To start, generate or retrieve your API credentials in your GHL account, ensure the correct scope (socialplanner/post.write), and store tokens securely for each request.
PreciseFP uses OAuth 2.0 tokens or API keys to authorize requests to the Surveys API. Configure your app’s credentials and keep them secure.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts — create a new social post for a location PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — update an existing post DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — delete a post PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — modify fields of a post
Trigger: When a new post draft is created in PreciseFP, a request is sent to Surveys API to create a corresponding social-posting entry.
Actions: POST to create, PUT to update, and DELETE to remove posts using the Surveys API endpoints.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
locationId, content, scheduleTime, mediaUrl
Trigger: Edits in PreciseFP trigger a PUT request to update the corresponding post in Surveys API.
Actions: Update post content, status, or media.
PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
locationId, id, content, status, mediaUrl
Trigger: When a post is deprecated in PreciseFP, delete the related post in Surveys API.
Actions: Delete the post via the DELETE endpoint.
DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
locationId, id
Streamlined automation without custom code
Faster go-to-market with ready-made endpoints
Tighter data consistency between PreciseFP and social posting
A quick glossary of essential elements and processes for integrating Surveys API with PreciseFP.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that allow one app to talk to another.
A specific URL path exposed by an API that performs an action.
The process of verifying identity and permissions before allowing access to API resources.
The data sent with an API request (usually JSON) that describes the action to perform.
Use PreciseFP triggers to generate a daily summary post via Surveys API and publish across social channels.
Link PreciseFP event data with Surveys API to publish event-driven posts.
Publish real-time feedback or poll results to social channels via the API.
Obtain API credentials for GHL and PreciseFP and configure scopes for social posting.
Set up the Surveys API endpoints in your PreciseFP workflows to create and manage posts.
Run test posts, verify responses, and monitor for errors with alerts.
Authentication between GHL and PreciseFP relies on secure API credentials. Generate an API key or OAuth token in GHL with the socialplanner/post.write scope, and keep tokens in a secure vault. Then configure PreciseFP to send requests to Surveys API using these credentials. Test the connection with a minimal post to verify success and enable error reporting to catch issues early.
The primary endpoints are POST, PUT, DELETE, and PATCH for /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts and its subpath. These allow creating and managing posts from PreciseFP to social channels. Map your post data (locationId, content, mediaUrl, scheduleTime) to the payload and test with a dummy location.
Yes. You can modify content via PUT to update an existing post or use PATCH for partial changes. Both actions reflect in the Surveys API and in connected destinations.
Required fields typically include locationId and content. Optional fields include scheduleTime and mediaUrl. The post id is used for updates or deletions after creation.
No deep coding is required if you use built-in connectors and workflow builders. Some light scripting or logic within PreciseFP can help map data fields correctly, but the core setup is configuration-based.
Handle errors with retries and exponential backoff, log request/response details, and set up alerts for failures. Use idempotent operations where possible to avoid duplicate posts.
View logs and metrics in both GHL and PreciseFP dashboards, monitor API response codes, and set up alerts for failures or latency. Regularly review post status and audit trails.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
