Authenticate requests from Acuity Scheduling to the Workflows API using an API key or OAuth token. Store credentials securely and rotate keys regularly.
Acuity Scheduling authentication uses API tokens. Keep tokens private and apply least-privilege access.
GET /surveys/ | GET /surveys/submissions | (Additional endpoints exist but are not required for this page)
Trigger: New survey submission detected via GET /surveys/submissions
Actions: Create or update an Acuity Scheduling appointment, notify the team, and log the event
GET /surveys/submissions
survey_id, submission_id, respondent_email, timestamp
Trigger: Daily or scheduled export of submissions
Actions: Create/update contacts in Acuity Scheduling and attach follow-up tasks
GET /surveys/submissions
survey_id, submission_id, response_summary, timestamp
Trigger: New submission event
GET /surveys/submissions
submission_id, respondent_name, email, timestamp
Build powerful automation without writing code
Reduce manual data entry and human error

Glossary definitions for API, endpoints, webhooks, and authentication used in this integration guide.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that enables two applications to communicate and exchange data.
A specific URL on an API that performs an action or returns data.
A real-time message sent to another service when a defined event occurs.
Methods to verify identity before allowing API access (API keys, OAuth tokens).
When a new user completes a trial survey, automatically schedule an Acuity Scheduling onboarding appointment and send a welcome email.
Schedule reminder tasks in Acuity Scheduling based on survey responses and upcoming deadlines.
Send Slack or email alerts and create follow-up tasks when specific survey answers are submitted.
Obtain your Workflows API credentials and your Acuity Scheduling API token.
Set up a trigger for new survey submissions and map fields to Acuity Scheduling fields.
Run a test, verify data flows, and enable automatic syncing between systems.
The Workflows API provides a programmable way to automate processes between apps. By connecting Acuity Scheduling, you can trigger calendar actions based on survey responses and automate reminders. This reduces manual steps and ensures timely scheduling events. You can start with a simple trigger on new submissions and expand later with additional endpoints as needed.
No-code is possible through the workflow builder and prebuilt triggers. While some familiarity with API concepts helps, you can often set up integrations using visual builders or templates. For advanced scenarios, you may introduce lightweight scripting or use a middleware to map data between systems.
Key endpoints include GET /surveys/ to list surveys and GET /surveys/submissions to fetch responses. Depending on your needs, you can also access related endpoints for updating records and creating scheduling events. Start with the two endpoints above and extend as your automation grows.
Authentication relies on API keys or OAuth tokens. Use least-privilege access, rotate credentials regularly, and store secrets securely. For production, consider IP allowlists and secure vaults to minimize exposure.
Yes. You can map fields between Workflows API and Acuity Scheduling, including custom survey fields to appointment details, contact data, and reminders. Data mapping ensures the right information appears in the right places.
Test in a staging environment by simulating submissions and verifying calendar events, notifications, and data synchronization. Validate field mappings and error handling before going live.
Consult the developer docs for both systems, join community forums, and access support from your integration platform. If you need tailored guidance, consider a migrator or consultant who specializes in GHL and Acuity Scheduling integrations.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
