Stop texting and calling bad numbers from your GoHighLevel workflows with the 1Lookup app

Install the 1Lookup app from the GoHighLevel Marketplace, then add a 1Lookup action to a workflow. Each new contact gets checked the moment it is added, and the result tells the workflow what to do next: text the good numbers, tag the risky ones and skip landlines. Phone Validation checks numbers and Email Validation checks addresses.

A phone check at the start of the workflow keeps bad numbers out of your texts and calls.

Most HighLevel workflows act on whatever number a form, an ad or an import hands them. A landline usually cannot receive your text, and a disconnected number wastes the send and the call.

Put one 1Lookup step right after the trigger. It returns the line type, the carrier, risk indicators and a recommendation of approve, review or block. An If/Else step then sends each contact down its own branch: the good numbers carry on, the doubtful ones get a tag, and the rest stop there.

Email works the same way. The Email Validation step returns a deliverability status of safe, risky or unknown, a risk level and a recommendation, so a bad address is caught before your first email goes out.

Example workflow

A 1Lookup step does six jobs inside a HighLevel workflow.

Skip landlines before you text

Phone Validation reports the line type: mobile, landline or VoIP. Send mobiles to your text step and landlines to a call task.

Branch on approve, review or block

Phone and email checks both end in a recommendation. Let approve carry on, send review to a person, and stop block.

Tag contacts by the result

Add a tag after the check so a list, a report or a later workflow can find the contacts that need a second look.

Check email before the first send

Email Validation returns a deliverability status of safe, risky or unknown, plus a risk level, so bad addresses never reach your email step.

Check numbers abroad

Number Type Lookup, MNP Lookup and HLR Lookup cover numbers outside the US. HLR Lookup reads the live status of a mobile number from the mobile network.

Fill the gaps in a contact

Enrichment steps find a work email from a name and company domain, a mobile number from a profile URL or an email, or a phone number from a name and postal address.

View the Marketplace listing

You can add a phone check to a HighLevel workflow in four steps.

1

Start your free 1Lookup trial and copy your API key

Sign up at app.1lookup.io and start the 7-day free trial. Then open API Keys in the dashboard and copy your key. You paste it once into the connection and every workflow reuses it.

2

Install the 1Lookup app from the GoHighLevel Marketplace

Open the 1Lookup listing, install the app on your account and paste your API key when it asks. The app asks for two permissions, one for contacts and one for workflows.

3

Add Phone Validation after the trigger of a workflow

In the workflow builder, add an action, search for 1Lookup and choose Phone Validation. Point it at the contact's phone number.

4

Add an If/Else step that reads the result

Branch on the recommendation, the line type or the risk. Send approve to your text and call steps, tag review, and stop block. Add Email Validation the same way for the email address.

Example Email Validation result for a fictional address showing deliverability safe, risk level low and a recommendation of approve, with three branches: approve starts the welcome emails, review waits for a person, block stops the workflow
Example workflow

1Lookup also has its own apps on Zapier, Make and n8n.

Each one is a native 1Lookup app: search for 1Lookup, paste your API key once, and add a lookup step to any workflow.

Four workflows you can build with the 1Lookup checks in HighLevel.

Keep landlines and blocked numbers out of text campaigns

Check the number when a contact is created. Mobiles marked approve enter the text campaign, landlines go to a call task, and everything else gets a tag for review.

Clean a form submission before the welcome email

Check the address when a form is submitted. Safe addresses start the welcome sequence, risky ones wait for a person, and the rest stop.

Handle leads from outside the US

Run HLR Lookup on a mobile number from abroad to see whether it is live before the first message goes out.

Tag every new contact with one n8n workflow

1Lookup ships a ready-made n8n workflow for HighLevel. A Contact Created workflow in HighLevel sends each new contact to n8n, 1Lookup checks the phone and the email, and the contact gets tags such as 1lookup-approve, 1lookup-review, 1lookup-block, 1lookup-landline, 1lookup-dnc and 1lookup-bad-email.

The ready-made n8n workflow: a Contact Created trigger in HighLevel posts to a webhook, n8n and 1Lookup check the phone and email, and tags such as 1lookup-approve, 1lookup-review, 1lookup-block, 1lookup-landline, 1lookup-dnc and 1lookup-bad-email go back on the contact

Here are answers to common questions about 1Lookup in HighLevel.

Is the 1Lookup app live in the GoHighLevel Marketplace?

Yes. It is listed in the GoHighLevel Marketplace as 1Lookup, and you install it from there.

Do I need a 1Lookup account?

Yes. The app asks for your 1Lookup API key when you install it. Each check uses credits from your 1Lookup plan, the same as an API call.

What does each check cost?

Phone Validation costs 1 credit, Email Validation 1 credit, Phone Spam Check 1 credit, Number Type Lookup 1 credit and IP Lookup 1 credit. MNP Lookup costs 3 credits and HLR Lookup costs 5 credits. The list of actions above shows the price of every action.

Which results can a workflow branch on?

Phone Validation returns the line type, the carrier, risk indicators and a recommendation of approve, review or block. Email Validation returns a deliverability status of safe, risky or unknown, a risk level and a recommendation.

Does it check the Do Not Call list?

The 1Lookup phone check reports do-not-call status for US and Canadian numbers. The ready-made n8n workflow on this page uses it to tag those contacts in HighLevel as 1lookup-dnc. To scrub a whole list before a campaign, use Phone Scrub.

Does it work for numbers outside the US?

Number Type Lookup, MNP Lookup and HLR Lookup cover international numbers. HLR Lookup reads the live status of a mobile number straight from the mobile network.

Can I run the same checks from n8n, Zapier or Make?

Yes. 1Lookup has its own app on each of the three, and the n8n workflow on this page tags HighLevel contacts without any code.

What permissions does the app ask HighLevel for?

The listing shows two: contacts and workflows.
