To authorize, generate a dedicated API key or OAuth token for the Social Media API in your GHL account and grant the Zapier App Connector the requested scopes.
In Zapier, connect the Zapier App Connector to your GHL account using the provided client credentials, selecting the Social Media API as the connected service.

Key fields: locationId, postId, accountId, and mediaUrl.
Trigger: CSV file upload or update triggers a batch of posts.
Actions: Map CSV columns to post fields, schedule posts, and track publish results.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv for uploading CSV; GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv to list; POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/set-accounts to map accounts.
Key fields: locationId, csvId, accountIds, postTemplate.
Trigger: After any post or on a schedule, pull a snapshot for reporting.
Actions: Retrieve /snapshots, summarize engagement metrics, export findings.
GET /snapshots, GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/accounts
Key fields: locationId, metricType, dateRange.

Overview of elements and processes you’ll encounter when using the integration.
GHL API is the official interface that lets you access resources and trigger actions within the GHL platform using programmatic requests.
CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a lightweight file format used to import or export lists of posts, accounts, and scheduling data.
A webhook is a callback URL that notifies your app of events in real time.
An endpoint is a specific URL in an API that performs a defined action, such as creating a post or fetching a report.
Automatically collect top posts from networks and publish a digest across channels using Zapier.
Upload an influencer CSV and create scheduled posts to their networks.
Pull snapshots and alert your team when engagement dips.
Connect the Social Media API in GHL and authorize Zapier App Connector to access your data.
Map GHL fields like locationId, csvId, postId to the corresponding API inputs.
Run tests in Zapier to ensure posts, CSVs, and snapshots flow correctly before going live.
The integration accesses only the data you authorize in GHL, including accounts, posts, media, and scheduling information. It does not read unrelated data. You control what is connected and what is shared. The app follows least-privilege principles to minimize exposure. Any data transmitted between GHL, Zapier App Connector, and social networks is protected by standard encryption and OAuth scopes.
No traditional coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a no-code interface to map fields, set triggers, and configure actions. If you need advanced logic, you can add simple filters and multi-step zaps without writing code. For custom cases, you can extend with optional scripting or webhooks in advanced flows.
Yes. CSV workflows are supported for importing schedules, accounts, and posts. You can upload a CSV, map its columns to GHL fields, and then run batch posts or analyses. CSV management also enables reuse across campaigns and teams.
The integration respects API rate limits and implements automatic retries with exponential backoff. If a request fails due to a transient error, the connector will retry after a short delay and surface the failure in logs for troubleshooting.
Authentication uses OAuth2 where supported and API keys where required. All data is transmitted over HTTPS and tokens are rotated regularly. Access can be revoked at any time from the GHL or Zapier app settings.
Yes. You can schedule posts across multiple accounts by creating a single zap with multi-account mapping. The connector handles per-account posting while aggregating results in a unified report.
Activity logs and audit trails are accessible within the Zapier task history and GHL activity records. You can review which posts were created, updated, or deleted and when actions occurred.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
