Use your GHL API credentials to authorize requests to Acronis. Obtain an API key or OAuth token from the GHL API, then configure the Zapier App Connector to present those credentials on each request.
In Zapier, generate an OAuth token or API key for the Zapier App Connector and approve access to Acronis endpoints. Store credentials securely.
This page references a comprehensive set of endpoints (54 plus) that enable authentication, connection, triggers, and data mapping between GHL, the Acronis API, and Zapier.
Trigger: A new CRM record triggers an Acronis backup task.
Actions: Initiate backup, monitor status, push updates to the CRM, and notify stakeholders.
POST /v1/backups/start
Key fields: account_id, backup_policy_id, trigger_id
Trigger: Daily at 2:00 AM to sync backups and metadata.
Actions: Run sync, update backup records, generate daily digest.
POST /v1/backups/sync
Key fields: sync_id, last_sync_timestamp
Trigger: User initiates a backup from the GHL or Zapier UI.
Actions: Start backup, log result, update CRM with status.
POST /v1/backups/manual
Key fields: user_id, backup_id
Automate protection workflows without writing a single line of code.
Orchestrate cross-app workflows with drag-and-drop builders and prebuilt actions.
Scale operations by quickly adding new triggers and actions as needs grow.
This section defines the core elements: endpoints, authentication, triggers, actions, and data mapping that power the GHL connection between Acronis and Zapier App Connector.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that allow software to interact.
OAuth 2.0 is an open standard for access delegation that allows apps to obtain limited access to user accounts.
An API Key is a token used to authenticate requests to an API.
Data mapping is translating data fields from one system to another to ensure accurate data flow.
Automatically start a backup whenever a new contact, deal, or case is created to protect critical data.
Configure routines to generate tamper-evident logs and export reports.
Link backup status to CRM tasks and notifications to keep teams aligned.
Collect API keys or OAuth tokens for both services and grant access to the integration.
Map fields between GHL, Acronis, and Zapier, and set up triggers based on CRM events.
Run test scenarios, validate backups, and monitor performance after going live.
No-code integration lets you build automations using a visual editor in Zapier App Connector, GHL, and Acronis without writing code. You can drag and drop triggers, actions, and conditions to create end-to-end protection workflows. The UI guides you through authentication, mapping, and testing so you can deploy quickly.
No traditional coding is required; you configure everything in the UI. For advanced behaviors, you can add simple filters, branching logic, and conditional steps within the Zapier App Connector and GHL interfaces.
Yes. Data in transit can be encrypted with TLS, and data at rest can be encrypted and stored in secure regions. Access is controlled via API keys and OAuth scopes, with regular credential rotation recommended.
Yes. Triggers and actions can be customized to fire on specific CRM events or backup outcomes. Use conditions to fine-tune when a backup is invoked.
The endpoints referenced cover authentication, connection, and data operations between GHL, Acronis, and Zapier. See the Endpoint List for a complete reference and usage notes.
Use a test environment in GHL and Zapier to simulate real-world scenarios. Create test records, run through your automations, and verify backup creation and status reporting before going live.
Logs are available in the Zapier task history and the Acronis activity portal. You can also configure webhooks to push alerts to your team dashboards for real-time monitoring.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
