GHL authentication relies on API keys and OAuth flows. Use the contacts.readonly scope for read only access and contacts.write for write operations. Store credentials securely and rotate keys per best practices.
To connect Smaily with GHL, authorize the integration in Smaily, grant requested scopes, and configure the callback URL. Use the generated client credentials to establish a secure connection.
Core read endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id, GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments, GET /contacts/, GET /contacts/business/:businessId. Core write endpoints include POST /contacts/, PUT /contacts/:contactId, DELETE /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed, DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tags.
Trigger: a contact is updated in GHL, and the change is pushed to Smaily immediately.
Actions: update the corresponding Smaily contact, refresh notes, and adjust tags as needed.
Method path: use PUT /contacts/:contactId to push updates or POST /contacts/ to create new records.
Key fields: contactId, email, name, status, and any custom fields mapped between GHL and Smaily.
Trigger: new contact created in GHL triggers onboarding in Smaily.
Actions: create a welcome task in Smaily, attach intro notes, and enroll in a starter email sequence.
Method path: POST /contacts/ to create, then POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to add onboarding tasks.
Key fields: contactId, email, firstName, lastName, onboardingStatus.
Trigger: Smaily tags update triggers corresponding fields in GHL.
Actions: map Smaily tags to GHL contact fields and propagate updates both ways.
Method path: PUT /contacts/:contactId or POST /contacts/:contactId/tags to apply tags.
Key fields: contactId, tags, tagIds, SmailyTagName.
Automate data flow between GHL and Smaily without writing code, reducing manual work.
Maintains data consistency across platforms, with near real-time syncing.
Prebuilt endpoints, triggers, and mappings shorten setup time.
Key elements include endpoints, authentication, data mapping, triggers, actions, and error handling. Understanding these ensures a smooth integration.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that enables two software programs to communicate.
A webhook is a real-time notification URL that an app calls when a specified event occurs.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that lets apps access user data without handling passwords.
An API endpoint is a specific URL where an API can be accessed to perform operations.
Automatically create Smaily subscribers when a new contact is added in GHL.
Segment Smaily audiences by GHL lifecycle stage for targeted campaigns.
Sync status updates and notes back to GHL to keep data aligned.
Grant access in the GHL and Smaily admin consoles and obtain API credentials.
Map contact fields between GHL and Smaily to ensure correct data flow.
Test the integration with sample data, review logs, and go live when ready.
No specialized development is required. The built in connectors and workflows in GHL and Smaily handle the integration.\n\nHowever, advanced mappings or custom fields may benefit from a developer or a consultant familiar with REST APIs and data schemas.
The endpoints used depend on the data you sync. Typical endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId and POST /contacts/ for creating records.\n\nFor updates, PUT /contacts/:contactId and related task note endpoints are used. Review the Endpoint section for full coverage.
Yes. No code automation builders in GHL and Smaily allow you to connect apps without writing code.\n\nFor more complex needs, you can extend with API calls or custom fields.
First, verify that the app has the correct scopes such as contacts.readonly or contacts.write.\nIf authentication fails, check your client credentials, redirect URI settings, and endpoint reachability.
Notes and attachments are supported through the endpoint set; confirm which resources Smaily can receive via API.\nIf you need attachments, map a suitable field or workflow to carry the data.
Security is paramount. Use HTTPS, rotate keys regularly, and limit scopes to the minimum necessary.\nAudit logs and proper permissions help protect data between GHL and Smaily.
Yes. Map fields between GHL and Smaily with a flexible data mapping interface.\nDocument field mappings and test thoroughly to avoid data loss or overwrites.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
