HighLevel

Send texts from HighLevel workflows through your own number instead of a rented one.

What you can do

  • Send texts from HighLevel workflows through your own number instead of a rented one.
  • Post a workflow’s webhook to a Text Hook and map the contact’s fields into a template.
  • Bring replies back to the contact in HighLevel with a little code of your own.

How it connects

  • Recommended

    Zapier

    BlueBot’s Zapier app has a Send Text action and instant triggers for incoming texts and every change of state.

  • Text Hook

    A Text Hook is a BlueBot address the app posts its own webhook to. You map its fields to a recipient and a template, and each post becomes a text.

  • API

    Your own code calls BlueBot’s REST API and listens to its signed webhooks.

Recipes

Three recipes to start from.

Set one up as written, or change it to fit how you work. The docs have the same recipes step by step.
01With a Text Hook

Text from a HighLevel workflow

Starts when

A HighLevel workflow reaches its webhook action

  1. Make a Text Hook in BlueBot and copy its address.
  2. Add a webhook action to your HighLevel workflow and paste the address.
  3. Run the workflow once, then map the contact’s phone and first name from the payload BlueBot kept.
  4. Write the template, and each run of the workflow sends a text from your number.

The text it sends

Hi {{first_name}}, it’s Alex from Summit Fitness. Your intro session is booked. Reply here if you need to change it.

From your own number

Text new contacts

Starts when

When a contact is created in HighLevel

  1. Start a Zap with HighLevel’s trigger for a new contact.
  2. Add BlueBot’s Send Text action and map the contact’s phone to To.
  3. Write the text with their first name mapped in.

03With the API

Add replies to the contact

Starts when

A text comes in (BlueBot’s message.received webhook)

  1. Point a BlueBot webhook for message.received at your own endpoint.
  2. Find the contact by the sender’s number through HighLevel’s API.
