Use secure methods such as API keys or OAuth to authorize requests between the GHL API and Acuity Scheduling. Rotate credentials regularly and minimize exposure.
Set up a trusted connection by exchanging credentials, applying scopes, and validating tokens before use.
The integration leverages create, update, retrieve, and delete endpoints for appointments, customers, calendars, and leads. Review the list below and configure only what you need to keep automations clean and efficient.
Trigger when a new appointment is booked in Acuity Scheduling to create or update an appointment in GHL
Actions include upserting the appointment in GHL, updating calendar availability, and sending confirmation notes
POST /appointments
Key fields: id, start_time, end_time, customer_id, status
Trigger on contact changes in Acuity Scheduling to upsert a contact in GHL
Actions: upsert contact, map fields, and notify teams of updates
PUT /customers/{id}
Key fields: id, email, name, phone
Trigger when a lead is created in GHL to push a lead into Acuity Scheduling campaigns
Actions: create lead in Acuity Scheduling and assign to a campaign; update status in GHL
POST /leads
Key fields: id, source, campaign_id
No code setup lets you automate data flows with templates and triggers in minutes
Visual workflow builders and webhooks reduce the need for custom code
Scalable data synchronization and error handling without writing server side code
Key elements include endpoints, authentication, data mapping, error handling, and testing. This glossary explains how the pieces fit together for this integration
A set of rules that allows software to communicate with other software
A real time message that notifies your system about events as they happen
An open standard for secure delegated access to APIs
A URL path that represents a resource or action in an API
Set up automatic confirmations and reminders to reduce no shows and improve client experience
Leverage reminders to suggest add ons or services before appointments
Route new leads into nurture campaigns that convert to booked appointments
Create a secure API key or OAuth app in the GHL dashboard and store credentials safely
Map data fields between Acuity Scheduling and the GHL API and set up test data
Run tests end to end and enable monitoring and alerting after deployment
No extensive coding is required. The integration supports no code workflows and visual builders. You can configure triggers and actions using templates. If you need more, simple scripts can extend functionality.
Yes. Use a sandbox or test mode to simulate real data without affecting production. You can validate payload mappings and error handling before going live.
Initial setup typically requires endpoints for creating and updating appointments and contacts. Also map fields between systems to ensure data flows correctly.
Data is transmitted over secure protocols and is subject to credential rotation and scope restrictions. Monitor for anomalous activity and enable logging and alerts.
Yes, you can customize field mappings to fit your data model. Use templates to predefine common mappings and adjust as needed.
Error handling includes retry logic, idempotent operations, and clear error messages. Use webhooks to detect and respond to failures.
There may be rate limits depending on plan. Plan ahead for bursts and implement backoff strategies.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
