
A standard protocol for granting apps limited access to an API without sharing passwords.
A lightweight callback mechanism where an event in one app notifies another app to take action.
Set up a flow where a new YoPrint draft automatically creates a blog post in Blogs API with metadata and category mapping.
When YoPrint drafts are updated, automatically push updates to existing Blog posts.
Use slug checks to ensure unique URLs and populate categories/authors for SEO.
Collect your GHL API key or OAuth credentials and YoPrint API keys in a secure vault.
Map YoPrint fields to Blogs API endpoints and set real-time or scheduled sync.
Run tests by creating a sample post and verifying slug, category, and author mappings.
No coding is required to connect YoPrint with Blogs API when using the Zapier App Connector. The setup provides pre-built triggers and actions that map YoPrint fields to Blogs API endpoints. If you prefer, you can also connect via a direct API integration using standard OAuth 2.0 credentials. Paragraph two: This flow lets non-developers publish and update blog posts automatically, keeping content fresh and aligned with YoPrint drafts.
Publishing requires at least creating a blog post via POST /blogs/posts and optionally setting slug, category, and author. Paragraph two: You may also configure automatic updates with PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to keep posts in sync with YoPrint.
Slug uniqueness is checked using GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists before publishing. Paragraph two: If the slug exists, modify the slug generation or map to a different slug to avoid conflicts.
Yes. Use PUT /blogs/posts/:postId or POST /blogs/post-update.write to push changes after publishing. Paragraph two: Thorough testing in a staging environment helps ensure mappings remain intact after updates.
Authentication is typically done with a GHL API key or OAuth token with access to blog endpoints, plus YoPrint app credentials in Zapier. Ensure tokens are stored securely. Paragraph two: Limit scope to required endpoints to minimize risk.
Sync frequency depends on your workflow: real-time via webhooks or scheduled checks (e.g., every 15 minutes). The endpoints support both. Paragraph two: Use real-time for time-sensitive content and scheduled sync for routine updates.
Best practices: keep metadata consistent, map authors, categories, and tags; generate SEO-friendly slugs; test thoroughly in a staging environment before going live. Paragraph two: Monitor performance metrics to optimize cadence and mappings over time.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
