Why Integrate GoHighLevel with Your Agent?

GoHighLevel is an all-in-one platform for marketing and sales. Integrating it with SmythOS allows you to build powerful, end-to-end automations that connect every part of your business.

  • Automate Lead Capture and Nurturing: Create agents that capture leads from any source (web forms, social media, ads) and instantly create a Contact in GoHighLevel, add them to a Workflow, and create a sales Opportunity.
  • Streamline Sales Operations: Build an agent that, when a deal is moved to a new stage in your pipeline, automatically creates and assigns a Task to the sales rep, such as "Send follow-up email."
  • Data Synchronization: Keep your GoHighLevel CRM perfectly in sync with your other business tools. An agent can update contact information in GoHighLevel whenever it changes in your accounting software or e-commerce platform.
  • Centralized Task Management: Use agents to create tasks in GoHighLevel based on events from other applications, ensuring all your team's to-dos are in one place.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, please ensure you have the following:

  • An active SmythOS account. (Sign up here).
  • A GoHighLevel account.
  • A GoHighLevel API Key (either for a specific Location or for your entire Agency).

Getting Started With GoHighLevel

The connection between SmythOS and GoHighLevel is configured using a secure API Key.

Step 1: Get Your GoHighLevel API Key

GoHighLevel has two types of keys. Choose the one that fits your needs:

  • Location API Key: For accessing data within a single sub-account.
    1. Log in to your GoHighLevel dashboard and switch to the desired sub-account.
    2. Go to Settings > API Keys (under the "Business Info" section in some views).
    3. Click to generate or copy your Location API Key.
  • Agency API Key: For agency-level access across multiple sub-accounts.
    1. From your main Agency dashboard, go to Settings > API Keys.
    2. Here you can find your Agency API Key.

Step 2: Store Your API Key in SmythOS Vault

Your API Key is a sensitive credential. Use the SmythOS Vault to store it securely.

  1. In your SmythOS dashboard, navigate to the Vault.
  2. Create a new secret and paste your GoHighLevel API Key as the value. Give it a memorable name, like gohighlevel_location_key or gohighlevel_agency_key.
  3. For more details, see the Vault Documentation.

Step 3: Configure a GoHighLevel Component

  1. In your SmythOS agent graph, drag and drop any GoHighLevel component.
  2. Click the component to open its Settings panel.
  3. In the API Key field, select the secret you saved in the Vault.
  4. Your connection is now configured for that component.
Heads-up
You must add the API Key from the Vault to each GoHighLevel component you use. This ensures all your API calls are properly authenticated.

Best Practices & Advanced Tips

  • Secure Your API Keys: Always store your GoHighLevel API Keys in the SmythOS Vault. Remember that Location keys and Agency keys have different levels of access.
  • Understand the GHL Hierarchy: GoHighLevel is structured into Agencies, which contain Locations (sub-accounts). Most day-to-day operations (like managing contacts and opportunities) happen at the Location level and require a Location API Key.
  • Use Search Before Create: To avoid creating duplicate contacts, it's a best practice to use the Search Contact By Email component first. If no contact is found, then proceed to Create Contact.
  • Dynamic Workflows: Use the "Get" components (like Get Pipelines or Get All Tags) to programmatically find the IDs you need for "Create" or "Update" actions, making your agents more robust and less reliant on hardcoded IDs.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

  • Error: 401 Unauthorized

    • Cause: The API Key is incorrect, invalid, or you are using a Location key for an Agency-level endpoint (or vice-versa).
    • Solution: Verify that the API Key in your SmythOS Vault is correct. Ensure you are using the appropriate key type (Location vs. Agency) for the component you are using.
  • Error: 404 Not Found

    • Cause: An incorrect ID was provided (e.g., list_id, contactId, pipelineId).
    • Solution: Double-check all IDs for typos. Use the "Get" or "List" components to verify that the resource you are trying to access exists.
  • Contact/Opportunity Not Created

    • Cause: A required field may be missing, or the data may be in an invalid format.
    • Solution: Check all required inputs for the component. For example, the status for an opportunity must be one of "open", "won", or "lost". Examine the Response output for detailed error messages from the GoHighLevel API.

What's Next?

You are now ready to build powerful sales and marketing automations with the SmythOS GoHighLevel Integration!

Consider these ideas:

  • Build an Agent That...

    • Manages the entire lead-to-customer pipeline. It captures a lead from a form, creates a Contact, creates an Opportunity, adds the contact to a Workflow, and creates a follow-up Task for a sales rep.
    • Syncs data with your accounting software. When an opportunity's status is updated to "won" in GoHighLevel, an agent creates a new customer and a draft invoice in your accounting platform.
    • Acts as a lead qualification bot. It engages with a new lead via an automated chat or email sequence, asks qualifying questions, and then updates the contact's custom fields and tags in GoHighLevel based on their answers.
  • Explore Other Integrations:

    • When a new contact is created in GoHighLevel, trigger an agent to also add them to a specific email list in Mailchimp or Klaviyo.
    • Connect GoHighLevel to a payment processor like Stripe. When a new customer is created in Stripe, create or update the corresponding contact in GoHighLevel.
    • Use a scheduling tool integration to book appointments, then create a contact and a follow-up task in GoHighLevel for that appointment.
