Grant access by generating an API key or OAuth token for the Contacts API and configuring scope as contacts.readonly (and additional write scopes as needed) in BoloForms.
Enter the credentials from GHL into BoloForms or use OAuth to securely exchange tokens, ensuring only permitted actions are allowed.
GET /contacts/:contactId\nGET /contacts/:contactId/tasks\nGET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId\nGET /contacts/:contactId/notes\nGET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id\nGET /contacts/:contactId/appointments\nGET /contacts/\nGET /contacts/business/:businessId\ncontacts.write\nPOST /contacts/\nPUT /contacts/:contactId\nDELETE /contacts/:contactId\nPOST /contacts/:contactId/tasks\nPUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId\nPUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed\nDELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId\nPOST /contacts/:contactId/tags
Trigger on contact create or update in GHL to push changes to BoloForms and keep both systems in sync.
Actions: create or update the corresponding contact in BoloForms, with proper field mappings and conflict handling.
Method: GET /contacts/:contactId (read) used to fetch contact data for syncing.
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, tags.
Trigger on task creation or update for a linked contact to keep task data aligned.
Actions: create or update tasks in BoloForms and propagate status changes back to GHL.
Method path example: PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
Key fields: taskId, contactId, status, dueDate, description.
Triggers when notes or appointments are created or updated, syncing data between GHL and BoloForms.
Actions: sync notes to GHL and schedule or reflect appointments in BoloForms.
Method example: GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments (read) and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id (read).
Key fields: noteId, appointmentId, date, time, details.
Automate data flow between GHL and BoloForms without writing code, reducing manual entry and errors.
Maintain a single source of truth for contact data, ensuring consistent records across platforms.
Speed up onboarding with the Zapier App Connector and ready-to-use templates.
This glossary covers endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, and data mapping used for GHL Contacts API integrations with BoloForms.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that enables apps to talk to each other, request data, and perform actions.
A mechanism to receive real-time notifications when events occur in GHL or BoloForms.
OAuth is an authorization framework that grants secure access without sharing passwords.
A specific URL path exposed by an API to perform a function, e.g., GET /contacts/:contactId.
Automatically enrich contact data by pulling authoritative fields from GHL as contacts are created or updated in BoloForms.
Keep tasks and notes aligned between systems with seamless two-way synchronization.
Auto-create and update calendar appointments in GHL from BoloForms events to reduce scheduling gaps.
Generate and securely configure your API credentials or OAuth tokens in BoloForms to begin.
Map GHL contact fields to BoloForms fields to ensure accurate data synchronization.
Run end-to-end tests, verify data flow, and switch on automation for production.
No-code setup is possible using the Zapier App Connector. You can connect BoloForms to the GHL Contacts API with just a few clicks, mapping fields to ensure data flows smoothly. If you need custom logic or transformations, a developer can extend the integration with optional code steps. Tip: Start with read-only access to validate data flow before enabling write permissions.
The integration supports OAuth-based authentication and API keys, depending on your GHL configuration. For security, OAuth tokens are preferred and can be refreshed automatically. Ensure the token has the necessary scopes (e.g., contacts.readonly or contacts.write) for the endpoints you plan to use.
Endoints include reading contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments, as well as creating or updating records. Use GET for reads, POST to create, PUT to update, and DELETE to remove where supported. Field mappings ensure data consistency across systems.
Yes. If you have write access to GHL, you can propagate changes from BoloForms back to GHL by enabling write endpoints and implementing appropriate field mappings and conflict resolution rules.
Test in a staging or sandbox environment by running sample records through the flow. Validate that created/updated data appears in both systems and monitor logs for errors. Once green, switch to production.
Map fields between GHL and BoloForms carefully: contactId maps to id equivalents, and consider data types, formats, and duplicates. Use sample records to verify consistency.
API rate limits depend on your GHL plan. Check the GHL developer docs for current quotas and design your flows to batch requests or throttle them to stay within limits.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
