The GHL Contacts API is a RESTful interface that lets you read, create, update, and delete contact records, notes, tasks, and appointments in your GHL account. It enables programmatic access to your CRM data for automation and integration with other tools. It requires proper authentication (OAuth or API keys) and supports multiple endpoints to cover core CRM objects like contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments.
To authorize the integration, start in GHL to create an OAuth app or generate an API key, then provide Bland AI with the credentials and grant the requested scopes such as contacts.readonly. If scopes or tokens change, re-authorization may be required to maintain access.
The endpoints listed cover contacts and related resources used by Bland AI for syncing. Not every endpoint is needed for every page, but having access to read contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments is common for most workflows. Refer to the Endpoint List section for a complete catalog and examples.
Yes. Field mapping lets you align core contact fields (email, name, phone) and related data between Bland AI and GHL. Use Bland AI’s mapping UI to configure and test mappings before going live.
Scopes determine what the integration can access. For most read needs, use contacts.readonly; for creating or updating data, you may require broader scopes such as contacts.write where supported by the API. Always grant the minimal permissions necessary to reduce risk.
Start with a test or sandbox flow to validate data transfers. Check logs in Bland AI and GHL, verify field mappings, and monitor for errors or mismatches. Once testing passes, deploy to your live environment and continue monitoring.
Error details appear in both Bland AI and GHL logs and dashboards. Enable webhooks where supported, review API quotas, and consult the integration docs or support if issues persist. Re-run the connection and inspect recent activity to isolate root causes.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
