Use OAuth 2.0 with your Snapshots API credentials or an API key strategy supported by GHL. In Zapier, securely store credentials and test the connection before going live.
Zapier connects to GHL using OAuth or API key based flows. Create or select a connection, authorize access, and keep tokens secure.
Endpoint1: GET /locations — Retrieve all locations. Endpoint2: GET /locations/{id} — Retrieve details for a specific location. Endpoint3: POST /locations — Create a new location. Endpoint4: PUT /locations/{id} — Update location data. Endpoint5: DELETE /locations/{id} — Remove a location. Endpoint6: GET /locations/search — Search locations by name or tag. Endpoint7: GET /locations/{id}/metadata — Get metadata for a location. Endpoint8: GET /locations/{id}/customers — List customers tied to a location. Endpoint9: POST /locations/{id}/tags — Add tags to a location. Endpoint10: PATCH /locations/{id} — Partial update for a location. Endpoint11: GET /locations/export — Export location data. Endpoint12: POST /locations/import — Import location data. Endpoint13: GET /locations/{id}/history — Location change history. Endpoint14: GET /locations/{id}/settings — Retrieve location settings. Endpoint15: PUT /locations/{id}/settings — Update location settings. Endpoint16: GET /locations/{id}/permissions — Get access permissions for a location. Endpoint17: GET /locations/health — System health for locations API.
Triggers when a location is updated in Snapshots, starting a Zap in Zapier.
Actions include creating a location, updating metadata, or syncing related records back to GHL.
GET /locations
OAuth client ID, client secret, and access token (plus optional API key).
Triggers when a webhook from Snapshots arrives, kicking off a Zap.
Actions include upserting records in GHL, updating notes, or creating new entities.
POST /webhooks/snapshots
Webhook secret, payload in JSON, headers for verification.
Scheduled triggers pull location data at regular intervals.
Actions synchronize data to GHL campaigns and dashboards.
GET /locations/scheduled
API key and scheduling configuration.
Zero-code automation lets you connect Snapshots data with your GHL workflows in minutes.
Rapid setup with pre-built triggers and actions in Zapier reduces development time.
Easy testing through Zapier’s test features and sample data helps validate automations fast.
A concise glossary of terms used in this integration, including API, endpoints, authentication, triggers, and actions.
Application Programming Interface: a defined set of rules that lets apps talk to each other.
A URL path in an API that exposes a resource or action.
Ways to prove identity and authorize access, such as OAuth 2.0 or API keys.
An event in an app that starts an automation in Zapier or GHL.
Create a Zap that updates donor locations in GHL whenever a snapshot changes.
Trigger notifications when a new donor is added or a donation threshold is met.
Automate batch syncing of location data to GHL campaigns and dashboards.
Install the Zapier App Connector in your GHL account and authorize access.
Enter your credentials and test the connection.
Choose a trigger, map actions, and run a test workflow.
The Snapshots API exposes endpoints for retrieving and updating location data used by 4aGoodCause. It supports filtering, pagination, and metadata delivery so you can tailor data flows to your GHL workflows. In Zapier, you map these endpoints into triggers and actions to automate your processes. Two: You can test endpoints in a safe sandbox environment or with a small dataset before moving to production. This helps validate data mappings and error handling without impacting live records.
Authentication is handled via OAuth 2.0 with optional API keys where supported. Create a connection in Zapier, grant access to your GHL account, and refresh tokens as needed. Two: Keep credentials secure by using Zapier’s built-in secret storage and rotating keys regularly for best security practices.
Common endpoints include /locations to fetch all locations and /locations/{id} for a single location. The Endpoints list in this page provides a broader view of available paths, including search, metadata, and history. Two: Review API docs for field-level details and example requests to understand response shapes and required parameters.
Yes. You can use Zapier’s test action to simulate triggers and actions without touching your live data. Use a sandbox or sample dataset to verify mappings and error handling. Two: After testing, you can switch to live mode and monitor the first runs for unexpected results.
No heavy coding is required. This integration is designed for no-code automation within Zapier and GHL, using pre-built triggers and actions and optional custom fields. Two: If you need advanced logic, you can insert code steps in Zapier or leverage APIs for custom endpoints.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and API token, but typical patterns include caps per minute or per hour. Plan retries and backoff in your Zaps to avoid hitting limits. Two: If you approach limits, consider batching requests or spacing triggers to stay within quotas.
Support is available via Rankr’s help center and the GHL integration team. Check our docs for troubleshooting steps and submit a support ticket if issues persist. Two: For urgent issues, use our live chat channel during business hours.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
