Contacts, two way or one way
- Contacts
At a glance. Contacts stay the same on both sides. Below: which field matches which, and what every change does.
Your choice
Two way or one way
Keep both systems identical, or let one feed the other. You decide per record type.
One way
HighLevel feeds Square and Square changes stay in Square.
- HighLevel stays the source of truth
- Square always has the latest customers
- Switch to two way later
Fine tune it:Everyone, customers only or leads onlyEvery 30 minutes up to every 3 days
Record by record
What travels, and what each change does
Pick a record type and the system where a change starts. On the left, which field matches which and when it travels; on the right, what that change does on the other side.

It happens in Square, then in HighLevel
A new contact
Looked for in HighLevel with its own duplicate check, email first, then phone, and updated when found. A phone number that belongs to somebody with another email is left off the new contact, so two people are never merged.
Name, email, phone and address change
The same change is made to the HighLevel contact on the next sync.
Company and country change later
Not carried: Square takes the country only when the customer is created; HighLevel takes these only when the contact is created.
A contact without email or phone
Not written into HighLevel: it needs an email address or a phone number on every contact.
A phone number Square refuses
Nothing to carry.
- Some fields travel once, when the record is created: Square takes the country only when the customer is created; HighLevel takes these only when the contact is created.
- Before anything is created the other system is searched first, so nothing is created twice.

Conflicts
When both sides changed the same record
- For each two way record type you choose whether Square or HighLevel leads. The leading side always runs first in a sync.
- It only matters when the same record changed in both systems between two syncs. Every other change simply travels.
- A record is never moved backwards by a sync: a paid invoice is not reopened, a decided quote is not undecided.
Between two syncs
The phone number of the same customer is changed in both systems
Leading system
+1 415 555 0101+1 415 555 0199Two different values. Run the sync to see which one both systems end up with.
