That means less setup, fewer steps, and way more automation firepower. Whether you’re running high-converting funnels or qualifying leads at scale, your bots just got a major upgrade.

Here at GHL Growth Garage, we’re breaking down the two new updates that make this possible and how to use them today.

What’s New about Bot Workflow Automation

GoHighLevel’s bots used to be limited in how much they could do with each interaction. That’s now a thing of the past.

Automate marketing, manage leads, and grow faster with GoHighLevel.

Here’s what just got better:

Add Contact Info – Now Up to 20 Fields
Previously, bots could only update 3 contact fields. That limited your ability to collect detailed lead information in a single chat. Now? You can map up to 20 fields from your bot into the CRM.

This means your bot can gather:

  • Email, phone, name
  • Service interest or budget
  • Custom fields like pain points or location
  • Lead source, appointment preferences, and more

All of this data goes straight into the contact record—no manual work required.

Trigger a Workflow – Now Up to 5 Triggers
The number of workflows that can be triggered from one bot goal has jumped from 3 to 5. You now have more flexibility to automate multiple steps from a single interaction.

Example: After a user completes a chat flow, you could:

  • Tag the lead
  • Add to a Smart List
  • Assign a team member
  • Send an email
  • Start a drip campaign

That’s all possible now with just one bot action.

  • Smarter Bots: Collect more lead data right in the chat
  • Less Manual Work: CRM updates and automations run behind the scenes
