Authenticate with Surveys API using OAuth 2.0 or an API key. Create credentials in the GHL developer portal and securely store them in Zapier. This ensures that all requests to the endpoints are authorized and auditable.
Zapier App Connector authenticates to Surveys API via OAuth 2.0 or API keys. Configure the connection in Zapier, authorize access, and verify the link with a test trigger and action.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts — Create a new post PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Update a post DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Remove a post PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Modify a post Note: Additional endpoints are documented in the API reference.
Trigger: When a new post is created in Surveys API, Zapier can publish it to connected social networks.
Actions: Create post, publish immediately, or schedule for future release.
Example method path: POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
Key fields: locationId, content, schedule_time, media, status
Trigger: Modify a scheduled post or adjust its publish time
Actions: Update post content or schedule; use PATCH to change timing
PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Key fields: locationId, id, schedule_time, content
Trigger: Remove a post from one or more networks
Actions: Delete post
DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Key fields: locationId, id
Automate publishing without writing code. Create workflows that move data between Surveys API and social networks.
Build end-to-end campaigns with triggers, filters, and actions across apps.
Monitor, log, and audit posts with centralized dashboards.
This glossary covers endpoints, authentication, triggers, and resources to help you design effective automations between Surveys API and the Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to interact with a resource in Surveys API.
The process for verifying identity and permissions (OAuth 2.0 or API keys) to access endpoints.
An event that starts a workflow in Zapier when data changes.
A data object managed by the API, such as a social post.
Create a calendar-driven automation that schedules and publishes posts from Surveys data to social networks via Zapier.
Publish the same content across several networks from a single survey item with conditional routing.
Route drafts for approval before going live, then push approved posts to all connected networks.
Obtain API keys or OAuth credentials from Surveys API and configure them in Zapier.
Authorize the connection in Zapier and test the trigger and action.
Create Zap templates using the endpoints to publish, update, or delete posts.
GHL and Zapier authenticate securely using OAuth 2.0 or API keys. When you connect, you grant Zapier access to your Surveys API account, and tokens are used to authorize requests to the endpoints. If a token expires or is revoked, you can refresh or re-authenticate from the connected accounts page. This flow keeps actions auditable and simplifies management across workflows. Always store credentials securely and follow best practices for rotating keys and tokens to minimize exposure.
Posting endpoints include POST for creating posts and PATCH/PUT/DELETE for updating or removing them. The primary posting action uses POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts to publish new content. Updates can be done with PUT or PATCH to modify content or schedule, and DELETE removes posts from the feed. These endpoints enable flexible, event-driven automation in Zapier.
Yes. You can update post content or reschedule after publishing by using PUT or PATCH on /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id. Some networks allow edits after publish; the ability depends on the target social platform. In Zapier, you can design a workflow that updates the post and re-publishes if needed.
If a call fails, Zapier can retry with exponential backoff. Ensure the integration has proper error handling and logging. Implement alerting in case of repeated failures and consider using conditional logic to avoid duplicate posts.
Required fields typically include locationId and content. Optional fields may include schedule_time, media, and status. The endpoint you choose (POST, PATCH, etc.) determines which fields are mandatory. Always validate inputs in Zapier before sending to Surveys API.
No extensive coding is required. The integration is designed for no-code automation via Zapier. You configure triggers, actions, and maps between Surveys API fields and your connected apps. Some familiarity with API concepts is helpful but not required.
API rate limits depend on your Surveys API plan. Check the developer portal for current quotas and per-endpoint limits. If you hit limits, consider batching, staggering posts, or increasing your plan. Documentation also covers retry guidance and best practices.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
