Authorize Datadog to call the GHL Contacts API using an OAuth flow that yields a token with scope contacts.readonly, then store and rotate credentials securely.
Set up a Datadog application integration and generate an API key or token to authorize data pulls from the Contacts API.
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 on contact create or update in GHL to push changes into Datadog.
Update Datadog dashboards, monitors and logs with contact data.
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, name, email, phone, lastUpdated
Trigger on new or updated tasks for a contact.
Reflect task status in Datadog dashboards and alerts.
GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
taskId, title, status, dueDate
Trigger on notes added or updated for a contact.
Log notes events in Datadog as events or traces.
GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
noteId, content, createdAt
Stream contact data into Datadog without writing code.
Build intuitive dashboards to monitor contact trends visually.
Set up automated alerts for key contact events.
Key elements include endpoints, authentication, triggers, and data fields; processes cover setup, testing, and ongoing monitoring.
A specific path you call on the GHL Contacts API to access or modify data.
Methods to verify identity between Datadog and GHL, such as API keys or OAuth tokens.
A mechanism for GHL to notify Datadog of events in real time.
An event or condition that starts an automation or workflow.
Create a live Datadog dashboard showing contact health, last activity and engagement trends.
Visualize task completion rates by segment to identify bottlenecks and optimize workflows.
Monitor sentiment and note activity to detect engagement shifts and respond quickly.
In Datadog, register the GHL connection and obtain API keys or OAuth tokens.
Grant the required scope contacts.readonly and connect to the Contacts API endpoints.
Run sample calls to endpoints such as GET /contacts and verify data appears in Datadog dashboards.
Datadog can surface contact data from the Contacts API in dashboards, monitors, and alerts. You can pull fields such as contactId, name, email, phone, and notes for real time visibility. This enables proactive engagement and faster responses. You can model data to fit your dashboards and alerts without writing code.
No coding is required to begin. Use the Datadog integration to connect with GHL and map data fields. Leverage prebuilt widgets and alerts to visualize the data quickly. You can customize dashboards with drag and drop components.
Supported endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id, and more. You can create or update tasks via POST and PUT calls as part of your automation.
Security is achieved through token based authentication and least privilege scopes. Rotate tokens regularly and store credentials securely. Use HTTPS for all API calls and monitor access.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
