Learn how to authorize your GHL Tasks API app to access data from hellonext and vice versa, including how to manage scopes and tokens.
Set up OAuth or API keys for hellonext to securely talk to the Tasks API, and test permissions.
Key endpoints include: POST /locations/:locationId/tasks/search; POST /locations/:locationId/tasks; GET /locations/:locationId/tasks; GET /locations/:locationId/tasks/:taskId; PATCH /locations/:locationId/tasks/:taskId; DELETE /locations/:locationId/tasks/:taskId; GET /locations/:locationId/tasks/count
Trigger: a new task is created or updated in hellonext and needs to reflect in the Tasks API.
Actions: map fields (title, due date, assignee) and push to the Tasks API.
POST /locations/:locationId/tasks/search
Required fields: locationId, title, status, dueDate
Trigger: tasks created or updated in GHL can trigger a pull into hellonext.
Actions: batch fetch using search filters and update hellonext tasks.
POST /locations/:locationId/tasks/search
Key fields: locationId, query, limit
Trigger: a new task in GHL triggers creation of a task in hellonext.
Actions: map task fields and set status mapping.
POST /locations/:locationId/tasks
Key fields: locationId, title, dueDate, priority
Automate manual data entry without writing code.
Build workflows with a visual editor and connect multiple apps.
Real-time data sync reduces lag and errors.
Understand the core elements: endpoints, triggers, actions, and data fields involved when linking GHL’s Tasks API with hellonext.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules and specifications that allows software applications to communicate with each other.
OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that allows apps to obtain limited access to user data without exposing credentials.
An endpoint is a specific URL in an API that performs a defined action, such as retrieving or creating data.
A webhook is a URL that a service calls in real time to deliver event data.
Automatically create a task in Tasks API whenever a new ticket is opened in hellonext, so your team can triage faster.
When a task hits a new status in GHL, update the corresponding task in hellonext to keep teams aligned.
Send a daily summary of tasks between GHL and hellonext to stakeholders.
Collect client ID, client secret, and required scopes for the Tasks API and hellonext.
Enter endpoints, map fields, and set up authentication flows.
Run tests, verify data mapping, and go live when everything passes.
Authenticating typically involves using OAuth 2.0. You’ll request an access token with the required scopes for locations/tasks.readonly and any additional permissions your workflow needs. After granting access, store and refresh tokens securely and test the connection in a sandbox environment. Ensure the app is whitelisted for your GHL account and Hellonext workspace.
Use the search endpoint to locate tasks and create new ones with the create endpoint. Common patterns include POST /locations/:locationId/tasks/search to filter tasks, and POST /locations/:locationId/tasks to create a new task. Map the response fields to Hellonext task fields for consistent data syncing.
No-code automation is a core benefit here. You can design triggers, actions, and data mappings in a visual workflow builder without writing code. This lets product, support, and ops teams ship integrations quickly and iterate safely.
Key mappings typically include: title, description, dueDate, status, assignee, and locationId. You’ll map between GHL task fields and Hellonext task fields to ensure consistent context and ownership across platforms.
Rate limits depend on API plan. Plan for bursts by batching requests where possible and using webhooks to receive updates instead of polling. Implement retry logic and exponential backoff to handle temporary outages gracefully.
Test in a sandbox with representative data. Validate authentication, field mappings, and end-to-end task creation and updates. Use sample payloads and monitor logs to confirm data integrity before going live.
Look for official sample payloads and endpoint docs in your GHL developer portal. If samples aren’t available, start with simple payloads for basic fields (title, dueDate, locationId) and expand mappings as you validate each step.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
