Authenticate requests using OAuth and your API key, with scope opportunities.readonly to keep access tight.
To authorize 4Degrees to access GHL data, complete the OAuth flow and grant the required permissions.
Key endpoints used include GET /opportunities/search to find records, GET /opportunities/:id to load details, GET /opportunities/pipelines to view stages, POST /opportunities to create, PUT /opportunities/:id to update, PUT /opportunities/:id/status to change status, and DELETE /opportunities/:id to remove. The remaining endpoints 9–17 are not required for this page but are available in the API reference.
Trigger: a new or updated opportunity in 4Degrees.
Actions: POST to /opportunities in GHL, map fields, and attach to the correct pipeline.
POST /opportunities
name, close_date, value, stage_id, pipeline_id, owner_id
Trigger: status or field changes in an opportunity in GHL.
Actions: PUT /opportunities/:id to sync updates to 4Degrees; map fields bidirectionally.
PUT /opportunities/:id
name, status, value, close_date, external_id mappings
Trigger: a note or attachment is added or updated.
Actions: POST or PUT to create notes in the opposite system; preserve IDs for traceability.
POST /opportunities/:id/notes
note_text, author_id, created_at
Automate key workflows without writing a line of code.
Real-time data sync reduces manual updates and errors.
Unified reporting improves forecasting and visibility.
This section covers endpoints, authentication, field mapping, data formats, and error handling involved in the 4Degrees and Opportunities API integration.
A URL path exposed by an API that lets you read or write data.
A secure authorization framework that lets apps access resources on behalf of a user.
Aligning data fields between systems so data syncs correctly and consistently.
A lightweight HTTP callback that notifies your app when an event occurs.
Automatically generate GHL Opportunities when a new deal is added in 4Degrees to kick off pipelines without manual entry.
Keep opportunity stages in sync so updates in either system reflect across both platforms.
Configure webhooks to notify your team immediately when key changes occur in opportunities.
Create an application in GHL and capture client ID and secret for OAuth.
Set scope to opportunities.readonly and map required endpoints in your app.
Run test API calls, verify data mapping, and enable automation.
You can sync key fields such as name, value, close date, stage, and owner between 4Degrees and Opportunities API. This keeps your pipeline consistent and easy to report on. If you enable webhooks, you can receive real-time alerts when changes occur in either system. Mapping ensures data parity across platforms and minimizes manual data entry.
No extensive coding is required. The no-code approach uses the built-in OAuth flow, API endpoints, and field mappings. You can configure triggers and actions in a connected app without writing server code. If you need deeper logic, you can add lightweight automation with rules and tasks, but coding is not mandatory.
Connections use OAuth 2.0 for secure authorization and API keys for access control. All requests should be scoped to opportunities.readonly unless you explicitly enable write access. Regular token rotation and least-privilege access help keep data safe. Always validate responses and handle error codes gracefully to maintain a resilient integration.
The primary scope is opportunities.readonly for viewing and syncing. When enabling write capabilities, you may also require a write scope for creating or updating opportunities. Manage scopes carefully to minimize risk. Documented field mappings ensure you know exactly which fields move between GHL and 4Degrees.
Yes. Depending on permissions, you can create, update, and delete opportunities from either side. Ensure proper field mappings so updates reflect correctly in both systems. Use safeguards like test modes before going live. Be mindful of duplicate detection rules to avoid creating duplicates.
Rate limits depend on your plan and API usage. Plan for bursts and implement exponential backoff on 429 responses. Use batching where possible and cache responses to reduce repeated calls. Monitor usage with dashboards and set alerts for unusual activity to keep the integration stable.
If a sync fails, check authentication tokens, scope permissions, and field mappings. Review API response codes for guidance. Re-run the failed job after correcting the issue and consider implementing retries with backoff. Consult the API reference for endpoint-specific error handling and common pitfalls.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
