Authenticate requests to the Memberships API using standard API keys or OAuth tokens. Ensure the scope users.readonly is granted for read access to user data.
Authenticate Accredible Certificates requests using secure app credentials from your dashboard. Use the provided client ID and secret to generate access tokens for API calls that create or retrieve certificates.
Available endpoints for this integration include: 1) GET /users/ — list users; 2) GET /users/{userId} — fetch a specific user; Other endpoints are not required for Accredible Certificates integration but are available in the API reference.
Trigger: when a new or updated user is detected in Memberships API, fetch user details and prepare an associated Accredible certificate record.
Actions: call GET /users/{id} to retrieve data; map fields to Accredible’s certificate schema; queue certificate creation.
GET /users/ and GET /users/{userId} are the core methods used for this connection.
Key fields: userId, email, fullName, membershipStatus, enrollmentDate.
Trigger: membership status changes to eligible triggers certificate issuance.
Actions: verify eligibility against Accredible criteria; issue or update certificate; set expiration and status.
API calls to evaluate eligibility are performed through endpoint results and internal logic.
Key fields: membershipStatus, eligibilityDate, certificateTemplateId, userEmail.
Trigger: new or updated Accredible certificate issued, push summary back to Memberships API.
Actions: update user record with certificateId, status, and issuanceDate; log for audit.
Methods may include a POST/PUT to update user data; rely on available endpoints for user records.
Key fields: userId, certificateId, issuanceDate, certificateStatus.
Automate certificate issuance without writing code using your GHL workflows and webhooks.
Sync real-time member data to keep certificates current and compliant with statuses and expiration dates.
Centralized auditing and reporting with a single source of truth for memberships and credentials.
Key elements include endpoints, triggers, actions, and data fields. Understanding these helps you design reliable automations.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that lets apps talk to each other and exchange data securely.
An event in your system that starts an automation, such as a new user or status change in Memberships API.
A specific URL in an API that performs an action or returns data, like retrieving a user record.
How data from Memberships API fields maps to Accredible certificate fields during issuance.
Trigger certificate issuance when a member hits a milestone, pulling data via GET /users/ and creating a verified Accredible certificate.
Stream status changes from Memberships API into Accredible to reflect current eligibility and expiration.
Aggregate user and certificate data in a single dashboard for compliance reporting.
Obtain a valid API key for Memberships API and configure app credentials for Accredible Certificates in your GHL account.
Use OAuth or API keys to call GET /users/ and GET /users/{userId}, then validate responses.
Create mappings from Memberships API fields to Accredible certificate fields and set up a trigger-based automation.
No-code options exist via GHL workflows, webhooks, and prebuilt connectors that automate the process. You can set up triggers and actions without writing code. For more advanced customizations, API access is available.
Memberships API supports API keys and OAuth tokens for secure access. Choose the method that fits your security requirements and rotate credentials regularly.
The core endpoints are GET /users/ and GET /users/{userId}. Other endpoints exist in the API reference but may not be needed for certificate issuance.
Yes. Use sandbox or development environments to verify data flows before going live. Always back up data prior to production changes.
Map fields carefully: e.g., user email to certificate recipient email, membershipStatus to certificate status. Use data transformation rules for date formats and IDs to ensure clean mappings.
Implement robust retry logic and comprehensive error logging. Common issues include authentication failures, rate limits, and missing required fields; handle gracefully and notify your team.
Logs and audit trails are accessible in your GHL API Connections section. Enable verbose logging for troubleshooting and configure alerts for failures.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
