Authenticate calls with OAuth2 or API keys as required by the Contacts API. Use the recommended scope for read access to contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments.
Grant your BQE CORE app permission to access the Contacts API resources. Store tokens securely and refresh them as needed.

Trigger: pull a contact record (GET /contacts/:contactId) to sync basic profile data and related records.
Actions: fetch contact data, map fields to BQE CORE, and update the CRM profile.
Method/path: GET /contacts/:contactId (and related resources like tasks and notes)
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, lastUpdated
Trigger: any change to a contact’s tasks (GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId) signals an update to BQE CORE tasks.
Actions: pull task data and status, update corresponding tasks in BQE CORE.
Method/path: GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks and PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
Key fields: contactId, taskId, status, dueDate
Trigger: notes added or updated (GET /contacts/:contactId/notes)
Actions: sync notes to BQE CORE, creating or updating notes linked to the contact.
Method/path: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id
Key fields: contactId, noteId, noteBody, createdAt
Speed: build and deploy integrations without writing code.
Reliability: reuse established API endpoints for consistent data flow.
Scalability: add more endpoints or resources as requirements grow.
This glossary defines the terms used in this guide and explains how the Contacts API and BQE CORE connect through GHL endpoints.
A person in your CRM with core data like name, email, phone, and notes.
A URL path that performs a specific operation in the API, such as retrieving a contact or list of contacts.
The process of verifying who is making a request (OAuth2 or API keys).
A mechanism for the API to push data to your app in real time.
Use webhooks to push updates about contact changes to BQE CORE, reducing polling and lag.
Automatically create and assign tasks in BQE CORE when notes or contact changes occur in Contacts API.
Schedule nightly bulk syncs to reconcile data between systems and generate audit logs.
Set up OAuth2 or API keys, choose scopes for required data, and test the connection.
Create field mappings from Contacts API to BQE CORE to ensure accurate data transfer.
Schedule real-time or periodic sync, plus error handling and retries.
The Contacts API lets you read contact data, their tasks, notes, and appointments, enabling BQE CORE to stay up to date. Use this guide to configure authentication, map fields, and trigger updates automatically.\n\nNo-code setup lets you connect the systems quickly using the App Connector and standard endpoints, with optional webhooks for real-time updates.
We support OAuth2 and API key-based authentication depending on your provider and the API’s requirements. For production use OAuth2 with refresh tokens and secure storage of credentials.\nKeep credentials rotated and scopes limited to only what is needed for the integration.
Basic sync requires pulling core profile data from GET /contacts/:contactId.\nOptional endpoints like GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes enable richer data in BQE CORE.
Yes. You can retrieve tasks and notes in addition to contacts (GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes) and push them to BQE CORE.\nEnsure proper field mappings so tasks and notes align with BQE CORE records.
Implement robust error handling with logging and retries. Use exponential backoff for 5xx and 429 responses, and alert on persistent failures.\nMaintain clear retry rules and retry limits for reliability.
Yes—this is a no-code approach using the App Connector and standard endpoints.\nYou can extend functionality with webhooks if real-time data pushes are required.
Test the connection using the connector’s built-in test tool or by issuing sample API calls.\nVerify that data appears in BQE CORE and monitor logs for any errors.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
