How to Connect AccuLynx with Custom Objects API

A practical guide to linking the Custom Objects API with AccuLynx for seamless data flow

How to connect Custom Objects API to AccuLynx

This guide walks you through authenticating, selecting endpoints, and mapping fields so that AccuLynx and the Custom Objects API work together to keep your data in sync in real time.

Authentication for Custom Objects API

Access is secured with API keys and OAuth tokens. Use your GHL credentials to obtain tokens for AccuLynx data operations, and rotate credentials regularly to maintain security.

AccuLynx authentication context

Within AccuLynx, authorize calls to the Custom Objects API with scoped tokens. Ensure the app has objects.readonly for reads and objects.schema.write for schema changes.

GHL Custom Objects API Endpoints Used with AccuLynx

Endpoints you can use include: GET /objects/:key, GET /objects, objects/schema.write, objects/record.readonly, GET /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id, objects/record.write, POST /objects/:schemaKey/records, PUT /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id, DELETE /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id. Additional endpoints 10–17 exist for expanded functionality and future use.

Top 3 connection patterns between Custom Objects API and AccuLynx

1) Read a single object by key and propagate updates

Trigger: when a specific object key changes in AccuLynx, fetch the latest object data from GHL and push updates downstream.

Actions: call GET /objects/:key to retrieve object data, map fields to AccuLynx, and write back to the target system as needed.

GET /objects/:key

key (unique object key) and related identifiers for mapping

2) Batch read and incremental sync

Trigger: schedule or webhook-based sync for all objects within a schema to keep data aligned.

Actions: GET /objects to list schemas, then GET /objects to pull records, map fields, and update AccuLynx in batches.

GET /objects

schemaKey, id, and field mappings per object

3) Create and update records in AccuLynx via POST/PUT

Trigger: changes in GHL custom objects create or update corresponding records in AccuLynx.

Actions: POST /objects/:schemaKey/records to create records and PUT /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id to update existing ones.

POST /objects/:schemaKey/records; PUT /objects/:schemaKey/records/:id

schemaKey, id, and the required fields defined by each object schema

No-code benefits of integrating Custom Objects API with AccuLynx

Auto-syncing object data reduces manual entry and data drift across platforms.

Real-time updates speed up workflows and decision making.

Centralized visibility of object data within AccuLynx for easy reporting.

Key terms and glossary

This section defines core elements: objects, schemas, and records, plus the processes to authenticate, fetch, create, and map data between the GHL Custom Objects API and AccuLynx.

GHL API

The programmable interface exposed by the GHL platform to access resources such as contacts, deals, and custom objects.

Endpoint

A specific path you call in the API to perform an action, such as /objects or /objects/:key.

Object

A data type defined in GHL, consisting of fields that describe a real-world item; used in custom objects and schemas.

Authentication

Three creative ideas to connect Custom Objects API with AccuLynx

One-click field mapping and live data sync

Automatically map fields between AccuLynx objects and GHL custom objects to reduce setup time and keep data aligned.

Automated validation and error handling

Add checks to ensure data integrity during sync and automatically surface and retry errors.

Event-driven workflows and automations

Trigger actions in AccuLynx based on GHL object changes, enabling streamlined processes.

Three steps to connect Custom Objects API with AccuLynx

Step 1: provision API access

Register the integration, generate API credentials, and scope access to objects.

Step 2: authenticate and authorize

Request access tokens using the client credentials flow and authorize calls to the objects endpoints.

Step 3: implement data mapping and workflows

Define field mappings and set up triggers and actions to sync records between GHL and AccuLynx.

Frequently Asked Questions

What authentication methods are supported for the GHL Custom Objects API?

You can authenticate with API keys and OAuth tokens. Use the client credentials flow to obtain a token for AccuLynx access, then include the token in each request. Rotate credentials regularly and store them securely. If you encounter expired tokens, refresh them using your refresh token. Always use HTTPS to protect tokens in transit.

For basic read and write, start with GET /objects/:key to fetch a single object and POST /objects/:schemaKey/records to create records. Use GET /objects to list objects or schemas, and PUT or DELETE to update or remove records as needed. These endpoints cover common read/write use cases with AccuLynx.

Yes. You can map fields from GHL custom objects to corresponding fields in AccuLynx by defining a schema mapping. This ensures data consistency across systems and simplifies downstream workflows.

No-code options are available via prebuilt templates and automations. You can also script custom logic with webhooks and middleware if you prefer code. Both approaches enable flexible data flows without heavy development.

Implement retry logic and exponential backoff for failed requests. Use idempotent operations where possible, log errors with sufficient context, and alert your team when repeated failures occur to prevent data loss.

Rate limits vary by endpoint and plan. Plan for burst handling by staggering requests and using pagination where offered. If you anticipate high volumes, contact support to discuss higher quotas or optimal batching strategies.

The API endpoint list and schema documentation are available in your GHL developer portal and the AccuLynx integration guide. You can also reference in-app API docs and endpoint references within your app connector.
