The Contacts API uses OAuth 2.0 tokens with a scope of contacts.readonly. Use your GHL app credentials to request a token and include it in API calls as a Bearer token.
Rankr securely exchanges tokens with GHL to authorize data access. Store tokens securely and rotate credentials per security policy.
Endpoints include: GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id, GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments, GET /contacts/, GET /contacts/business/:businessId, POST /contacts/, PUT /contacts/:contactId, DELETE /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed, DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tags
Trigger: contact update in Rankr should push to GHL so contact records stay current.
Actions: fetch contact details via GET /contacts/:contactId and upsert in GHL as a contact, then optionally update tasks or notes.
Method/path example: GET /contacts/:contactId from the API and PUT /contacts/:contactId in GHL for upsert.
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, tags, lastUpdated
Trigger: new or updated tasks in Rankr create or update corresponding tasks in GHL.
Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to create tasks; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId to update; mark completed with appropriate endpoint.
Example: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
Key fields: contactId, taskId, title, status, dueDate
Trigger: adding notes or tags in Rankr triggers updates in GHL notes and tag associations.
Actions: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes; POST /contacts/:contactId/notes to add notes; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags to apply tags.
Example endpoints: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, POST /contacts/:contactId/notes, POST /contacts/:contactId/tags
Key fields: contactId, noteId, content, tagIds
No-code integration enables rapid deployment without custom development, reducing time to value.
Automate data flows between Rankr and GHL to keep contact data consistent across platforms.
Scale automation as your agency grows while maintaining security and governance.
This section covers endpoints, triggers, actions, and authentication workflows that power the integration.
A specific URL path used to access a resource in the GHL Contacts API.
The process of proving identity and permissions to access API resources using tokens.
A callback signaling an event in real-time to your app from the API provider.
The full route including resource type and identifiers used in API calls.
Automatically enrich Rankr contact records by pulling external data via API endpoints and updating GHL profiles.
Create a guided onboarding workflow in GHL tied to Rankr tasks for new leads, reducing manual steps.
Capture client notes in GHL from Rankr events to build a complete history in a single view.
Obtain OAuth tokens for both systems and grant permissions to access contact data with the specified scopes.
Choose the required endpoints (e.g., GET /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks) and define triggers and actions in Zapier or your integration platform.
Run tests with sample data, verify logs, and deploy the workflow across your agency with monitoring in place.
No coding is required for basic connections. The Rankr-GHL connector uses configurable triggers and actions that you can set up in a few minutes. For advanced workflows, you can add custom filters or webhooks as needed. This makes onboarding faster for teams without developers.
With a readonly scope, you can read contact fields, notes, tasks, and basic metadata. Write operations require elevated scopes and proper authentication. Always follow your data governance policies.
Supported endpoints include getting contacts, tasks, notes, and tags. You can also create and update contacts and tasks, and manage notes and tags as part of typical workflows.
Use a sandbox or test environment to simulate calls. Validate responses, check error codes, and confirm that triggers fire as expected before activating the live integration.
Most plans have rate limits. If you exceed them, you’ll receive a 429 error. Implement retries with backoff in your automation to stay within limits.
Yes, you can write data back to GHL when using appropriate write endpoints and authorized scopes. Ensure updates are idempotent to avoid duplicate records.
API credentials are found in the developer console for your GHL app and Rankr account. Rotate credentials regularly and store them securely, using secret management features in your platform.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
