For busy agencies, this is a major step forward. It reduces the number of platforms needed to keep operations running smoothly and helps prevent sync issues between systems.

Each one can now be used inside the Workflow Builder without needing Zapier or custom code. These updates turn GHL into one of the most flexible workflow automation tools available today.
Here’s a closer look at what’s included for each platform:
Automate marketing, manage leads, and grow faster with GoHighLevel.

Airtable Integration
Users can now manage Airtable records from inside GHL. It’s easier to keep projects, leads, or client data updated across both systems.
Triggers:
- New Record: Fires when a new row is added in Airtable.
- Updated Record: Starts a workflow when any existing row changes.
Actions:
- Create Record: Adds a new row to any table.
- Update Record: Edits fields like status, priority, or notes.
- Find Record: Searches based on ID, email, or any other field.
- Delete Record: Removes a row from Airtable when it’s no longer needed.
ClickUp Integration
ClickUp is now integrated with workflows, giving teams a smoother way to manage tasks and projects. Instead of switching tabs, they can create tasks, track progress, and organize docs directly inside their CRM activity.
With this setup, workflow automation tools make it easier to keep everything connected and moving forward.
Triggers:
- New Task
- Task Updates
- New List or Folder
- New Comments, Attachments, or Reactions
Actions:
- Create Task: Add a new task with assignee, deadline, and priority.
- Update Task: Change task details automatically as deals move forward.
- Archive or Delete Task: Clean up when tasks are done.
- Create Space, Folder, or List: Set up ClickUp structures from workflows.
- Post Comments or Attachments: Add notes, files, or updates to tasks.
- Create or Edit Documents: Build proposals or docs from form data.
- Update Custom Fields: Add or change extra data on any task.
- Find Tasks, Docs, or Users: Search for content to support automation.
Google Contacts Integration
Google Contacts now syncs directly with HighLevel. This makes it easier to keep contact info current between the CRM and Google.
Triggers:
- New Contact: Starts a workflow when someone is added in Google.
- New Group: Triggers when a new contact group is created.
Actions:
- Create Contact: Add a person into Google Contacts from a form or pipeline.
- Update Contact: Change phone numbers, email, or company info.
- Find or Create Contact: Avoids duplicates by checking for matches first.
- Create Group: Build a group for follow-ups or calendar invites.
- Add to Group: Place contacts into groups automatically.
Notion Integration
For companies managing tasks or content in Notion, HighLevel now makes things simpler. The update allows users to trigger and edit Notion pages without leaving the platform. When paired with workflow automation tools, this connection helps businesses save time and keep processes organized.
Triggers:
- New Database Item
- Updated Database Item
- Updated Page
Actions:
- Create Page or Database Entry: Start new records as workflows run.
- Update Database Item: Keep project or client info current.
- Add Content or Comment: Use workflow steps to push in new content or notes.
- Archive or Restore Item: Manage what shows in Notion.
- Retrieve Pages or Data: Pull existing content for use in a follow-up.
- Find or Create: Checks if something exists before making a new record.
These tools help reduce the number of apps teams need to manage. More importantly, they allow HighLevel users to create smarter workflows with fewer manual steps. These updates turn GHL into a stronger platform for anyone relying on workflow automation tools to keep things running clean.
What’s Changed with Workflow Automation Tools
In the past, anyone who wanted to connect Airtable, ClickUp, Notion, or Google Contacts to HighLevel had to use a third-party tool. That often meant setting up a Zapier flow, building a webhook, or using a platform like Make. It worked, but it added more steps and more things to manage.
The update puts all four platforms right inside the GoHighLevel Workflow Builder. Extra tools are no longer required because users can now add triggers and actions in the same way they handle other steps.
It’s a clean move that makes workflow automation tools more practical and user-friendly
Here’s what’s different now:
- Everything runs inside GHL without external apps
- Accounts connect through a secure login or API key
- ClickUp triggers fire right away using webhooks
- Airtable, Notion, and Google Contacts check for updates every five minutes
- Each tool shows up by name inside the workflow steps for easier access
This update is a big shift for anyone who depends on workflow automation tools to manage tasks, leads, or contacts. It cuts down on time, reduces errors, and makes workflows easier to maintain over time.
Why This Matters for GHL Users
Agencies often run into a simple problem. Their tools don’t talk to each other. Leads show up in HighLevel, but tasks live in ClickUp. Contacts are saved in Google. Project notes might sit in Airtable or Notion. Without proper connection, someone always ends up copying and pasting between platforms.
The new update brings all four tools into GoHighLevel. Users can now set up clear workflows that cover tasks, contacts, and projects without switching platforms. By using workflow automation tools, managing everything becomes more efficient and less time-consuming.
Here’s what that looks like in real use:
- A new lead updates or creates a record in Airtable
- When a deal moves to the next stage, a ClickUp task is created automatically
- Contact details from a form go straight into Google Contacts
- A Notion proposal page builds itself when a pipeline stage changes
Everything runs inside the Workflow Builder, making it easier to manage tasks in one place. With GoHighLevel and other workflow automation tools, there’s no need to switch between accounts or worry about broken connections.
A real GHL user said:
ohh… interesting… cannot wait to see what this one is about.. Thank you!“
Another user shared,
I just saw that in workflows and was surprised. I don’t use it but seeing it in there with ClickUp too was very cool.”
For teams that rely on workflow automation tools to run daily tasks, this is the kind of update that actually saves time and avoids mistakes.

Pro Tips for Better Workflow Automation
Setting up a workflow is one thing. Keeping it clean and useful is another. These tips can help users get the most out of the new features without running into issues later. A few simple choices can go a long way when using these workflow automation tools.
- Use “Find or Create” to avoid duplicates. When working with contacts or database items, choose the “Find or Create” option. It checks if the record already exists before adding a new one. This works well with Google Contacts and Notion.
- Keep your field names consistent. Make sure fields like email or name match across platforms. This helps with record searches and makes sure the right info gets updated.
- Use Google Contact groups based on pipeline tags. Create groups that reflect where someone is in the pipeline. For example, contacts with a “Customer” tag can be added to a Google group for better calendar or email targeting.
- Let ClickUp handle tasks that need to happen fast. ClickUp runs on real-time triggers. Use it for actions that need to move right away, like task creation or time-sensitive updates.
- Make use of document steps in Notion and ClickUp. Both tools allow comments and content to be added from a workflow. This is a great way to leave notes, update project pages, or create documents during handoffs.
- Understand how polling works. Airtable, Notion, and Google Contacts check for updates every five minutes. This is normal. If something does not trigger right away, wait a few minutes and try again.
- Test your workflow before using it live. Always run a test version first. Make sure the fields are mapped correctly and the triggers work as expected. This avoids cleanup later.
Using these workflow automation tools with care helps agencies work smarter. A few extra steps in setup often lead to better results and fewer problems over time.
