Frequently Asked Questions

What endpoints are available for the Social Media API in this connection?

Yes. The Social Media API endpoints include POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv for uploading posting schedules and GET /snapshots for performance checks. Use POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/set-accounts to map accounts to specific posts. For guidance, start with a test locationId and a sample CSV containing columns like locationId, postTime, accountId, and content. After uploading, you can retrieve the CSV and postings with GET endpoints to confirm the data was saved.

To authenticate, use the OAuth flow between GHL and the Zapier App Connector. In the Zapier app, configure client credentials and authorize the connection. Once authorized, Zapier can make requests to endpoints such as GET /snapshots or POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/csv on your behalf. If your app uses refresh tokens, ensure token refresh is handled.

Yes, bulk delete is supported via POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/bulk-delete or DELETE endpoints for specific posts. Specify the post IDs to remove and test with a small batch before full cleanup. The API will respond with success details or error messages to guide adjustments.

No coding is required to set up the integration. The Zapier App Connector provides triggers and actions mapped to GHL endpoints. Configure data flows, scheduling, and account mappings using the visual editor and prebuilt actions.

You can sync accounts, CSV schedules, and post results. Key data includes accounts under locationId, CSV metadata, and post snapshots. Endpoints give access to accounts, csv, and snapshots which you can pull into Zapier for reporting and automation.

Test the connection by enabling a test run in Zapier and using the snapshots endpoint to verify data after a sample post. Create a temporary location, upload a test CSV, and use the get endpoints to verify responses before going live.

API rate limits and quotas are defined by your GHL plan; you will see limits on calls per minute or per hour. Monitor responses and implement backoff handling in your automations. The documentation outlines per endpoint quotas and usage guidelines.
