Authenticate calls to the Users API using an API key issued in GHL. Store the key securely in WHMCS settings and rotate it regularly.
Register WHMCS as an application in GHL, generate client credentials, and grant necessary scopes such as socialplanner/tag.readonly to enable read access to tags and analytics.
– GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags — fetch tags for a specific location – POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details — retrieve detailed tag information – socialplanner/statistics.readonly — read access to statistics – POST /social-media-posting/statistics — submit or refresh statistics
Trigger: when a new location is added in WHMCS or a location’s tags need refreshing.
Actions: call GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags to pull current tags and map them to WHMCS records.
GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags
locationId, authorization header, optional locationId metadata
Trigger: on tag detail requests or scheduled sync.
Actions: POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details to get detailed tag data and push to WHMCS fields.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details
locationId, tagDetails payload, authorization
Trigger: daily batch or on-demand request for metrics.
Actions: GET socialplanner/statistics.readonly and POST /social-media-posting/statistics to populate WHMCS dashboards.
socialplanner/statistics.readonly; POST /social-media-posting/statistics
dateRange, metrics, auth
Automate customer tagging and reporting without custom development.
Streamline marketing workflows by syncing WHMCS data with GHL analytics and campaigns.
Reduce manual data entry and improve data accuracy across platforms.
A concise glossary of terms and processes to help implement the WHMCS to Users API integration.
A web address you call to perform a specific action, typically with authentication.
Proving identity to access the API, typically via API keys or OAuth tokens.
GET, POST, PUT, DELETE — verbs used to interact with endpoints.
The maximum number of requests allowed in a given time window.
Automatically apply tags in GHL when a new customer is created in WHMCS, enabling instant segmentation.
Push campaign metrics from GHL into WHMCS notes or invoices for complete visibility.
Generate weekly performance reports in WHMCS using data from the Users API.
Generate and securely store API keys in GHL, note the scopes, and configure WHMCS to use them.
Enter endpoint URLs in WHMCS, map fields, and enable webhooks if available.
Run tests, verify data flow, and go live after validation.
No extensive coding is required. Use WHMCS settings to input API credentials and map fields between WHMCS and the Users API. The integration relies on standard REST calls and can be set up via the WHMCS admin panel. If you prefer a no-code approach, middleware like Zapier can bridge WHMCS and GHL using the endpoints described.
Authentication is handled with API keys issued in GHL and applied in WHMCS. Store keys securely, restrict scopes, and rotate keys regularly. OAuth tokens can be used if your setup supports it, but API keys are common for this flow.
Essential endpoints include: GET /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags to fetch tags, POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/tags/details for tag details, and endpoints for statistics such as socialplanner/statistics.readonly and POST /social-media-posting/statistics to surface metrics in WHMCS.
Security centers on strong API key management: keep keys in a secure vault, limit scopes to what’s needed, monitor usage, and revoke keys if compromise is suspected. Use HTTPS for all calls and rotate credentials regularly.
Yes. You can automate tagging, tagging-based workflows, and reporting by scheduling calls to the endpoints and pushing results into WHMCS records, invoices, or dashboards. This reduces manual steps and keeps data aligned.
If you need to revoke access, remove the API keys, disable the app in GHL, and rotate any dependent credentials in WHMCS. Re-keying helps prevent unauthorized access and maintains security.
