GoHighLevel Webhook Integration: Automate Workflows with Make (Integromat)

TL;DR

You can send GoHighLevel workflow data to Make (Integromat) using the Webhook action.
Simply trigger a workflow (e.g., form submission), add a Webhook POST, paste the Make-generated webhook URL, map your fields (like name and email), and run a test.
This connects GHL to thousands of external apps for instant automation.

Step-by-Step Setup (Verified for 2025)

1. Create a Workflow in GoHighLevel

• Go to Automation → Workflows → Create Workflow → Start from Scratch.
• Choose a trigger like Form Submitted or Contact Created.
• Select the specific form or funnel relevant to your process.
  (Example: Free course signup form for a ChatGPT course.)

2. Add a Webhook Action

• Inside the workflow, click + Add Action → Webhook.
• Choose POST as the method.
• You’ll need a destination URL from your Make scenario.

3. Create a Webhook in Make (Integromat)

• In Make, click + Create a new scenario.
• Search and select Webhooks → Custom Webhook → Add.
• Name your webhook (e.g., “GHL Tutorial Hook”).
• Copy the generated Webhook URL.

4. Paste the URL Back into GoHighLevel

• Paste the copied URL into your webhook action in GHL.
• Under Custom Data, add the fields you want to send (e.g., first name, email).
• Map them using the GHL variable selector.
• Save the action.

5. Run a Test

• Click Publish your workflow.
• Choose Test Workflow → Select a Contact to trigger it.
• In Make, click Run Once and wait to see if the green checkmark confirms data receipt.
• Once the webhook receives the payload, you can connect Make to any downstream app (ActiveCampaign, GetResponse, MailerLite, etc.).

6. Map Fields in Make

• Inside your chosen app module, map the GHL data fields (e.g., email, firstName) to your target system’s structure.
• Save the scenario, turn it ON, and test it again from GHL.

Verified Capabilities and Limitations (as of 2025)

✅ Supported by GoHighLevel Workflows
Both standard Webhook actions and Custom Webhook (Premium) are supported.

✅ POST and GET methods available
POST is most common for integrations like Make, but GET can be used for simpler query calls.

✅ Supported Data Fields
You can map any contact, form, or funnel field available within the workflow context.

⚠️ Limitations

• Response handling: GHL does not process responses returned from the webhook target.
• Execution limits: Advanced or premium webhooks (with headers, payloads) fall under LC Premium limits.
• Inbound webhooks: Use the “Inbound Webhook” trigger if you want Make or another platform to send data into GHL instead.
• Testing: Always test using a real contact; synthetic runs may not show full payloads.

Best Practice Tips

• Use naming conventions for webhook actions (e.g., “Webhook → Make → Add Lead”).
• Include email, firstName, and source in every payload for tracking.
• Keep logs in Make by enabling “Save History” for troubleshooting.
• Use Cloudflare or secure HTTPS for custom endpoints if sending data to your own server.

FAQ

1. Can I send data both ways between GHL and Make?
Yes, outbound via “Webhook Action” and inbound via “Inbound Webhook” trigger. Use both for full sync automation.

2. Do I need a paid Make plan?
No, basic webhook triggers are available on Make’s free tier (limited operations).

3. What if my webhook doesn’t trigger?
Check that your workflow is published, that your trigger conditions match, and test with a real contact submission.

4. How do I add authentication to my webhook?
Use the Custom Webhook (Premium) action to add headers, bearer tokens, or query parameters.

5. Can I send multiple webhooks in one workflow?
Yes, you can chain them—each can target a different Make scenario or service.
