Definitions of terms used in this guide, including API endpoints, webhooks, authentication, and data mapping.
GHL refers to the platform API used for automations and integrations in this context.
A URL that exposes a specific function of the GHL API for operations like create, read, update, or delete.
A real-time push mechanism that delivers events from GHL to another service when configured.
An authorization framework used to obtain access tokens securely for API requests.
Automatically sync contact updates in real time to keep data consistent across tools.
Trigger onboarding email sequences when a new or updated contact is detected.
Automatically populate custom fields in ActiveCampaign based on App Connector events.
Obtain API credentials from ActiveCampaign and authorize the connection in the Zapier App Connector.
Select endpoints and map fields between ActiveCampaign and the App Connector.
Run tests to verify end-to-end data flow and switch the integration on for live use.
No coding is required to set up the integration. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual builder to map fields and define triggers. You can create complex automations with clicks rather than code. If you run into setup questions, consult the docs or support.
Key fields typically include email, first name, last name, and any custom fields you map. Data types and field mappings depend on your ActiveCampaign configuration and the App Connector setup. Ensure required fields are present for each trigger.
Authentication uses secure token exchange and allows you to store credentials safely. Use the method supported by the connector (API key or OAuth) and rotate credentials as recommended.
Yes. Triggers and actions are configurable via maps and rules in the Zapier App Connector. You can adjust mappings, filtering, and conditions to tailor automations.
API rate limits vary by plan and resource. If you approach the limit, consider batching updates, throttling requests, or upgrading to a higher plan.
A paid Zapier plan may be required for premium features, higher task limits, and advanced automation options. Check your account plan for specifics.
If data does not sync as expected, verify credentials, test endpoints, review mappings, and consult the logs. Reach out to support if issues persist.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
