FAQs

How do I authenticate with GHL from Coassemble?

To authenticate, register your Coassemble app in GHL and obtain a client ID and secret. Configure the redirect URI in GHL to point back to Coassemble and enable the contacts.readonly scope. During setup, Coassemble will guide you through the OAuth flow to grant the requested permissions. Upon successful authorization, Coassemble receives an access token used to call GHL APIs securely. Keep tokens confidential and rotate them as recommended by security best practices.

The readonly scope allows you to fetch contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments. It does not permit creating, updating, or deleting resources. If you need write capabilities, you must request additional scopes and have them approved by GHL, then adjust your app configuration accordingly. Always implement least-privilege access.

By default this integration is read-only. Writing data from Coassemble to GHL requires elevated permissions and explicit consent from your GHL account. When enabled, implement safeguards, audit trails, and error handling to prevent unintended data changes.

Use a sandbox or staging environment to test endpoints and data mappings. Run sample GET requests to verify responses, confirm field mappings, and monitor logs for errors. Validate end-to-end data flow before moving to production. Use test credentials where available.

GHL imposes rate limits on API calls. Plan efficient queries, cache data when possible, and implement exponential backoff on 429 responses. If you anticipate high volume, contact GHL for guidance or apply batching where supported.

Webhooks notify your app when specific data changes occur in GHL. Configure webhook endpoints in GHL and handle retries on failures. Webhooks help keep Coassemble in sync without polling continuously.

API keys and credentials are created in the GHL developer console. Store them securely (e.g., secret management) and rotate credentials periodically. In the Coassemble integration settings, enter the client ID, secret, and redirect URI as required.
