To start, generate API credentials in the GHL developer console and grant Act! the rights to manage users and workflows.
Connect Act! using your API credentials and securely store them in your integration settings.
Endpoint examples include POST /users/ to create users, DELETE /users/:userId to remove users, PUT /users/:userId to update user data, GET /workflows/ to list workflows, and POST /courses/courses-exporter/public/import to import course data
Trigger: when a new contact is added in Act!, automatically create a corresponding user in Email API.
Actions: create user data via POST /users/ and keep profiles in sync with Act! records.
POST /users/
Key fields: email, fullName, status
Trigger: when a workflow reaches a stage in Act!, send an email via Email API.
Actions: fetch workflows with GET /workflows/ and trigger Email API sends based on conditions.
GET /workflows/
Key fields: workflow_id, triggerCondition
Trigger: when a course is published or updated in Act!, create a learner record in Email API.
Actions: import course data via courses/courses-exporter/public/import to automate delivery.
POST courses/courses-exporter/public/import
Key fields: course_id, student_email, status
Benefit 1: Rapid no-code integration using the Zapier App Connector
Benefit 2: Scalable user provisioning across platforms with consistent data
Benefit 3: Automated workflows that reduce manual tasks and errors
Overview of elements: endpoints, triggers, actions, and data mapping between Act! and Email API
Application Programming Interface a set of rules that enables apps to talk to each other
A specific URL where an API can be accessed to perform an action
The process of verifying identity to allow access to data
A real-time event notification sent to your app when something happens
Use Act! to trigger a welcome email via Email API when a new user is added
Leverage endpoints to segment users and send targeted campaigns
Automate course enrollment messages via Email API when learners complete modules
Create or locate your Email API credentials and note the API key or OAuth details
Map Act! fields to Email API endpoints such as POST /users/ to create users
Run tests in a safe sandbox and then enable the integration in production
You will need admin level access to authorize the connection. Ensure the API key or OAuth token is stored securely. The integration can be built no-code using the Zapier App Connector. It enables programmatic control of users and workflows.
No heavy coding is required. Use the visual builder to map triggers to actions. For advanced setups, you can insert custom fields or small scripts.
For basic sync, focus on user creation and workflow endpoints. You can fetch workflows and trigger emails.
Test in a sandbox environment, verify data integrity, monitor error logs.
Yes you can import and export course data using the specified endpoint courses/courses-exporter/public/import.
Data mapping supports user fields like email, name, and course IDs.
API credentials are found in the GHL developer portal under your app settings.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
