Obtain your API key from the GHL developer console, configure the required scopes for post-related actions, and securely store credentials in Rankr. Use token-based auth and rotate credentials regularly.
Rankr uses a token-based approach to authenticate to the Surveys API. Store tokens securely, refresh before expiry, and keep rotation logs to maintain a clean access trail.
Key endpoints include: 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. These cover create, update, delete, and modify post resources for connected social channels.
Trigger: when a new post is created in Rankr, publish to configured social channels via the Surveys API.
Actions: build payload with content and media, set schedule if needed, and call POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
Required: locationId, content. Optional: scheduleTime, mediaUrl, postStatus.
Trigger: edits detected or scheduled updates.
Actions: PATCH fields such as content, media, or status to reflect changes.
PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Required: locationId, id. Optional: content, mediaUrl, status.
Trigger: removal of outdated or deprecated posts.
Actions: DELETE the post or mark as archived for historical reference.
DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Required: locationId, id.
No coding required—use guided setup to connect endpoints and automate posting workflows quickly.
Faster time-to-value with reusable templates, triggers, and centralized configuration for all connected channels.
Easier maintenance and updates through a single integration layer that scales with your needs.
A concise glossary of terms used in this guide and how each element connects to the integration workflow.
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to perform a defined action against the GHL API.
The process of validating identity and granting access tokens to call API resources.
HTTP methods used to create (POST), replace or update (PUT), or modify partial resources (PATCH).
An identifier for a specific social channel location within GHL where posts are published.
Schedule daily prompts to social channels using the POST endpoint, with content pulled from survey triggers.
Push new responses into Rankr dashboards via API triggers to keep data fresh and actionable.
Use key fields to segment audiences and tailor posts to improve engagement and relevance.
Register your app in the GHL developer portal and generate an API key or token with the required scopes.
Add the essential endpoints to Rankr settings, map fields, and set up authentication.
Run tests, verify responses, monitor logs, and deploy to production with continuous monitoring.
Most basic connections in Rankr to the Surveys API require no custom code. The guided setup walks you through creating and mapping endpoints, and you can leverage templates for common workflows. For advanced automation, you can extend logic with conditional triggers without writing server-side code.
Authentication typically uses API keys or tokens issued by the GHL developer portal. Keep tokens secure, rotate them regularly, and scope them to only the permissions you need. Rankr provides a secure vault for credentials and a retry strategy to handle transient authentication failures.
Yes. You can configure multiple endpoints such as create, update, and delete within one workflow. Use appropriate HTTP methods for each action and ensure your payloads align with the endpoint requirements. Centralized error handling helps manage retries across endpoints.
Test the connection using sandbox or test locations, inspect response bodies, and verify status codes. Use mock data to validate payload structures, then perform end-to-end tests with real data before going live.
Rate limits vary by endpoint and plan. Plan for bursts by implementing exponential backoff and retry policies. Monitor API usage through Rankr dashboards to stay within limits.
API documentation is available in the GHL developer portal and within Rankr’s integration guide. Use the endpoint list, parameter references, and example requests to accelerate setup.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
