Authenticate requests with OAuth 2.0 tokens issued by GHL for the Custom Objects API. Use your app credentials and requested scopes to obtain access tokens before calling endpoints.
ABC GymSales uses the GHL OAuth flow to authorize API calls to its Custom Objects. Keep tokens secure and refresh before they expire.
API Endpoints: – GET /objects/:key — Retrieve a single object by key. – GET /objects — List all object definitions and schemas. – objects/schema.write — Update an object schema. – GET /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id — Retrieve a specific record by key. – POST /objects/:schemaKey/records — Create a new object record. – PUT /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id — Update an existing object record. – DELETE /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id — Delete a record. – API Endpoint10-17 — Reserved for future updates or additional endpoints; consult the API docs for details.
Trigger: a new or updated ABC GymSales record creates or updates a matching Custom Object in GHL via POST/PUT to the records endpoint.
Actions: map fields by external_id, upsert records, and keep timestamps synchronized.
POST /objects/:schemaKey/records (create) and PUT /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id (update).
Key fields: external_id, object_key, record_id.
Trigger: need to fetch multiple GymSales records and retrieve corresponding objects in GHL for bulk processing.
Actions: use GET /objects with schemaKey and pagination; map results to internal fields; handle batching.
GET /objects
Query fields: schemaKey, limit, page.
Trigger: fetch a single object by its key with GET /objects/:key.
Actions: decode and map fields, gracefully handle 404s, cache for speed.
GET /objects/:key
Key field: key.

Start by registering an API client in GHL and completing the OAuth flow for ABC GymSales.
Define object schemas used by ABC GymSales and map fields to the API.
Run tests, validate data mapping, and set up dashboards and alerts before going live.
You authenticate with OAuth 2.0 tokens issued by GHL for the Custom Objects API. Ensure your app has the correct scopes and securely stores tokens. Access tokens should be refreshed before expiration to maintain uninterrupted calls. If you are using a service account or app-level credentials, rotate credentials regularly and follow your security policy for token storage and access.
The page documents core endpoints like GET /objects/:key, GET /objects, GET /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id, and POST/PUT/DELETE for records. These endpoints let you read definitions, fetch specific records, and manage data in your Custom Objects. Refer to your API docs for a complete, up-to-date list of endpoints and any environment-specific differences.
No-code friendly workflows are supported via field mapping, webhooks, and automation tools that can trigger on record changes. For more complex logic, lightweight scripting in your integration platform can be used, but many scenarios can be achieved with point-and-click configuration. Consider using pre-built templates or connectors provided by ABC GymSales and your automation environment to accelerate setup.
Use field mapping to align ABC GymSales fields with the corresponding GHL Custom Object fields. Maintain consistent data types and use external_id and key fields to match records. Test with sample data to verify mapping accuracy and adjust as needed. Document your field mappings so future updates and audits stay clear.
Yes. API calls are subject to rate limits and quotas that vary by plan. Plan for retries with exponential backoff and implement caching where appropriate to reduce call volume. Monitor usage with dashboards and set alerts to stay within limits and avoid disruptions.
Return codes, clear error messages, and retry guidance are provided by the API. Implement retry logic for transient errors and backoff for rate limits. Log errors for auditability and set up alerting for persistent failures. If you receive authentication or permission errors, verify scopes, credentials, and user access rights.
The API documentation and example requests are available in your API docs portal and developer center. Look for endpoint definitions, sample requests, and response schemas. You can also generate code samples in your preferred language to speed up integration. If you’re missing documentation, contact support to obtain the latest reference materials.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
