To access endpoints you’ll use the Business API scope: businesses.readonly for read operations. Use your API credentials to obtain an access token, then include it in your Zapier requests. Keep your tokens secure and rotate credentials regularly.
Connect Zapier App Connector using OAuth 2.0 or API keys, as supported by the app. Gather your client ID and secret, then authorize the connection in Zapier and store tokens securely.
GET /businesses — Retrieve a list of businesses; GET /businesses/{businessId} — Retrieve details for a single business; POST /businesses — Create a new business; PUT /businesses/{businessId} — Update a business; DELETE /businesses/{businessId} — Delete a business.
Trigger on new or updated businesses in the Business API.
Use GET endpoints to pull current data into Zapier and drive your workflows by scheduling regular polls.
GET /businesses (and GET /businesses/{businessId})
id, name, status, createdAt, updatedAt
Trigger on new business creation or notable updates.
POST /businesses to create; PUT /businesses/{businessId} to update existing records.
POST /businesses and PUT /businesses/{businessId}
id, name, industry, ownerId
Trigger when a business is deleted or archived.
DELETE /businesses/{businessId}
DELETE /businesses/{businessId}
id, deletedAt
Zero-code automation to sync business data across platforms without writing a line of code.
Fast, visual workflow building with pre-built actions and triggers in Zapier.
Secure, scalable data integration with clear authentication and scope controls.
This glossary covers endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication methods, and key data fields you’ll work with when integrating the Business API with Zapier.
Application Programming Interface; a set of rules that enables apps to communicate with the Business API.
A specific URL path exposed by the API for a given operation.
Authorization framework for secure delegated access to resources.
Permissions assigned to an app to access certain API resources.
Pull new client records with GET /businesses and push onboarding steps through Zapier to your CRM and email tools.
Monitor changes in businesses and route alerts to Slack, email, or a project board in real time.
Schedule periodic exports to Google Sheets or Excel for reporting and analytics.
Obtain your API credentials or OAuth tokens, then authorize the app in both the Business API and Zapier.
Select GET /businesses and GET /businesses/{businessId}, then map id, name, and status to Zapier fields.
Run tests in Zapier, verify data flows, and deploy the workflow.
The Business API supports reading data with GET /businesses and GET /businesses/{businessId}. You can apply filters, sort, and paginate results to fit your workflow. Use query parameters to refine results and manage large data sets in Zapier. The scope businesses.readonly governs read access.
Write operations are available when your credentials grant a write scope (for example, businesses.write). Use POST, PUT, and DELETE endpoints to create, update, or remove records as needed. Always test changes in a safe environment before going live.
Use secure credential storage, rotate secrets regularly, and prefer OAuth 2.0 if supported. Never share tokens and enable least-privilege access based on the required scopes.
Yes. Zapier lets you apply filters and field mappings to restrict or transform data returned by GET /businesses. You can paginate results and control the data fields included in your Zapier steps.
If the token expires, refresh it using the standard OAuth flow or reissue a new API key. Monitor token expiry times and re-authenticate before the token becomes invalid.
No coding is required to connect via the Zapier App Connector’s UI. For advanced automations, you can add simple logic with Zapier workflows, filters, and multi-step zaps.
API credentials are issued from your GHL account. In Zapier, create or configure the connected app to obtain client ID and secret. Store these securely and rotate them periodically.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
