Authenticate GHL requests to AccuLynx using the Forms API credentials and a scope of forms.readonly. Store tokens securely and rotate credentials regularly.
AccuLynx uses its own access tokens to receive data from the Forms API; ensure the token has the required permissions for forms.readonly and keep it securely stored.
Endpoint 1: GET /forms/ — Retrieve a list of forms; Endpoint 2: GET /forms/submissions — Retrieve form submissions; Endpoint 3-54: See API documentation for the full endpoint list and usage.
Trigger: a new submission is captured in Forms API.
Actions: create or update a contact in AccuLynx, map fields (name, email, phone) and attach submission data.
Path: GET /forms/submissions and GET /forms/ to fetch data and definitions.
Key fields: form_id, submission_id, respondent_email, form_title, submission_timestamp
Trigger: when a form definition is created or updated.
Actions: create or update AccuLynx templates; map fields and validation rules.
Path: GET /forms/
Fields: form_id, form_title, form_version
Trigger: new submission arrives via Forms API.
Actions: create a new AccuLynx project or task; link to the lead; populate fields.
Path: GET /forms/submissions
Fields: submission_id, lead_id, project_id
Automate data transfer without writing code or scripts.
Accelerate lead-to-project handoffs with real-time syncing.
Keep data consistent across systems with centralized form data.
Key elements and processes used to connect GHL Forms API with AccuLynx, including authentication, endpoints, data mapping, and error handling.
An application programming interface (API) that enables software to communicate; in this page, the GHL Forms API enables retrieval of form data and submissions.
A specific URL path for an API function, such as GET /forms/ to list forms.
In this guide, App refers to AccuLynx or the GHL Forms API app used to connect data between systems.
A user-submitted form response that can be mapped to Contact, Lead, or Project fields in AccuLynx.
Notify teams instantly when new forms are submitted, with key details mapped to AccuLynx fields.
Automatically create an AccuLynx project populated with submission data to accelerate work.
Validate incoming data and deduplicate leads before syncing to AccuLynx.
Obtain API keys for the Forms API and ensure scope forms.readonly; securely store credentials.
Set up GET /forms/ and GET /forms/submissions in your automation flows, with proper field mappings.
Run test submissions, verify data in AccuLynx, and monitor logs for errors.
No coding is required for basic integrations. This guide provides step-by-step instructions and ready-made templates to map form data to AccuLynx records, so you can enable data flow quickly. For advanced users, you can extend mappings with conditional rules as needed.
For a basic setup, you need GET /forms/ to list your forms and GET /forms/submissions to pull submissions. Use the mapping template to align form fields with AccuLynx fields.
Data transfer uses secure authentication and encrypted channels. Regular token rotation and least-privilege scopes help protect your data during syncing.
Yes. You can map custom fields from submissions to corresponding fields in AccuLynx; ensure the field names align and use fallback values where needed.
Webhooks are supported for real-time updates when submissions occur. If you prefer polling, you can configure periodic pulls with GET endpoints.
The forms.readonly scope allows reading form definitions and submissions but does not grant write access; adjust permissions accordingly.
Endpoint documentation is available in the API docs linked in your integration dashboard; look for the Forms API reference for specifics on each endpoint.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
