Integrations
Ken + GoHighLevel Integration
Ken sends five email events (sent, clicked, replied, interested and unsubscribed) to the matching GoHighLevel contact through OutboundSync, a partner app that supports GoHighLevel in beta, in near real time.
What the Integration Does
In short Sends Ken email events to GoHighLevel through OutboundSync, one way.
Ken does not connect to GoHighLevel directly today. OutboundSync, a partner app, receives Ken's webhooks and writes each email event as a plain-text Note on the matching GoHighLevel contact, and creates the contact when none matches. It matches by the email address in each event.
Your team sees sends, clicks, replies, interested leads and unsubscribes in the contact's Notes in GoHighLevel, next to the rest of your sales activity.
