How to connect Zapier App Connector to Social Media API

Bridge the Social Media API with Zapier App Connector to automate posting, scheduling, and analytics across your accounts.

Steps to connect the Social Media API with the Zapier App Connector

This guide walks you through authenticating, selecting endpoints, and wiring up triggers and actions between the Social Media API (GHL API) and the Zapier App Connector to automate your social workflows.

Authentication for the Social Media API

Use API keys or OAuth tokens provided by the Social Media API to securely authorize connections from Zapier. Store credentials securely and rotate keys on a regular cadence.

Authentication for the Zapier App Connector

Zapier supports OAuth 2.0 and token-based authentication for connected apps. Ensure you grant the necessary scopes (including saas/company.write) and keep tokens confidential.

Key Endpoints Used in this Integration

Endpoints you may use with the Social Media API (GHL): – POST /bulk-disable-saas/:companyId – snapshots.readonly – GET /snapshots – socialplanner/account.readonly – GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/accounts – socialplanner/account.write – DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/accounts/:id – socialplanner/csv.readonly – GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv – GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:id – socialplanner/csv.write – POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv – POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/set-accounts – DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:id – PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:id – POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/bulk-delete – DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv/:csvId/post/:postId Note: These endpoints cover authentication, accounts, CSVs, posts, and snapshots. Use the ones relevant to your Zap workflows.

Top 3 connections between Social Media API and Zapier App Connector

1) Bulk posting with CSV management

Trigger when new content is ready in Social Media posting or when a CSV is updated, initiating batch post creation across accounts.

Actions include creating posts in bulk, updating CSV records, and cleaning up old posts via the bulk-delete endpoint.

POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/bulk-delete

locationId, csvId, postId, accountId

locationId, snapshotId

No-code benefits of connecting Social Media API with Zapier App Connector

Automate repetitive publishing tasks without writing a line of code.

Coordinate multi-account campaigns from a single Zap, reducing manual setup.

Gain actionable insights with automated analytics from snapshots to optimize your strategy.

Key Terms and Glossary

This glossary defines terms like endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, and data flow to help you design reliable automations.

API endpoint

Authentication

How your app proves identity to the GHL Social Media API—typically via OAuth 2.0 or API keys.

CSV

Comma-separated values file used to import/export data like accounts, posts, and schedules.

Webhook

Upload a CSV of post content and schedule it across accounts using the CSV endpoints.

3) Analytics-driven optimization with snapshots

Use snapshots to pull performance data and adjust posting cadence and content strategy.

Three steps to connect Social Media API with Zapier App Connector

Step 1: Connect your Social Media API to Zapier

In Zapier, select the Social Media API (GHL) and authorize using the provided API key or OAuth credentials, selecting the Social Media API as the API Name.

Step 2: Configure endpoints, triggers, and actions

Map endpoints such as GET /snapshots, GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/accounts, and POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv into your Zap workflows, then define triggers and actions.

Step 3: Test, deploy, and monitor

Run end-to-end tests, verify data flowing correctly, and turn on automation with monitoring alerts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What endpoints are available for the Social Media API integration with Zapier?

Endpoints expose resources like accounts, CSVs, posts, and snapshots. They are accessed via security-authenticated requests. In Zapier, you’ll configure triggers and actions around these endpoints to automate workflows. If you need examples, reference the 17 listed endpoints and their methods in the integration guide.

To authenticate, use OAuth 2.0 or an API key provided by the Social Media API. In Zapier, create a connected app, paste credentials securely, and authorize the required scopes such as saas/company.write. Keep credentials secure and rotate them regularly.

Yes. Zapier can perform CSV operations, such as uploading CSV files, reading CSVs, and mapping them to endpoints. Use endpoints like POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv and GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv to manage data. You can drive multi-step workflows by combining CSV actions with posting endpoints.

Be mindful of rate limits and batching. Use retries with exponential backoff and design idempotent steps where possible. Cache data when appropriate and stagger requests to avoid bursts.

Snapshots provide read-only analytics. Use GET /snapshots to fetch performance data and integrate into dashboards or reports. Pair snapshots with triggers to refresh analytics on a schedule or event.

Yes. You can configure workflows to operate across multiple locations by including locationId in your requests and by mapping location-specific data in Zapier. This lets you scale automations as your account footprint grows.

Endpoint paths and parameters are documented in this page. For quick reference, use the endpoint list above and example paths such as GET /snapshots and POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv. Always validate required fields like locationId and IDs for accounts, CSVs, and posts.
