How to Use the GoHighLevel Find Company Workflow Action

In this guide, you will learn how to configure the Find Company workflow action inside GoHighLevel so you can accurately locate company records and power advanced automation. If you previously managed CRM automations in ClickUp or other tools, this tutorial will help you map that logic into GoHighLevel with clear, step‑by‑step instructions.

The Find Company action searches your company object records based on conditions you define. When set up correctly, it lets your workflows dynamically attach contacts, opportunities, or other actions to the right company without manual data entry.

What the GoHighLevel Find Company Action Does

The Find Company workflow action in GoHighLevel is designed to look up an existing company record that matches criteria you specify. Once a match is found, the workflow can use that company as a reference for later actions.

Typical use cases include:

  • Matching an incoming lead to an existing company by domain or company name.
  • Updating custom fields on a company record when new information is received.
  • Creating opportunities linked to the correct company record.
  • Preventing duplicate company entries in your CRM.

This action is especially useful when you work with B2B data and need your automations in GoHighLevel to distinguish between contact-level and company-level information.

Accessing the Find Company Action in GoHighLevel Workflows

To start, you need to open the workflow where you want to add the Find Company action.

  1. Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
  2. Navigate to Automation > Workflows.
  3. Open an existing workflow or click to create a new one.
  4. Inside the workflow builder, click the + icon to add a new action.
  5. Search for or select Find Company from the action list.

After selecting the Find Company action, you will see configuration options that define how GoHighLevel should search your company records.

Configuring GoHighLevel Find Company Conditions

The heart of this action is the set of conditions that tell GoHighLevel which company you are trying to find. The workflow will evaluate these conditions against your company object records.

Primary Match Field Options in GoHighLevel

When setting up the Find Company action, you can choose fields on the company object and compare them to values from the workflow or static text. Common choices include:

  • Company name – Match the workflow record’s company name to the company object’s name.
  • Domain or website – Match on website/URL or domain for more precise B2B matching.
  • Custom fields – Use any custom fields you have added to company objects.

For each condition, you can typically set:

  • The company object field to search.
  • The operator (for example, equals, contains, starts with).
  • The value source (such as contact fields, opportunity fields, or static values).

The more specific your conditions are, the more accurately GoHighLevel will locate the correct company record.

Adding Multiple Conditions in GoHighLevel

You can add several conditions to refine your search logic. For example, you could require both of the following:

  • Company domain equals the contact’s email domain.
  • Company status is active.

Depending on how the action is implemented in your account, these conditions may work together using logical AND or OR behavior. Use a minimal number of conditions that uniquely identify a company without being so strict that no record is found.

Handling Find Results in GoHighLevel Workflows

Once the Find Company action runs, GoHighLevel will either locate a matching company or fail to find one. Your workflow behavior should account for both scenarios so that no records are left in an inconsistent state.

When a Company Is Found in GoHighLevel

If GoHighLevel finds a company that satisfies your conditions, the workflow will reference that company object for subsequent actions. Typical next steps include:

  • Updating company fields with new data.
  • Attaching a contact or opportunity to the found company.
  • Creating tasks or notes associated with the company.
  • Triggering notifications to your team with company details.

Downstream actions can usually reference the company using dynamic fields provided by the workflow engine.

When No Company Is Found in GoHighLevel

If no existing company matches the search criteria, you should decide what the workflow should do next. Common strategies include:

  • Creating a new company record with available data.
  • Creating a task for a human team member to review the record.
  • Routing the workflow down a different branch for unmatched records.

Designing both the “found” and “not found” paths ensures that your automations stay reliable, even when your data is incomplete or inconsistent.

Best Practices for Using GoHighLevel Find Company

To get predictable results from the Find Company action in GoHighLevel, follow these best practices.

Standardize Company Data in GoHighLevel

Standardized data improves match accuracy. Consider:

  • Using consistent formats for company names (avoid extra suffixes when not needed).
  • Normalizing domains (for example, storing only the root domain instead of full URLs).
  • Keeping key custom fields up to date and required when appropriate.

The cleaner your data, the more reliably the Find Company action will work.

Test Workflows Thoroughly in GoHighLevel

Before going live, test your workflow on sample records:

  1. Run the workflow with contacts that should clearly match existing companies.
  2. Test with borderline cases, such as similar company names or shared domains.
  3. Check what happens when no company should be found.
  4. Verify that subsequent workflow actions reference the intended company object.

Monitoring these tests helps you fine-tune your conditions and prevent unwanted duplicates.
