How to connect Ghost and Microsoft SQL Server
Create a New Scenario to Connect Ghost and Microsoft SQL Server
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Ghost, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Ghost or Microsoft SQL Server will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Ghost or Microsoft SQL Server, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Ghost Node
Select the Ghost node from the app selection panel on the right.

Authenticate Microsoft SQL Server
Now, click the Microsoft SQL Server node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Microsoft SQL Server settings. Authentication allows you to use Microsoft SQL Server through Latenode.
Configure the Ghost and Microsoft SQL Server Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Ghost and Microsoft SQL Server Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Ghost, Microsoft SQL Server, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Ghost and Microsoft SQL Server integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Ghost and Microsoft SQL Server (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Ghost and Microsoft SQL Server
Ghost + Microsoft SQL Server + Slack: When a new post is published in Ghost, the post details are saved to a Microsoft SQL Server database. A summary of the new post, including the title and a link, is then sent to a designated Slack channel.
Microsoft SQL Server + Ghost + Google Sheets: This flow analyzes blog post data stored in a Microsoft SQL Server database and aggregates statistics from Ghost using a query. The resulting data is then used to generate a report in Google Sheets, providing insights into blog performance.
