GoHighLevel Snapshots Download Guide (Import & Export)

In this article, I'm going to breakdown what I consider to be one of HighLevel's best features: GoHighLevel Snapshots. 

What are Snapshots, how do you create one, how do you import one, and where can you download them? 

You're in luck, not only will we give you all the details in this guide, we've also linked up tons of free GHL snapshots for you here.

Let's go!

What is a GoHighLevel Snapshot? 

Simply put, a Go HighLevel Snapshot is a clone of a GoHighLevel account that can be imported into another account via a unique link. With a snapshot, you can import and duplicate an entire HighLevel account inside of a new account.

What's the point, you ask? Let me explain. 

Imagine you have all the landing pages, funnels, email marketing campaigns, automations etc. set up in one account and you want to duplicate that in another account. Maybe you want to send your setup to a client or build a fresh campaign in a new account based on that setup. With HighLevel snapshots, that's exactly what you can do. 

What Gets Transferred With a GoHighLevel Snapshot? 

The following settings can be imported from a HighLevel account with a snapshot with these default settings: 

1. Custom Fields
2. Custom Values (Specific values do not get imported do to privacy regulations, only the value keys)
3. Triggers (Defaults to draft mode upon import)
4. Trigger Links
