POST /blogs/posts; GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists; POST emails/builder
title, content, slug, excerpt, authorId, categoryId, templateId
Trigger when a blog post is updated (PUT /blogs/posts/:postId) and reflect changes in the corresponding email template.
Update the blog post via API and refresh the associated email content or template fields to keep campaigns current.
PUT /blogs/posts/:postId; POST /blogs/posts; POST emails/builder
postId, title, content, slug, status, templateId
Trigger when a new category or author is added (GET blogs/categories, GET blogs/authors) and propagate these as tags or segments in email campaigns.
Action steps include mapping category/author data to CRM tags or segmentation fields in the Email Builder and applying them to future campaigns.
GET blogs/categories; GET blogs/authors; POST emails/builder
categoryId, categoryName, authorId, authorName, templateId

Centralized control in Zapier Manager allows quick updates to triggers, actions, and mappings as your blog strategy evolves.
Scalable automation across multiple blogs, categories, and audiences with consistent data formatting.
Definitions for core terms, endpoints, and data flows used to connect the Blogs API with Zapier Manager.
The process of proving identity to access GHL APIs and the Zapier app, typically via API keys or OAuth.
A specific URL path that performs a defined action on the server, such as listing posts or creating templates.
A URL-friendly string used to identify a post in the Blogs API, used for routing and SEO.
A callback URL that receives real-time data from an external service to trigger automations.
Whenever a new post is published, automatically generate a newsletter email and send it to subscribers via the Email Builder.
Create and publish cross-channel posts by feeding blog content into Zapier to push updates to social platforms or newsletters.
Map blog categories to CRM tags so campaigns target readers by interest when new posts publish.
In Zapier, add the Blogs API app and authorize access to your GHL account with the required scopes.
Define how blog post fields map to email template fields, including title, excerpt, content, slug, and categories.
Run test zaps to verify triggers and actions, then enable the workflow for production use.
Answer: You do not need to write code for standard integrations between Blogs API and Zapier Manager. The platform provides visual builders to configure triggers, actions, and data mappings. For advanced use cases, light scripting can be added within Zapier paths, but the base setup is no-code. Paragraph two covers verifying scopes and permissions to ensure the right data flows.
Answer: Use endpoints such as GET emails/builder for templates, POST emails/builder to create templates, POST /emails/builder/data to populate content, POST /blogs/posts to create posts, and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId to update. Paragraph two explains how to pair a trigger with a corresponding action in a single Zap.
Answer: Yes. When you update a blog post via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId, you can trigger a field update in the email template or re-run the email builder content. Paragraph two outlines mapping post fields to email fields to keep content in sync.
Answer: Authentication is typically done with an API key or OAuth. Ensure the scope matches your needs (emails/builder.readonly for reading templates, emails/builder.write for editing). Paragraph two details how to securely manage credentials in Zapier.
Answer: Use Zapier’s built-in test feature to simulate triggers and actions with sample data. Paragraph two recommends testing with both creation and update flows to catch mapping errors early.
Answer: Common pitfalls include mismatched data types, incorrect field mappings, and forgetting to refresh tokens. Paragraph two provides a quick checklist for validating data consistency and error handling.
Answer: Review no-code best practices such as starting with a simple trigger-action pair, validating data at each step, and using version control for zap changes. Paragraph two highlights resources for deeper learning and optimization.
