Access the Contacts API from Archie securely by using the recommended OAuth flow and API keys. Store tokens securely and refresh them before they expire.
Archie uses a secure OAuth-based approach to authorize calls to the GHL Contacts API. Set up a one-time connection and let token renewal happen automatically.
Key endpoints available for Archie-Contacts API integration: – GET /contacts/:contactId — Retrieve a single contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — List tasks for a contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Retrieve a specific task – GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — Retrieve notes for a contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — Retrieve a specific note – GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — Retrieve appointments for a contact – GET /contacts/ — List all contacts – GET /contacts/business/:businessId — List contacts by business – POST /contacts/ — Create a new contact – PUT /contacts/:contactId — Update a contact – DELETE /contacts/:contactId — Delete a contact – POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Create a new task for a contact – PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Update a task – PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — Mark a task as completed – DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Delete a task – POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — Tag a contact Note: There are additional endpoints in the full list that support advanced workflows and bulk operations. Explore the rest of the API to tailor Archie integrations.
Trigger: A new or updated contact in Archie prompts a fetch of the latest details from the Contacts API via GHL to ensure Archie holds current information.
Actions: Call GET /contacts/:contactId to pull the latest data, then map fields such as firstName, lastName, email, and phone into Archie records.
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, firstName, lastName, email, phone
Trigger: A new or updated task for a contact in Archie prompts pulling the task list from GHL.
Actions: Use GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to retrieve all tasks, then push updates back to Archie as needed.
GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
contactId, taskId, status
Trigger: A task change in Archie triggers retrieval of the specific task from GHL.
Actions: Call GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId and map task details into Archie for reference.
GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
contactId, taskId, status, dueDate
Automate data flow without writing code—keep contacts, tasks, and notes in sync between Archie and GHL in real time.
Reduce manual data entry and errors by pushing updates from Archie to GHL automatically and vice versa.
Leverage built-in mappings and triggers to accelerate onboarding and scale workflows as you grow.
Understand the core components: API endpoints, triggers, actions, and key fields, all essential for building reliable Archie-GHL integrations.
The URL path and HTTP method used to perform a specific operation in an API, such as GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch a contact.
A condition or event in Archie that starts an automation, such as creating a task when a contact is updated in GHL.
An operation executed in response to a trigger, for example, updating a contact in Archie after receiving data from GHL.
A field used to identify and map data between Archie and GHL, such as contactId or email.
Automatically create or update a contact in Archie when a new contact is added in GHL, reducing manual setup time.
Trigger task-based actions in Archie when tasks are created or updated in GHL, keeping teams aligned.
Sync notes and activity history to Archie so teams have complete context at a glance.
Register the Archie app in GHL, obtain client credentials, and authorize access to the Contacts API.
Define field mappings for contact, task, and note data to ensure accurate data flow.
Run test calls, verify data integrity, and enable automated syncing in production.
Archie connects to the GHL API using a secure OAuth flow and API keys. This setup ensures that your credentials are protected and that tokens can be refreshed automatically as they near expiration. You’ll authenticate once per deployment, then Archie will handle subsequent requests with refreshed tokens. In practice, this means you don’t need to manage long-lived tokens manually. The connection is designed to be resilient, with retry logic and clear error messages if credentials become invalid or revoked.
Essential endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch a contact, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to retrieve tasks, and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes for notes. For workflow completeness, you may also use POST /contacts/ to create, PUT /contacts/:contactId to update, and DELETE /contacts/:contactId to remove records as part of lifecycle management. Having a core set of endpoints documented helps you build reliable automations, while the full 54-endpoint list provides advanced options for bulk operations and extended data access.
No-code setup is supported through the GHL connector in Archie. You can configure connections, mappings, and triggers via the UI without writing code. For complex scenarios, you can extend with custom rules, but the baseline integration is designed to work out of the box. If you ever need custom logic beyond the built‑in mappings, you can use webhooks and automated workflows to tailor data flows without touching code in your application layer.
To test your connection, run a dry run or test call from Archie’s integration panel. Verify that data from GHL returns and maps correctly to Archie fields. Check for token validity, response status codes, and data consistency across contacts, tasks, and notes. Once testing passes, you can deploy to production with confidence.
Yes. Archie supports syncing notes and appointments in addition to contacts and tasks. You can enable note retrieval via GET /contacts/:contactId/notes and appointment data via GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments. This ensures a fuller, contextual view of each contact within Archie.
If data drifts between Archie and GHL, you can re-sync on-demand or rely on triggers to push updates. Implementing a two-way sync strategy helps minimize drift. Regular reconciliation tasks and webhook-based updates keep both systems aligned.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and API usage. Plan for retries and backoff in case of throttling. Monitor quota usage in the API dashboard and design your automations to batch or stagger requests where possible to avoid hitting limits.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
