Authorize the Surveys API in your Zapier App Connector account using the GHL credentials and selecting the requested scope: socialplanner/post.write.
In Zapier, create a connection to the Surveys API and grant permission for the app to post on your behalf.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts — Create a new social post on a given location.\nPUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Update an existing post by ID.\nDELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Delete a post by ID.\nPATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Partially update fields on a post by ID.
Trigger: a new survey submission in Surveys API creates a draft post in your social calendar via locationId.
Actions: POST to create the post, mapping fields from the survey (title, content, image) to the post body.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
Key fields: locationId, content, scheduling info, status.
Trigger: survey updates modify the associated post content or metadata.
Actions: PUT and PATCH to update content and metadata.
PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Key fields: locationId, id.
Trigger: when a campaign ends or a survey is deprecated triggers deletion of the related post.
Actions: DELETE to remove the post.
DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Key fields: locationId, id.

Authorize the Surveys API in Zapier App Connector by providing your GHL credentials and selecting the social posting scope.
Add endpoints for POST, PUT, DELETE, and PATCH to manage posts.
Run tests, verify data flow, and deploy automation to monitor posting.
To use this integration, ensure the Surveys API scope includes socialplanner/post.write. In Zapier, connect the Surveys API and authorize the app to post on your behalf. You may also need to grant permissions for read access depending on your setup. This ensures the app can create and modify posts as needed. The exact steps depend on your account configuration, but the core requirement is proper OAuth2/API key provisioning and consent for the post.write scope.
Yes. The endpoints support creating, updating, and deleting posts, which lets you publish to multiple channels. You can map different post bodies to each platform. If you need multi-channel posting, you can chain automations in Zapier to route the same data to several endpoints.
Authenticate by selecting the Surveys API connection in Zapier and providing the GHL credentials. The app uses OAuth2 or API keys depending on configuration to authorize requests. After authorization, test the connection to confirm the required scope (socialplanner/post.write) is active.
If an API call fails, use Zapier’s retry logic and inspect the error response for details. Verify the endpoint, HTTP method, and payload structure. Adjust mappings or credentials if necessary and re-run the test.
There may be rate limits imposed by the Surveys API. Plan automations accordingly and consider batching requests where possible. Implement exponential backoff and retries in Zapier to handle transient limits gracefully.
Yes, you can delete posts via the DELETE endpoint. Ensure you have valid locationId and post id. Implement safeguards such as confirmation steps or archival instead of permanent deletion when appropriate.
To test, run a dry run in Zapier, simulate survey events, and verify the resulting posts. Check logs, mappings, and endpoints for accuracy, then deploy to production once you’re satisfied with the results.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
