Authenticate to the Contacts API using OAuth credentials issued to your GHL-connected app. Store tokens securely and refresh them as needed.
Authorize Booqable within GHL using the standard OAuth flow, then map API keys and scopes to enable read/write access to contacts data.
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 (permission: write access to contacts) 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 contact is created or updated in Booqable, sync to GHL in real time.
Actions: create or update the corresponding GHL contact; mirror changes to related tasks, notes, and appointments.
Method path: use POST /contacts/ to create and PUT /contacts/:contactId to update, plus related endpoints for tasks/notes.
Key fields: id, email, first_name, last_name, phone.
Trigger: updates to tasks and notes in either system trigger a sync.
Actions: propagate changes to the opposite system and keep IDs aligned.
Method path: endpoints for tasks and notes (POST, PUT, DELETE) to mirror state.
Key fields: taskId, noteId, status, dueDate.
Trigger: business data updated in Booqable updates related contact fields in GHL.
Actions: enrich GHL contact records with business details (industry, company size, revenue).
Method path: GET /contacts/business/:businessId to pull business data and map to contact fields.
Key fields: businessId, industry, companyName, revenue, website.
Benefit: build powerful integrations with connectors and automation without writing code.
Benefit: centralize contact data across Booqable and GHL for better segmentation.
Benefit: automate recurring workflows like onboarding and follow-ups.
Overview of the main elements and processes used in this integration: endpoints, triggers, actions, data mapping, and error handling.
Definition: A set of rules and calls that let GHL and Booqable exchange data.
Definition: The URLs you call to retrieve or modify data (for example, GET /contacts/:contactId).
Definition: The process of proving identity to access the API (OAuth tokens, API keys).
Definition: Event-driven notifications that trigger automations when data changes.
Description: When a new customer signs up in Booqable, create a contact in GHL and assign an onboarding task.
Description: Sync purchase events to trigger follow-up tasks and notes in GHL.
Description: Merge business data into contact records to improve segmentation.
Obtain OAuth tokens and grant access to both systems.
Select endpoints for contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments, and map fields.
Create workflows and triggers to keep data in sync.
Yes. Authentication is required to securely access the GHL Contacts API from Booqable. Use OAuth tokens issued for your GHL-connected app and store them securely. If a token expires, refresh it using your app credentials. Maintain least-privilege scopes to protect contact data. For production apps, implement robust error handling and retry logic with exponential backoff to handle transient API hiccups and rate limits.
Begin with retrieving basic contact data to establish a baseline sync (GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/). Next, enable read/write access for creating and updating contacts (POST /contacts/, PUT /contacts/:contactId). Add tasks and notes endpoints as your workflow requires (POST/PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks, /notes).
Yes. You can propagate updates from Booqable to GHL by mapping changes to the corresponding GHL contact fields. Ensure IDs stay aligned and implement idempotent updates to prevent duplicates. Use webhooks or polling to trigger updates when data changes.
Rate limits exist for API calls. Plan batched synchronization where possible and implement exponential backoff on 429 responses. Cache frequently used data to reduce repeated requests and monitor usage with alerts.
You can configure many integrations with no-code tools or built-in automations. For complex mappings, you may need light scripting or a workflow tool, but the base connection between GHL and Booqable can be set up without writing code.
Use a resilient retry strategy and clear error messages. Log failures with context (endpoint, payload, user) and implement compensating actions if needed. Consider using idempotent operations to avoid duplicate records.
Webhooks enable real-time updates. If supported, subscribe to events like contact creation or task updates to trigger automations in GHL or Booqable. When webhooks aren’t available, polling with a defined interval is a reliable alternative.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
