To authenticate the Surveys API in GHL, generate an API key in your Surveys API console and grant the Zapier App Connector the socialplanner/post.write scope. Copy the key into Zapier when prompted.
In Zapier, connect the App Connector and authorize with the API key and required scopes. Use the provided authentication method to establish a secure link.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts; PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id; DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id; PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id. Endpoints 5–17 exist for additional post management and updates.
Trigger: when a new or updated post is created in the Surveys API, send a Postscript post via Zapier.
Actions: POST to /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts to create a new Postscript post, including content, media, and scheduling.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
Key fields: locationId, id (returned), message, media, schedule_time
Trigger: post content updates in Surveys API.
Actions: PATCH to update message, media, or schedule.
PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Fields: locationId, id, message, status, schedule_time
Trigger: deletion request from Surveys API.
Actions: DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id to remove a post.
DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Fields: locationId, id
No coding required; connect endpoints via triggers and actions in a visual workflow.
Seamless data flow from GHL to Postscript with consistent field mappings.
Fast testing and deployment using Zapier’s built-in test tools.
Overview of the key elements: API endpoints, triggers, actions, method paths, and data fields used to manage social posts in Postscript via the Surveys API.
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to perform an action on a server.
An event that starts an automation flow.
A task performed as a result of a trigger.
The full endpoint path including HTTP method and route.
When a survey collects responses, automatically create a Postscript post via the Surveys API.
Schedule regular updates to keep audiences engaged.
Propagate same content to multiple social channels through Postscript.
Create an API key in Surveys API, install the Zapier App Connector, and grant scopes (socialplanner/post.write).
Link POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE endpoints to corresponding fields like locationId and id.
Run tests in Zapier, verify Postscript posts appear as intended, then deploy.
The Surveys API provides endpoints to manage social posts in Postscript through the GHL connector. You can create, update, and delete posts from a single workflow using the Endpoint1-4 as a starting point. This keeps content fresh across platforms. You control post timing, content, and media with consistent field mappings and validation to ensure posts render correctly in Postscript, with testing before going live.
No-code automation is possible with the Zapier App Connector. You can connect the Surveys API to Postscript without writing code by wiring triggers and actions in a visual workflow. If you need more advanced logic, you can add conditional steps in Zapier or use webhooks, but the core flow remains code-free.
The primary endpoints used to manage social posts are POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE on /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts and /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id. These endpoints enable creating, updating, and removing Postscript posts and support field mapping for locationId, id, and post content.
Authenticate by generating an API key in Surveys API and granting the Zapier App Connector the required scopes. Then connect the key in Zapier and validate the connection with a test run. Keep your API key secure and rotate it periodically as part of best practices.
Yes. Map fields such as locationId and id within Zapier’s action configuration. Use consistent field names across endpoints to ensure data integrity and predictable Postscript posts. Refer to the endpoint docs for exact field options and required vs. optional fields.
Yes. Use Zapier’s test runner to simulate triggers and actions before going live. This helps verify that posts appear correctly in Postscript and that scheduling and content render as expected. Document any test cases and results for future reference.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
