Customer email and texts sent from the builder's own CRM identity

When GoHighLevel carries a channel, the message goes out through that builder's own CRM location — their sender identity, their deliverability, their conversation thread.

What it is

Adapters that resolve a CRM contact in the account's location (looking up by email or phone first, creating only when needed) and post the message to the conversations endpoint. The From identity is deliberately not set, so the CRM uses the identity configured at the tenant's own location.

Two message bubbles side by side: one sent from the builder's own CRM identity, one from a generic platform address, with the wrong one crossed out. Sample data — no customer information appears here.
How it works
  1. 1The adapter resolves the account's credentials.
  2. 2It searches for an existing contact by email, then by normalised phone, to avoid duplicates.
  3. 3If none exists it creates one, tagged so tenant automations can exclude app-created contacts.
  4. 4A duplicate-create race re-runs the lookup rather than failing.
  5. 5The message is posted to the conversations endpoint; an HTTP rejection is non-retryable, a network exception is retryable.
Why we built it

The From decision is called out explicitly: 'Deliberately NO emailFrom — GHL uses the From identity configured at the tenant's own location, which is the correct multi-tenant sender.' The lookup-before-create order is also deliberate: it is 'correct even if the caller's contactId belongs to a different location'.

The problem
  • A shared sender identity would have made every builder's mail look like the platform's.
  • Creating before looking up produced duplicate CRM contacts.
  • A contact id from another location would have addressed the wrong record.
Sound familiar?
What you get
Messages carry the builder's own sender identity.
The CRM conversation thread stays intact.
Duplicate contacts are avoided even under a create race.
