Use a secure API key or OAuth flow to authorize requests from Zapier App Connector to GHL API, keeping credentials private.
In Zapier, link your GHL account and grant permissions to access contacts, deals, notes, and calls to enable automated workflows.
Available endpoints commonly used: /contacts, /deals, /notes, /calls, /tasks, /customers. Map fields like name, email, phone, and custom fields to ensure accurate data sync between GHL and your 46elks driven processes.
Trigger: A new or updated 46elks lead creates or updates a contact in GHL.
Actions: upsert contact, attach 46elks data as notes, and sync custom fields.
Endpoint path: /contacts (POST or PUT to upsert).
Key fields: email, phone, full_name, and any 46elks identifiers used for matching.
Trigger: New 46elks lead creates a deal in GHL.
Actions: create or update deals, attach the related contact, and set the closing stage.
Endpoint path: /deals.
Key fields: deal_name, amount, contact_id, close_date.
Trigger: 46elks call events trigger a note or call log in GHL.
Actions: create notes, log calls, and attach call data to the appropriate contact.
Endpoint path: /notes or /calls.
Key fields: call_id, duration, timestamp, contact_id, caller_id.
Automate repetitive workflows without writing code.
Create multi-step automations with a visual builder in Zapier.
Keep data synchronized between GHL and your 46elks powered processes.
Core elements including API endpoints, authentication methods, webhooks, and data mapping are used to connect GHL API with the Zapier App Connector.
An API is a set of rules that allow different software to communicate and share data.
A standard authorization framework that enables apps to access user data with permission.
A real-time HTTP callback triggered by an event in a service or app.
A specific URL in an API that performs an action or returns data.
Set up a zap that creates a GHL contact whenever a new lead is captured by 46elks.
Automatically log calls in GHL when 46elks receives a call.
Create tasks or reminders in GHL when a 46elks event occurs.
Authorize both sides and test connectivity.
Select the 46elks events and map fields to GHL data.
Run tests to ensure data flows correctly and then go live.
The GHL API is the programmatic interface that lets apps read, create, and update your GHL data. The Zapier App Connector is a no-code bridge that lets you connect GHL API to other services like 46elks without writing code. Together they enable automated workflows that move data between GHL and your call or messaging flows. This combination is ideal for teams seeking faster setup and reliable data sync.
Basic setup requires no deep coding knowledge. You mainly configure authentication, map fields, and define triggers and actions in Zapier. If you know how to connect apps in Zapier and map fields between GHL and 46elks, you’re ready to go. For advanced logic, you can add multi-step paths and filters, but coding is not required.
46elks events such as new leads, inbound calls, and call outcomes can be routed to GHL actions like creating contacts, logging calls, or updating deals. Start with a simple trigger and gradually expand to more complex workflows as you test data accuracy.
Data in transit is protected using standard HTTPS/TLS encryption. Access is controlled by OAuth or API keys, and you should rotate credentials regularly. Always test in a staging environment before going live to minimize exposure and monitor activity with logs.
Testing involves running a few end-to-end scenarios in Zapier’s test mode, verifying field mappings, and checking the created or updated records in GHL. Use sample data and verify both successful and failed paths to ensure robust error handling.
Yes, depending on your design you can sync data from GHL back to 46elks by setting up reverse triggers and actions. Carefully map fields and confirm data formats to prevent loops or duplicates.
If you run into issues, use Zapier’s task history, enable detailed logs, and consult the GHL API docs. You can also reach out to support resources or communities for guidance and troubleshooting steps.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
