Authenticate requests with your GHL API key and the Contacts API scope (contacts.readonly). Store credentials securely and rotate regularly.
AITable-ai connects to GHL using a stored access token tied to your account. Configure your API key or OAuth credentials in the AITable-ai connector settings and test the connection.
GET /contacts/:contactId — Retrieve a single contact by ID GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — List tasks for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Get a specific task GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — Fetch notes for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — Get a specific note GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — List appointments for a contact GET /contacts/ — List all contacts GET /contacts/business/:businessId — Get contacts by business contacts.write — permission to modify contacts POST /contacts/ — Create a new contact PUT /contacts/:contactId — Update a contact DELETE /contacts/:contactId — Delete a contact POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Create a task for a contact PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Update a task PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — Mark a task complete DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Delete a task POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — Tag a contact
Trigger: when a contact is accessed or updated in GHL, pull latest data into your sheet
Actions: fetch contact data and update a corresponding row in your sheet; optionally append notes
GET /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone
Trigger: new or updated contact prompts related task creation
Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to create a task and map fields
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Fields: contactId, taskId, title, dueDate, status
Trigger: notes added/edited in GHL update the notes data in your table
Actions: PUT /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id to update, or POST to add, then sync fields
PUT /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id
Fields: contactId, id, notes, lastUpdated
Automate data flows without writing code, using simple triggers and actions.
Keep data synchronized across GHL and spreadsheets in real time.
Consolidate notes, tasks, and contact details in a central, searchable view.
Core concepts include endpoints, HTTP methods, triggers, actions, and field mappings used to move data between GHL and AITable-ai.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules and endpoints that allow software to talk to a service.
Authentication and authorization methods used to securely access APIs (API keys, OAuth tokens).
A URL path in an API that returns a specific resource or performs an action.
A mechanism for real-time notifications from one app to another when data changes.
Capture form submissions via webhook and create/update contact records in GHL via the API, then reflect in your AITable-ai sheet.
When tasks update in GHL, push status changes to a live dashboard in your sheet.
Aggregate notes from contacts into a single notes board for quick reference.
Create or locate your GHL API key and grant only the needed scopes.
In AITable-ai, select the Contacts API, paste your base URL, and set the appropriate scopes.
Map GHL contact fields to your sheet columns, run a test request, and verify data flows.
The integration authenticates using your GHL API key with the required scopes (e.g., contacts.readonly). Keep keys secure and rotate them regularly. For added security, use OAuth where supported and limit permissions to what is strictly needed. If you’re using a shared connector, store credentials in a secure vault or encrypted field and never expose them in logs or UI.
The connector exposes a broad set of endpoints from the Contacts API, including retrieving contacts, their tasks, notes, and appointments, as well as creating and updating contacts and related resources. Not every endpoint is required for every page, but you can access GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE actions as needed to build your workflow.
No traditional coding is required. The integration is designed for no-code/low-code usage via AITable-ai’s connector settings. You configure base URLs, map fields, and set triggers and actions using point-and-click interfaces. Advanced users can extend workflows by chaining actions or adding extra steps, but it is not required for standard use.
Field mapping is done in the AITable-ai connector. You select the GHL contact fields you want to pull (e.g., name, email, phone) and map them to corresponding columns in your sheet. You can also map related data like tasks and notes to separate tabs or sections within your workbook.
API rate limits depend on your GHL account and plan. When building automations, design lightweight queries and consider batching where possible. If you hit limits, stagger requests or cache results and use pagination for large datasets.
To test the connection, use the AITable-ai connector’s built-in test feature to run a sample GET on a contact, or POST to create a test item. Check for successful responses and verify the returned data aligns with your sheet structure. Review error messages to adjust mappings or permissions.
The API base URL and endpoints are provided in your GHL developer documentation and within the connector setup screen in AITable-ai. You typically use the base URL for the Contacts API, then append endpoints like /contacts/:contactId to access resources.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
