GHL CRM — GoHighLevel Integration for OpenClaw

Complete GoHighLevel CRM integration. Manage contacts, pipelines, conversations, appointments, and workflows through the GHL API v2.

Quick Start

export GHL_API_KEY="your-private-integration-token"
export GHL_LOCATION_ID="your-location-id"
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/ghl_api.py contacts search "john@example.com"

Authentication

GHL uses Private Integration Tokens (API v2). Get yours from:

1. Go to Settings → Integrations → Private Integrations in your GHL sub-account
2. Create a new integration, enable the scopes you need
3. Copy the API key — this is your GHL_API_KEY

The GHL_LOCATION_ID is your sub-account/location ID (found in Settings → Business Info or the URL).
