Use the access token provided by your GHL account and attach it to requests from Zapier. Scope: socialplanner/tag.readonly will govern what you can fetch.
In Zapier, connect the GHL Users API by selecting the Zapier app, entering your GHL credentials, and granting the requested scope. This workflow relies on the GHL token flow and includes the tag.readonly permission.
– GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags — retrieve tags for a location – POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details — fetch tag details – socialplanner/statistics.readonly — read analytics – POST /social-media-posting/statistics — request statistics
Trigger: a new post draft requires tags, so fetch tags for the given location.
Actions: call GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags to retrieve tags, then apply relevant tags to posts in Zapier.
GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags
locationId, tags
Trigger: new statistics data is available for your locations.
Actions: POST /social-media-posting/statistics to generate reports, then push summaries to your dashboard.
POST /social-media-posting/statistics
locationId, dateRange, metrics
Trigger: on demand to fetch tag details for deeper insights.
Actions: POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details to retrieve details, then map fields into Zapier.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details
locationId, tagId, details
Automate tagging and analytics without writing code.
Orchestrate workflows with triggers and actions in a few clicks.
Connect multiple apps and data sources through Zapier to scale your processes.
Key concepts include endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, and data mapping that drive the GHL–Zapier integration.
A specific API route (URL and method) used to access a particular GHL API function.
An event in Zapier that starts a workflow when new data appears in GHL.
An operation performed in response to a trigger within Zapier, such as creating or updating data.
Permissions granted to access specific data within GHL.
Automatically fetch and apply tags to posts to improve discovery and engagement.
Pull statistics data into a dashboard to monitor engagement trends.
Enrich tags with extra metadata to enhance search and segmentation.
Connect the GHL Users API in Zapier by providing your GHL credentials and approving the requested scope.
Select the endpoints you need (GET tags, POST tags/details, and statistics) and map fields in Zapier.
Test your zap, fix any mapping issues, then turn on automation.
You can use GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags to fetch tags for a given location. This endpoint helps power tagging workflows in your posts. Additionally, POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details returns detailed information about a specific tag, enabling richer categorization. For analytics, socialplanner/statistics.readonly provides read access to aggregated metrics, while POST /social-media-posting/statistics can be used to request updated statistics for reporting.
No extensive coding is required. The Zapier App Connector handles the glue between GHL and your workflows. You’ll configure authentication, select endpoints, and map fields within Zapier’s interface. Basic understanding of endpoints and data fields is helpful, but you can build powerful automations with clicks rather than code.
Reading tags requires the tag.readonly scope in GHL. Ensure your OAuth/token token includes this permission so Zapier can retrieve tags and tag details. If you need write access, you must request additional scopes from your GHL admin.
Authentication occurs in two places: obtain a GHL access token and then connect that token in the Zapier GHL app. In Zapier, authorize the GHL app, grant the requested scopes (including tag.readonly), and bind the token to your Zapier workflow. Every API call should include the token for authorization.
Yes. The endpoints expose tagging and analytics data that you can pull into dashboards, reports, or BI tools via Zapier. Use the statistics endpoints to monitor engagement, trends, and performance over time.
locationId identifies a specific location (e.g., a social channel or location in GHL) whose posts and tags you want to manage. It scopes requests to a particular place, preventing cross-location data mixing.
Documentation for the GHL Users API and Zapier App Connector is available in your GHL developer portal and Zapier’s app documentation. For detailed endpoint specs, authentication flows, and field mappings, consult the official guides and the API reference.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
