Begin by creating API credentials in the GHL developer console and applying the scope required for contacts access (contacts.readonly). This establishes a secure handshake between Arthur Online and the Contacts API.
During setup, Arthur Online will request permission to access your Contacts API data. Approve the authorization to enable data syncing for contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments.
1) GET /contacts/:contactId 2) GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks 3) GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId 4) GET /contacts/:contactId/notes 5) GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id 6) GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments 7) GET /contacts/ 8) GET /contacts/business/:businessId 9) contacts.write 10) POST /contacts/ 11) PUT /contacts/:contactId 12) DELETE /contacts/:contactId 13) POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks 14) PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId 15) PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed 16) DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId 17) POST /contacts/:contactId/tags
Trigger when a new contact is added in Arthur Online to pull core fields into the Contacts API for central CRM visibility.
Actions: create or update a contact, sync basic fields (name, email, phone, businessId), and attach associated notes or tasks as needed.
HTTP method example: GET /contacts/:contactId to retrieve or sync contact data; POST /contacts/ to create new records.
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, businessId, createdAt, updatedAt
Trigger when a task is created or updated in Arthur Online to mirror task state in the Contacts API.
Actions: create, update, or delete tasks; reflect status, due date, and progress in the CRM; link tasks to the relevant contact.
HTTP method examples: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed
Key fields: contactId, taskId, status, dueDate, completed
Trigger on onboarding to establish a complete data baseline across all objects.
Actions: bulk fetch and upsert for contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments; ensure consistent IDs and timestamps across systems.
Examples include POST /contacts/ to add new contacts, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks for task lists, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes for notes, and GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments for calendar items.
Key fields: contactId, taskId, notesId, appointmentId, timestamps
Automate data flow without writing code, using native triggers and actions.
Speed onboarding with guided setup and prebuilt endpoint templates.
Achieve a unified view of contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments in one place.
A quick glossary of the core elements and processes used in the GHL Contacts API integration with Arthur Online.
A person in your CRM with associated fields and relationships.
An action item linked to a contact that can have status, due date, and completion data.
A short memo or attachment linked to a contact for context and history.
A scheduled meeting or call associated with a contact and calendar events.
Automatically generate a task template for onboarding or follow-up when a new Arthur Online contact is added, linking task data to the contact record.
Push meeting notes from Arthur Online into a consolidated notes section in the Contacts API for quick reference.
Sync Arthur Online appointments to the CRM calendar, creating linked records for easy scheduling and follow-ups.
Create API keys or OAuth credentials in GHL and note the client_id, client_secret, and required scope (contacts.readonly).
Enter the redirect URI in your app settings and authorize Arthur Online to access Contacts data.
Use test endpoints to verify data flow for a sample contact, task, and notes before enabling production sync.
No-code and low-code options exist to connect Arthur Online to the Contacts API. By using webhooks, prebuilt templates, and visual workflow builders, you can automate data flow without writing custom code. If you do prefer coding, you can still leverage the endpoints to tailor exact behavior. Start with read-only access and expand as needed.
The minimal scope is contacts.readonly for viewing contacts. As you grow, you may add broader permissions such as contacts.write to create or update records, but ensure you follow your security and compliance policies when elevating scopes.
Essential starter endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch a contact, POST /contacts/ to create, PUT /contacts/:contactId to update, and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to pull related tasks. For a richer experience, integrate notes and appointments endpoints as well.
Implement conflict resolution with versioning timestamps and upsert logic. Use createdAt/updatedAt fields to determine the latest data and choose a single source of truth. Consider a manual reconciliation step for critical records.
Yes. You can map and limit fields to sync, selecting only name, email, phone, and businessId initially. Later you can extend to notes, tasks, and appointments as your workflow evolves.
Sync frequency can be near-real-time with webhooks or scheduled intervals depending on your setup. Start with a 15–60 minute cadence and adjust as your data volume and reliability requirements dictate.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
