Authenticate to the Custom Fields API using your API token or OAuth credentials. Ensure your token has the locations/customValues.readonly scope for read access, and add locations/customValues.write for write operations.
Authorize AccuLynx to access the GHL Custom Fields API securely. Store credentials in a safe vault and rotate tokens according to your security policy.
Endpoints used with AccuLynx include: GET /locations/:locationId/customValues, GET /locations/:locationId/customValues/:id, POST /locations/:locationId/customValues, PUT /locations/:locationId/customValues/:id, DELETE /locations/:locationId/customValues; GET /locations/:locationId/customFields, GET /locations/:locationId/customFields/:id, POST /locations/:locationId/customFields, PUT /locations/:locationId/customFields/:id, DELETE /locations/:locationId/customFields/:id, GET /custom-fields/:id, GET /custom-field/object-key/:key, GET /locations/:locationId/tags.
Trigger: fetch current custom values for a given location via GET /locations/:locationId/customValues.
Actions: pull data, map to AccuLynx fields, and cache locally or in your workflow.
Method/Path: GET /locations/:locationId/customValues
Key fields: locationId, id, value, label, createdAt
Trigger: add or modify a custom value for a location via POST or PUT.
Actions: create new value with POST /locations/:locationId/customValues or update existing with PUT, then confirm via GET.
Method/Path: POST /locations/:locationId/customValues or PUT /locations/:locationId/customValues/:id
Key fields: locationId, id, value, label
Trigger: retrieve or modify location-level custom fields via GET /locations/:locationId/customFields and POST/PUT/DELETE operations.
Actions: read fields, map labels, and manage correspondences with AccuLynx records.
Method/Path: GET /locations/:locationId/customFields, GET /locations/:locationId/customFields/:id, POST /locations/:locationId/customFields, PUT /locations/:locationId/customFields/:id, DELETE /locations/:locationId/customFields/:id
Key fields: locationId, id, key, label, type
Automate data flow between AccuLynx and the Custom Fields API without writing code.
Leverage visual workflows to map fields, triggers, and actions.
Reduce manual data entry and speed up project lifecycle.
Key elements include endpoints, triggers, actions, and fields used to move data between GHL and AccuLynx.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to access or manipulate a resource in the GHL API.
An event in an integration that starts a workflow or action.
A step that performs an operation, such as creating or updating a resource.
A data point stored on a resource, such as a custom value label.
Automatically map AccuLynx custom fields to project templates to reduce manual setup.
Push status changes from AccuLynx back to GHL to keep dashboards in sync.
Trigger alerts when critical custom values change to notify teams.
Obtain an access token and verify scopes for read and write access.
Configure the endpoints in Zapier or your integration layer and test requests.
Run end-to-end tests and set up error handling and monitoring.
The Custom Fields API lets you read and write location-specific custom values and fields within GHL from AccuLynx. It enables you to pull existing data into automations and push updates back to GHL. Use appropriate authentication and scopes to ensure secure access, and start with read operations before enabling write actions in a test environment.
Start by selecting the endpoints you need, such as GET /locations/:locationId/customValues for reads and POST /locations/:locationId/customValues for creates. Set up mapping rules in your integration tool so fields align with AccuLynx project data, then run test records to verify accuracy.
No heavy coding is required for many no-code automations; tools like Zapier can handle the majority of tasks with simple triggers and actions. For more complex logic, you can add light scripting or conditional steps within your automation workflow.
Authenticate using API tokens or OAuth credentials and protect tokens with secure storage. Apply the principle of least privilege by using scoped tokens, rotate credentials regularly, and implement robust error handling and retry logic.
Yes. You can create reusable mapping templates that pair AccuLynx fields with GHL custom fields. Save these as presets in your automation platform to speed up future integrations.
Data typically flows from AccuLynx to GHL for reads and from GHL to AccuLynx for writes. Triggers can start on value changes, while actions update corresponding records. Ensure consistent field mapping to avoid data drift.
Logs and errors are usually accessible in your integration tool or the API response log. Enable verbose logging for API calls, review error codes, and use test records to reproduce issues before going live.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
