| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Runtime | Python 3.6+ (uses only standard library: urllib, json, , , , ) |
osresystime| External packages | None — zero pip install required |
| Environment variables | HIGHLEVEL_TOKEN (Primary — your Private Integration bearer token) |
HIGHLEVEL_LOCATION_ID (your sub-account Location ID) |
| Network access | HTTPS to services.leadconnectorhq.com only |
Base URL: https://services.leadconnectorhq.com
Required Headers: Authorization: Bearer $HIGHLEVEL_TOKEN + Version: 2021-07-28
Rate Limits: 100 requests/10 seconds burst, 200K/day per location
All API functions use pre-defined endpoint paths — there is no arbitrary HTTP request capability. Every user-supplied ID is validated against a strict alphanumeric regex (^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{1,128}$) before being included in any URL path, preventing path traversal and injection. The scripts use only Python's built-in urllib.request for all network calls. No shell commands, no external binaries, no file writes outside of stdout.
/highlevel-setupIf the user says "set up highlevel", "connect my GHL", or /highlevel-setup, run the setup wizard:
python3 scripts/setup-wizard.py
The wizard automatically: checks environment variables → guides Private Integration creation → tests the connection → pulls first 5 contacts as a quick win.
Log into app.gohighlevel.com
Switch to your Sub-Account (recommended for single-location use)
Click Settings (bottom-left gear icon)
Select Private Integrations in the left sidebar
Click "Create new Integration"
Enter a name (e.g., "Claude AI Assistant") and description
Grant only the scopes you need (least-privilege recommended):
| Use case | Recommended scopes |
|---|---|
| Contact management only | contacts.readonly, contacts.write |
| Contacts + messaging | Above + conversations.readonly, conversations.write, conversations/message.write |
| Full CRM (contacts, calendar, pipeline) | Above + calendars.readonly, calendars.write, opportunities.readonly, opportunities.write |
| Adding workflows & invoices | Above + workflows.readonly, invoices.readonly, invoices.write |
| Read-only reporting | contacts.readonly, opportunities.readonly, calendars.readonly, invoices.readonly, locations.readonly |
You can always add more scopes later in Settings → Private Integrations → Edit without regenerating the token.
Click Create → Copy the token IMMEDIATELY — it is shown only once and cannot be retrieved later
| Feature | Agency Integration | Sub-Account Integration |
|---|---|---|
| Created at | Agency Settings → Private Integrations | Sub-Account Settings → Private Integrations |
| Access scope | Agency + all sub-accounts (pass locationId) | Single location only |
| Available scopes | All scopes including locations.write, oauth.*, saas.*, snapshots.*, companies.readonly | Sub-account scopes only |
| Best for | Multi-location management, SaaS configurator | Single client integrations (recommended default) |
Recommendation: Start with a Sub-Account integration and the minimum scopes you need. You can upgrade to Agency-level later if you need multi-location access.
/location/ in app.gohighlevel.com/v2/location/{LOCATION_ID}/...export HIGHLEVEL_TOKEN="your-private-integration-token"
export HIGHLEVEL_LOCATION_ID="your-location-id"
Run python3 scripts/ghl-api.py test_connection — should return location name and status.
