To begin, obtain your GHL API credentials and grant Bouncie permission to access contact data. Use OAuth where supported or a secure API key in your GHL developer console, then paste the credentials into the connection setup.
In the Bouncie app, generate an access token and connect to your GHL account. This establishes a secure, scoped connection for the endpoints listed below.
GET /contacts/:contactId — fetch a single contact; 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; scopes: contacts.write; 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: a request for a contact in Bouncie pulls the latest data from GHL using GET /contacts/:contactId.
Actions: update GHL contact fields such as name, email, or phone, and optionally create related tasks.
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, name, email, phone
Trigger: bulk export from Bouncie runs and posts to POST /contacts/ to create or update multiple records.
Actions: create or update multiple GHL contacts, attach notes, and assign to businesses as needed.
POST /contacts/
name, email, phone, businessId, notes
Trigger: new or updated tasks in Bouncie trigger updates in GHL.
Actions: create or update tasks via POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks and fetch notes with GET /contacts/:contactId/notes.
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
contactId, taskId, taskName, dueDate, status
No code required — connect and automate without writing a single line of code.
Automate data syncing to eliminate manual entry and reduce errors.
Scale your workflows as your contact data grows without complexity.
Key elements include endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, and data mapping. Understanding these ensures reliable automation.
GHL API provides programmatic access to core resources like contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments for automation.
APPNAME refers to the Bouncie app connector used to bridge GHL with your data. It defines scopes and permissions for the integration.
API endpoints are the URLs and HTTP methods used to read and modify data.
Key data fields like contactId, name, email, phone, and businessId that map between Bouncie and GHL.
Capture new Bouncie leads and enrich GHL contact records with additional fields for better segmentation.
Automatically generate tasks in GHL based on Bouncie events, ensuring timely follow ups.
Sync Bouncie appointments into GHL and trigger calendar reminders for teams and customers.
Get API credentials for GHL and Bouncie and authorize the connection.
Select the endpoints you need (contacts, tasks, notes) and map fields.
Run tests to verify data flow and deploy to production.
The GHL Contacts API lets you read and modify contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments for automation. When paired with Bouncie, you can automatically push new or updated contact details into GHL and pull updates back into Bouncie to keep both systems synchronized. The API uses standard HTTP methods and requires authentication, typically via OAuth or API keys, to protect your data.
For syncing contacts and tasks, important endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId to read a single contact and POST /contacts/ to create or update contacts. Use GET /contacts/ to fetch lists, and POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to manage tasks. Notes are surfaced with GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, and appointments with GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments. Map fields carefully to ensure data parity between Bouncie and GHL.
No coding is required to set up this integration if you use the app connector and UI tooling to define triggers and actions. You can configure field mappings, endpoints, and workflow logic without writing code. For more advanced scenarios, you can extend with custom fields or additional steps, but the core setup remains no-code.
Notes and appointments can be surfaced via the relevant read endpoints (notes and appointments). Writing notes or creating new appointments depends on the available endpoints; the listed endpoints primarily support reading notes and appointments and creating tasks. You can design your flow to sync readable data and trigger actions when notes or appointments are updated.
Security is addressed through authenticated API access (OAuth or API keys) over HTTPS, scoped permissions, and token rotation. Limit the connection to only the required namespaces and regularly audit credentials. Use strong secrets management and monitor access patterns for unusual activity.
If you encounter authorization issues, verify that your API credentials or tokens are valid and have the correct scopes. Ensure the Bouncie app connection is established and that the GHL account permissions match the endpoints you intend to use. Check logs for 401/403 errors and refresh tokens if needed.
GHL API rate limits depend on your plan. Plan for bursts by implementing exponential backoff and batching requests where possible. The app connector UI will surface errors related to rate limits, and you should design your workflows to accommodate retries and staggered executions.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
