Authenticate requests to the Contacts API using your GHL credentials and access token. Use secure storage and rotate credentials regularly.
Cheddar Up uses its own API key to authorize calls. Generate a private API key in Cheddar Up developer settings and attach it to requests.

Run tests verify data flow and then deploy to production
Not all users need to code. The integration can be built with no code using automation platforms like Zapier. If you want custom logic you may need developer help or a tailored integration to connect endpoints.
Start with the endpoints that match your workflow. For a basic sync you may only need read and write actions on contacts and tasks. For more complex flows include notes and tags. Review the endpoint list and plan your data mapping before you begin.
Authentication involves using the GHL access token or API keys to authorize requests. Each call should include proper credentials and use HTTPS. Rotate keys regularly and store them securely to protect data.
Yes. You can map fields between Cheddar Up and GHL by configuring a mapping table within your integration tool. Typical mappings include email first name last name and phone. Use a unique identifier such as email to avoid duplicates.
Errors are returned with HTTP status codes and descriptive messages. Implement retry logic with exponential backoff and log failures for troubleshooting. Consult the endpoint documentation for specific error codes and remediation steps.
Yes there are rate limits on the GHL endpoints. Plan requests, batch calls when possible, and implement queueing to stay within limits. If you hit a limit, back off and retry after a short interval.
API keys for Cheddar Up are found in the Cheddar Up developer settings. GHL credentials are managed in your GHL account or developer portal. Keep keys private and never expose them in client-side code.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
