Posts are the primary resource in a Ghost site, providing means for publishing, managing and displaying content. At the heart of every post is a Lexical field, containing a standardised JSON-based representation of your content, which can be rendered in multiple formats. 
GET /admin/posts/
GET /admin/posts/{id}/
GET /admin/posts/slug/{slug}/
POST /admin/posts/
PUT /admin/posts/{id}/
DELETE /admin/posts/{id}/

​
The post object

Whenever you fetch, create, or edit a post, the API will respond with an array of one or more post objects. These objects will include all related tags, authors, and author roles. By default, the API expects and returns content in the Lexical format only. To include HTML in the response use the formats parameter: 
// GET /admin/posts/?formats=html,lexical

Parameters

When retrieving posts from the admin API, it is possible to use the include, formats, filter, limit, page and order parameters as documented for the Content API. Some defaults are different between the two APIs, however the behaviour and availability of the parameters remains the same.
