GET CONNECTED
Two ways to start
Connect the GoHighLevel location you want to use, then send from a configured workflow or import contacts for a campaign in Texto.
Start in GoHighLevel
Find Texto in the GoHighLevel Marketplace. Search for “Texto” there or open the listing directly. Follow the permissions shown during installation.
View Texto in the MarketplaceStart in Texto
Open Import from CRM, choose GoHighLevel and authorise the location you want to connect. No CSV export or Zapier is needed for contact import.
Create a Texto accountTo send from a GoHighLevel workflow, configure Texto as the SMS provider for the connected location. Importing contacts for a campaign in Texto is a separate path.
WORKFLOW SMS
Send SMS from a GoHighLevel workflow
Use Texto for SMS that starts inside GoHighLevel, such as follow-ups and appointment reminders. Configure SMS sending for the location before testing a workflow.
- 01
Connect the location
Find Texto in the GoHighLevel Marketplace and connect the location you want to use to your Texto account.
- 02
Set up SMS sending
Configure Texto as the SMS provider for that location. Importing contacts into Texto alone does not set the workflow's provider.
- 03
Add the SMS action
In your GoHighLevel workflow, add an SMS action and write the message for the contact you have permission to text.
- 04
Test and check the send
Run the workflow with a contact who has a valid mobile number. Check the message and your available Texto credits before using it with a wider audience.
The provider setup is distinct from the OAuth contact import. GoHighLevel screens and available SMS options may differ by account; follow the options shown for your location.
CONTACT IMPORT

- 01
Connect your location
In Texto, open Import from CRM, select GoHighLevel and authorise access to your GoHighLevel location.
- 02

- 03
Check your audience
Review the imported contacts and make sure you have the right consent for the message you want to send.
- 04
Send from Texto
Write the SMS in Texto, review it and send your campaign. Australian SMS costs 3c AUD per SMS part.
CUSTOMER ACTIVITY
Choose what appears back in GoHighLevel
After connecting, open GoHighLevel settings in Texto. Turn write-back on and choose whether to record outbound messages, inbound replies, delivery status and opt-outs against matching contacts.
Outbound sends
Inbound replies
Delivery updates
Opt-outs
Older connections may need to reconnect to grant write-back permissions. Where conversation-provider configuration is available, messages can appear in Conversations; otherwise Texto may record them as contact notes. Reply handling needs a number that can receive replies, such as the optional Dedicated Number.

Australian SMS pricing for agencies
Send to Australian mobiles for 3c AUD per SMS part. There is no monthly platform fee or contract for standard sending, and new accounts include five free credits. A Dedicated Number for replies is optional at $15 per month.
If something does not look right
No contacts imported
Check you connected the intended GoHighLevel location and that the contacts have usable Australian mobile numbers.
Write-back not available
Reconnect an older GoHighLevel connection if Texto asks for updated permissions, then check your write-back settings.
Activity appears as notes
A Conversations entry needs conversation-provider configuration. Without it, Texto may add a note to the matching contact instead.
Workflow not sending
Check that Texto is configured as the SMS provider for the same GoHighLevel location, the workflow has an SMS action, the contact has a valid mobile number and your Texto account has credits.
GoHighLevel SMS questions
How do I install Texto from the GoHighLevel Marketplace?
Search for Texto in the GoHighLevel Marketplace, or open the Texto listing linked on this page. Follow the installation and permissions shown there, then connect your GoHighLevel location to Texto. The Marketplace's sign-in and install screens may vary by account.
Open the Texto listingCan I send SMS from GoHighLevel workflows?
Yes. Connect the relevant GoHighLevel location to Texto and configure Texto as its SMS provider for sending. Then add an SMS action to your GoHighLevel workflow and test it with a contact who has a valid mobile number. Importing contacts for Texto campaigns is a separate option; it does not configure the workflow's SMS provider.
Can I send SMS to GoHighLevel contacts?
Yes. Connect a GoHighLevel location with OAuth in Texto. Import contacts with usable Australian mobile numbers using Import from CRM, review the audience and send your campaign from Texto. The import does not filter by tags, smart lists or pipelines.
Does Texto work natively with GoHighLevel?
Yes. Texto can send SMS initiated in a GoHighLevel location, including workflow SMS, when configured as its SMS provider. The location connection also supports contact import into Texto and optional activity write-back.
Do replies appear in GoHighLevel?
In Texto's GoHighLevel settings, enable write-back and choose inbound replies. A number that can receive replies is needed. Where conversation-provider configuration is available, activity can appear in Conversations; otherwise it may be recorded as a contact note. Older connections may need reconnecting for the required permissions.
Can delivery updates and opt-outs sync to GoHighLevel?
Texto has settings to write outbound sends, inbound replies, delivery updates and opt-outs against matching GoHighLevel contacts. Turn on write-back and select the activity types you need. Older OAuth connections may need to reconnect.
How much is GoHighLevel SMS with Texto?
Texto charges 3c AUD per Australian SMS part with no monthly platform fee or contract for standard sending. New accounts get five free credits. An optional Dedicated Number costs $15 per month.
Do I need Zapier or a CSV export?
No. Texto connects to your GoHighLevel location via OAuth and imports eligible contacts directly for sending in Texto.
Can an agency connect multiple GoHighLevel locations?
Each OAuth connection selects a GoHighLevel location. Do not assume connecting one location automatically makes every agency location available in Texto.
Can customers reply to my SMS?
Yes, with a number that can receive replies, such as Texto's optional Dedicated Number. Inbound reply write-back can be enabled in GoHighLevel settings within Texto.
Can I use a branded Sender ID?
Texto supports branded Sender IDs for outbound SMS. For replies, use a number that can receive messages instead. See the Sender ID guide for registration details.
