Use an API key or OAuth token to securely access Contacts API endpoints such as contacts, notes, tasks, and appointments.
Provide Byteplant credentials to authorize validation requests; use webhooks for status updates and results.
Key endpoints include: GET /contacts/:contactId, 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, 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
Triggers when a contact is created or updated in Contacts API.
Actions: validate the phone via Byteplant and update the contact’s validation fields.
POST /contacts/ or PUT /contacts/:contactId to start validation
phone, validation_status, last_validated
Triggered when phone fields are added or updated.
Actions: send phone data to Byteplant for validation and update results in Contacts.
PUT /contacts/:contactId
phone, validation_status
Triggered during bulk import or nightly sync.
Actions: queue validation tasks for each imported contact and store results.
POST /contacts/
contacts[].phone, contacts[].validation_status
Automations run without custom code using built-in triggers and actions.
Keep data clean with real-time phone validation during sync.
Improve deliverability and data quality by validating numbers.
Glossary of terms: endpoints, triggers, actions, webhooks, and data enrichment explained.
Verification that a phone number is real, reachable, and assignable to a contact.
A callback that notifies your system when an event occurs in the integration.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to access a resource in an API.
Adding validated data to a contact’s record to improve accuracy and insights.
Set up a trigger on lead capture to validate phone numbers before creating contacts.
Add validation_status and confidence score to contact records after validation.
Queue and validate in batches to maintain performance and accuracy.
Obtain API keys or OAuth tokens and connect GHL to APPNAME.
Choose events that will trigger validation.
Align data fields (phone, status) and run a test sync.
To authenticate, generate an API key or OAuth token from Byteplant and configure it in GHL. Use secure storage and rotate credentials regularly. In the GHL integration, pass the token in request headers for each API call. Handle errors gracefully. Tip: Test with a sandbox environment before going live.
The core endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId and POST /contacts/ for creation, plus PUT /contacts/:contactId to update. Validate via Byteplant and handle responses. Use webhooks for asynchronous results where supported.
Yes. No-code automation is supported via GHL workflows or Zapier app connector. Set up triggers on events like contact creation or update to initiate phone validation, and batch validate as needed.
Store validation results on the contact record (e.g., validation_status, last_validated). Use notes or a dedicated field to reflect status, and implement retry/error handling for failed validations.
Byteplant and GHL support secure data transfer over HTTPS. Ensure compliance with your privacy policy, limit data exposure, and rotate credentials regularly.
Bulk validation can be performed by enqueueing validation tasks during import or nightly sync. Track results and update contact records in batches to maintain performance.
Test the integration in a sandbox, validate a sample set of contacts, review results, map fields correctly, and then move to production with monitoring in place.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
