When CompanyCam and Housecall Pro operate independently, field technicians often capture photos of completed jobs in CompanyCam but fail to document critical job details in Housecall Pro. This results in lost job data, as technicians must manually enter photo links and job notes into Housecall Pro after returning to the office. The operations team spends excessive time reconciling discrepancies between the two systems, leading to delays in invoicing and customer follow-ups.

Top Ways to Automate CompanyCam & Housecall Pro

  • Automated Photo Uploads: Instantly sync photos taken in CompanyCam to the relevant job in Housecall Pro, ensuring that your team has immediate access to visual documentation without manual uploads.
  • Real-Time Status Updates: Automatically update job statuses in Housecall Pro based on photo documentation milestones in CompanyCam, keeping your team and clients informed without additional effort.
  • Centralized Reporting: Generate comprehensive reports that combine job details from Housecall Pro with visual documentation from CompanyCam, providing a holistic view of project progress and enhancing accountability.

How to Build the CompanyCam → Housecall Pro Sync

  1. Set up a webhook in CompanyCam to trigger on the 'New Photo' event. This will send a POST request to your designated endpoint whenever a new photo is uploaded.
  2. Configure the webhook to include the following payload data: { 'photo_url': '{{photo.url}}', 'job_id': '{{job.id}}', 'timestamp': '{{photo.timestamp}}' }.
  3. On your server, create an endpoint that listens for the incoming webhook from CompanyCam. This endpoint should extract the photo_url and job_id from the payload.
  4. Use the Housecall Pro REST API to insert the photo link into the corresponding job. Make a POST request to https://api.housecallpro.com/v2/jobs/{{job_id}}/photos with the following JSON body: { 'url': '{{photo_url}}', 'timestamp': '{{timestamp}}' }.
  5. Verify the response from Housecall Pro to ensure the photo was successfully attached to the job.

Developer Warnings & API Gotchas

  • Ensure the job_id from CompanyCam matches the format expected by Housecall Pro; discrepancies in ID formats can lead to failed inserts.
  • Be aware that Housecall Pro may require specific permissions for photo uploads; ensure your API key has the necessary scopes.
  • Monitor the payload size from CompanyCam; if too large, it may exceed the limits set by Housecall Pro, resulting in failed API calls.
