Authenticate requests to the Workflows API using a GHL API name and a secure access token. Follow best practices for key management and least privilege.
Establish a trusted connection to ActiveCampaign by providing app credentials and ensuring the integration has the needed scopes (surveys.readonly) to read survey data and submissions.
GET /surveys/ — Retrieve all surveys GET /surveys/submissions — Retrieve all submissions for surveys
Trigger: A new submission is received via GET /surveys/submissions. This starts a workflow to push data into ActiveCampaign.
Actions: Create or update the contact in ActiveCampaign using the respondent’s email as the key; map fields such as first_name, last_name, and answers; optionally apply a survey-related tag.
GET /surveys/submissions
email, first_name, last_name, survey_id, submission_id, submitted_at
Trigger: When a survey is updated or a new submission occurs; detect changes via GET /surveys/ or GET /surveys/submissions.
Actions: Update ActiveCampaign contact fields (e.g., survey_status, last_modified); optionally append a note with submission_id; ensure mapping to ActiveCampaign custom fields.
GET /surveys/ and GET /surveys/submissions
survey_id, submission_id, last_modified, status
Trigger: A new submission arrives or a status change is detected via the surveys endpoints.
Actions: Create a task or note in ActiveCampaign, or start an automation email to the contact; log event data in a custom field.
GET /surveys/submissions
submission_id, status, timestamp, email
No-code automation: Build visual workflows to move survey data into ActiveCampaign without writing code.
Faster campaign rollout: Use ready-made triggers and actions to activate surveys-driven campaigns quickly.
Unified data: Sync survey responses with contact records for richer automations and reporting.
A concise glossary of terms and core processes used when connecting the GHL Workflows API to ActiveCampaign.
A specific URL path and HTTP method that performs a defined action in an API, such as listing surveys.
A callback URL that receives notifications when events occur, enabling real-time integrations.
The maximum number of requests allowed in a time window to protect the service from overload.
Methods used to verify identity and authorize calls, typically tokens or keys.
Automatically enrich ActiveCampaign contacts with survey responses and metadata when new submissions arrive.
Trigger automations in ActiveCampaign based on survey feedback scores or completion status.
Schedule regular batch sync of survey data to keep ActiveCampaign records up to date.
Obtain your GHL API credentials and authorize the ActiveCampaign connection with the required scope (surveys.readonly).
Select GET /surveys/ and GET /surveys/submissions, then map fields to ActiveCampaign contact fields.
Run test submissions, verify data flow, then enable automated workflows.
No, you don’t need to code. The integration uses no-code workflows and visual builders to connect GHL Workflows API with ActiveCampaign.\nFollow the steps above to authenticate, map data, and trigger actions.
Endpoints required: GET /surveys/ and GET /surveys/submissions for data retrieval. You may also reference related endpoints if you extend functionality.\nDocumentation provides parameter details, authentication methods, and sample payloads.
Use secure tokens or OAuth-like keys, keep credentials secret, rotate keys periodically.\nLimit exposure by using scopes such as surveys.readonly and applying least privilege.
Yes. Map ActiveCampaign custom fields such as survey_status, submission_id, and responses to corresponding fields in ActiveCampaign.\nUse consistent field names and verify mappings in a test run.
Test with sandbox data or a staging ActiveCampaign list before going live.\nCheck logs and error messages, then fix mappings or credentials as needed.
API quotas depend on your plan; monitor rate limits in the integration dashboard.\nIf you approach limits, implement batching or exponential backoff.
API documentation and endpoints are available in your GHL developer portal and ActiveCampaign API docs.\nConsult the endpoints list (GET /surveys/, GET /surveys/submissions) for starters.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
