To begin, obtain your GHL Social Media API credentials and securely store tokens in Zapier. Use the appropriate OAuth flow or API keys to authorize calls from Zapier to the Social Media API.
In the Zapier App Connector, configure OAuth or API key-based access so the connector can securely call the Social Media API. Ensure the app has the required scopes for the endpoints you plan to use.
Endpoint 1: POST /bulk-disable-saas/:companyId; Endpoint 2: snapshots.readonly; Endpoint 3: GET /snapshots; Endpoint 4: socialplanner/account.readonly; Endpoint 5: GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/accounts; Endpoint 6: socialplanner/account.write; Endpoint 7: DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/accounts/:id; Endpoint 8: socialplanner/csv.readonly; Endpoint 9: GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv; Endpoint 10: GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:id; Endpoint 11: socialplanner/csv.write; Endpoint 12: POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv; Endpoint 13: POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/set-accounts; Endpoint 14: DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:id; Endpoint 15: PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:id; Endpoint 16: POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/bulk-delete; Endpoint 17: DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:csvId/post/:postId
Trigger when a new CSV is uploaded or a batch of posts needs to be published across locations.
Actions include creating posts, updating statuses, and deleting posts in bulk based on the CSV data.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv
locationId, csvId, postId (as applicable per operation)
Trigger on account changes within Social Media API (accounts added, updated, or removed).
Actions to read accounts, set accounts, and manage accounts across platforms.
GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/accounts
locationId, id
Trigger when a CSV is created or updated.
Actions to upload, read, update, and delete CSVs.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv
locationId, csvId
Automate posting, scheduling, and approvals without writing code.
Centralize data flows with CSVs, accounts, and post data across tools.
Reduce manual errors and accelerate go-live with no-code automation.
This glossary explains endpoints, triggers, actions, and data fields used when integrating Social Media API with the Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an operation against a service.
An event in Zapier that starts a workflow.
An operation Zapier performs in response to a trigger.
Comma-separated values used to bulk upload data or define records for processing.
Automatically publish content from a CSV to multiple accounts on a schedule, coordinating timing and approvals.
Use bulk-delete to remove outdated or failed posts based on age or status rules.
Keep account lists aligned between GHL and your marketing stack with set-accounts and synchronization workflows.
Connect the Social Media API to the Zapier App Connector by completing the OAuth flow or API key setup and selecting the endpoints you plan to use.
Map fields such as locationId, csvId, and postId to the corresponding Zapier fields and save your mappings.
Run tests to confirm triggers and actions work as expected, resolve any mapping issues, and enable your automation.
GHL Social Media API supports OAuth and API key-based authentication. Choose the method your organization uses and store tokens securely in Zapier’s vault or your secret manager. If authentication errors occur, re-authenticate, rotate credentials, and verify that your app has the required scopes (e.g., saas/company.write) to access the endpoints you plan to use.
The integration exposes 17 endpoints covering accounts, CSVs, posts, and bulk actions. Not every workflow needs all endpoints, so pick only what you need and reference the ENDPOINTLIST for details. Remember to include required path parameters like locationId and IDs when wiring triggers and actions together.
Yes. You can upload CSVs, read them, and perform actions on posts or accounts via the CSV endpoints. This enables bulk publishing and management without manual steps. Always validate your CSV format before upload and ensure field mappings are correct for reliable processing.
Usage limits depend on your Zapier plan and the Social Media API quotas. Monitor call volume and batch requests when possible to stay within limits. If you anticipate high volume, stagger requests and leverage bulk endpoints to reduce overhead.
Data mapping involves aligning fields such as locationId, csvId, postId, and account IDs between GHL and Zapier. Use clear field names and test mappings in a sandbox workflow. This helps ensure data flows correctly during triggers and actions.
Error handling surfaces HTTP status codes, messages, and retry guidance. Use Zapier task history and logs to diagnose failures. If issues persist, review credentials, endpoint permissions, and ensure required scopes are granted.
No-code automation is possible with prebuilt Zapier templates. Connect the Social Media API endpoints and configure triggers and actions without coding. For advanced customization, you can add code steps or webhooks, but the core flows are designed to be no-code friendly.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
