Authenticate to the Snapshots API using your GHL API key with the saas/location.read scope to securely access data from Chargebee. Store credentials securely and rotate keys regularly.
Configure a trusted connection by issuing a Chargebee API key pair and configuring request signing so that Snapshots API calls originate from the approved app. Use least-privilege scopes.
Endpoint 1: GET /locations — retrieves location data. Endpoint 2-17 are available in the API docs for broader data access.
Trigger: location updates in Chargebee trigger a refresh of location data in Snapshots API.
Actions: fetch updated location data, write to Snapshots, log changes.
GET /locations
location_id, updated_at
Trigger: when a new or updated customer is detected in Chargebee
Actions: pull customer data, update Snapshots, reconcile changes
GET /customers
customer_id, updated_at
Trigger: subscription status changes in Chargebee
Actions: fetch subscription data, update Snapshots, report status
GET /subscriptions
subscription_id, status
Automate data sync without writing code, reducing manual effort.
Keep records up to date in real time to reduce errors and manual reconciliation.
Consolidate insights by viewing locations, customers, and subscriptions from a single dashboard.
Key elements and processes you’ll encounter when integrating GHL with Chargebee via the Snapshots API include credentials, scopes, endpoints, and data mapping.
A secret credential used to authenticate requests to the Snapshots API.
A specific URL path in the Snapshots API that performs an action or returns data.
A mechanism for receiving real-time events from the Snapshots API.
Open Authorization protocol used to grant secure access to resources.
Set up scheduled checks to ensure location data in Snapshots stays current with Chargebee events.
Combine payment history with customer details to enrich profiles and segmentation.
Create dashboards showing churn, upgrades, and downgrades by pulling data from Snapshots API.
Collect your GHL API key and your Chargebee API credentials, and note required scopes.
Set the scope to saas/location.read and choose endpoints you need, starting with /locations.
Run tests to verify data flow and then enable the integration in your production environment.
The Snapshots API provides access to key data like locations, customers, and subscriptions. It connects to Chargebee by using your GHL API key with appropriate scopes to pull or push data. To start, generate API credentials, configure the app connection, and map fields between systems. Always test in a sandbox before production. For ongoing reliability, monitor logs and set up alerts for failures.
For a basic setup, start with Endpoint GET /locations to pull location data, GET /customers for customer details, and GET /subscriptions for subscription statuses. You can expand later to additional endpoints as needed. Ensure you have the saas/location.read scope and that credentials are securely stored.
Use API keys with least privilege and rotate them regularly. Prefer token-based or OAuth-style authentication where available, and sign requests securely. Do not expose keys in client-side code. Use server-side proxies and environment variables to protect credentials.
Yes. Webhooks can push real-time updates from Snapshots API to Chargebee or your middleware. Configure events you care about (e.g., location changes, customer updates) and provide a secure endpoint to receive payloads. Validate signatures and implement retry logic.
By default you typically pull location data, customer details, and subscription information along with IDs and timestamps. Field mapping lets you include additional data as needed for reporting and automation.
Test with sandbox credentials and a staging environment. Run end-to-end data flows, verify field mappings, and check for errors in logs. Validate error handling and retry behavior before going live.
API docs for the Snapshots API and Chargebee integration cover endpoints, authentication, and best practices. Access the official docs portal and search for Snapshots API, Chargebee integration, and security guidance to stay up to date.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
