Authorize Rankr to access your GHL Contacts API by using your GHL API credentials and OAuth where supported. Store credentials securely and rotate keys regularly.
Rankr uses standard OAuth2 or API tokens to securely connect to GHL. Keep secrets protected and grant only necessary scopes.
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
Trigger: New contact created in Rankr.
Action: Create contact in Contacts API (POST /contacts/), map fields from Rankr (email, firstName, lastName, phone).
POST /contacts/
email, firstName, lastName, phone
Trigger: Contact in Rankr is updated.
Action: Update contact in Contacts API (PUT /contacts/:contactId), map fields as needed.
PUT /contacts/:contactId
contactId, email, status, tags
Trigger: Rankr assigns a task or tag to a contact.
Action: Create task in Contacts API (POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks) or update tags (POST /contacts/:contactId/tags).
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
contactId, taskTitle, dueDate

Run end-to-end tests, review logs, fix mappings if needed, and activate automation.
The GHL Contacts API provides programmatic access to contact data, tasks, notes, appointments, and more, enabling Rankr to read and write data as needed. This API is designed to support common CRM workflows without requiring custom code. By using the API, you can automate creation, updates, and enrichment of contact records across systems. To maximize reliability, follow best practices for authentication, rate limiting, and logging so you can audit data flow and quickly detect issues.
No traditional coding is required to set up the Rankr to GHL connection when using a no-code integration approach. The platforms provide triggers, actions, and field mappings that you can configure in a UI. If you need advanced logic, you can add custom steps or conditional flows, but the core connection can be established without writing code.
Core endpoints typically include POST /contacts/ to create, PUT /contacts/:contactId to update, GET /contacts/:contactId for retrieval, and POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to manage tasks. Depending on your use case, you may also leverage endpoints for notes, tags, and endpoints related to business or bulk retrieval. Prioritize endpoints involved in creating and updating contacts, then extend with tasks and notes as needed.
Security is maintained through OAuth2 or API keys, scoped access, and secure credential storage. Ensure credentials are kept in a secret manager and rotate keys periodically. Always use HTTPS endpoints and monitor access logs for unusual activity.
Common issues include authentication failures, mis-mapped fields, and endpoint rate limits. Start by validating credentials and scopes, then review field mappings to ensure data types and names align. Enable verbose logging during testing to pinpoint where requests fail and adjust mappings or payloads accordingly.
Most integration activity can be monitored via the connected apps dashboards and API logs. You can review recent requests, responses, errors, and success rates to identify bottlenecks. Set up alerts for failures and establish a retry policy to maintain data consistency.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
