Calls from AWS Lambda to the Users API are secured with API keys or OAuth tokens. Store credentials in AWS Secrets Manager, rotate them regularly, and bind access to the Lambda execution role.
Protect your Lambda with least-privilege IAM roles, environment-scoped credentials, and secret management. Use VPC endpoints and clean key rotation to minimize risk.
– GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags – POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details – socialplanner/statistics.readonly – POST /social-media-posting/statistics – Additional endpoints documented in the API reference.
Trigger: a new or updated tag in the social planner fires AWS Lambda, which fetches current tags via GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags.
Actions: Retrieve tag details with GET and update details with POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details as needed.
Methods: GET for reads; POST for updates.
Key fields: locationId, tagId, tagDetails
Trigger: AWS Lambda computes statistics and posts to POST /social-media-posting/statistics.
Actions: Submit metrics to the statistics endpoint; read analyses with socialplanner/statistics.readonly.
Methods: POST for submissions; GET for reading stats.
Key fields: locationId, metric, value, timestamp
Trigger: a scheduled Lambda job processes a batch of records and sends updates to the Users API.
Actions: Bulk submit tag details and statistics across multiple locationId entries.
Methods: POST for batch operations.
Key fields: batchId, locationId, timestamp
Automate workflows without writing code: connect endpoints and trigger actions with clicks.
Rapid testing and deployment: change logic in Lambda and reflect changes in the Users API instantly.
Scalability and reliability: Lambda scales with demand while the Users API handles data processing.
Definitions for endpoints, triggers, actions, methods, authentication, and webhooks used in this AWS Lambda to Users API integration.
A URL that exposes a specific operation in the API, such as reading tags or updating tag details.
An event that starts an automated workflow in Lambda, such as a new tag or a scheduled batch.
Methods to prove identity and authorize requests, such as API keys or OAuth tokens.
A URL that receives events in real time from an API.
Trigger Lambda on tag events and update the Users API to reflect changes in real time.
Push computed metrics to the Users API and surface them in dashboards.
Run batch cleanup and archival tasks in Lambda and sync status with the Users API.
Create and securely store API credentials; configure Lambda with IAM roles and Secrets Manager.
Define which endpoints to call and how triggers will start the Lambda.
Deploy your function, enable logging, and review metrics to optimize.
Yes. You can authenticate from AWS Lambda to the Users API using API keys or OAuth tokens. Create a restricted API key in the Users API dashboard and store it securely in AWS Secrets Manager. Test the flow with a small test function to confirm access. If you rely on OAuth, implement a refresh flow and rotate tokens regularly. Keep credentials out of code, bind access to the Lambda role, and monitor usage with CloudWatch or your preferred monitoring tool.
Start with the core endpoints to verify connectivity: read tags with GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags and update tag details with POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details. Validate authentication and error handling. Then add the statistics endpoints (socialplanner/statistics.readonly and POST /social-media-posting/statistics) to test data flows end-to-end.
To test locally, use AWS SAM CLI or a Lambda emulator to simulate function execution and HTTP calls to the Users API. Set up a local secrets store or environment variables for credentials. When you’re ready, deploy to a test environment and run end-to-end tests with real endpoints and synthetic data.
Yes. Lambda scales automatically with demand, and the Users API should be prepared for concurrent requests. Implement retries with exponential backoff and idempotent operations to prevent duplicates during bursts. Consider configuring rate limits and circuit breakers to protect backend services during spikes.
No-code patterns can cover many common flows, but some wiring and error handling typically require a small amount of code in a Lambda function. You can use templates or frameworks to handle authentication, endpoint mapping, and retries. For complex workflows, plan a light code base that is easy to maintain and test.
API endpoint details live in the Users API reference; look for the endpoint list and example requests. You can also view sample calls in the docs and test with a mock client. If you still can’t locate something, contact support or consult the endpoint explorer in your GHL account.
Follow security best practices: use least-privilege IAM roles, rotate API keys, and store secrets securely. Turn on logging and set up alerts for failed calls or token expiry. Always use HTTPS, validate inputs, and implement proper error handling to avoid exposing sensitive data.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
