To access GHL resources from DriverReach, set up an OAuth 2.0 flow or a secure API key. Your app will request a scoped access token (e.g., contacts.readonly) to read contact data and support downstream actions.
DriverReach authenticates to GHL using OAuth 2.0 client credentials. Create a client ID and secret in GHL, securely store credentials, and exchange tokens to authorize API calls from DriverReach.
Endpoints you can leverage 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, PUT /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/, 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: a contact is updated in DriverReach, then pull the latest fields into the corresponding GHL contact record.
Actions: GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch; PUT /contacts/:contactId to update in GHL when needed.
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, name, email, phone, status
Trigger: new or updated DriverReach contacts create or update GHL records.
POST /contacts/
name, email, phone
Trigger: applying or syncing tags in DriverReach updates GHL tags for segmentation.
PUT /contacts/:contactId/tags
contactId, tags
Real‑time bidirectional sync reduces manual data entry and errors.
Automated creation of tasks, notes, and updates from DriverReach into GHL.
A unified data view supports smarter outreach and reporting.
Key elements include endpoints, authentication flows, triggers, actions, and field mappings used to connect DriverReach with the GHL Contacts API.
A defined URL path in the GHL Contacts API that performs a specific action, such as retrieving or updating a contact.
A standard authorization protocol used to grant scoped access to GHL resources without sharing user credentials.
A notification message delivered by an API when a specified event occurs, enabling near‑real‑time updates.
The maximum number of API calls allowed in a rolling time window to protect the service and guide usage.
Capture new DriverReach contacts and automatically create corresponding contacts in GHL, triggering welcome tasks and notes.
Sync DriverReach tasks to GHL and feed updates back to DriverReach to close the loop.
Tag contacts in DriverReach when GHL campaigns run to trigger targeted follow-ups.
In the GHL dashboard, create a new API credential pair for DriverReach and securely save the client ID and secret.
Connect the DriverReach fields to the GHL contact fields you plan to sync and map IDs between systems.
Run test syncs, verify data integrity, and enable automatic updates across both platforms.
Yes. You can view and pull contact data from GHL into DriverReach to inform outreach, and you can push updates from DriverReach back into GHL to keep records in sync. This enables more accurate targeting and faster follow-ups. For many users, no-code automation options (workflows or connectors) handle the majority of syncing needs without custom development.
GHL uses OAuth 2.0 for secure access. You will generate a client ID and secret, request access tokens with the appropriate scope (such as contacts.readonly), and attach the token to API calls. DriverReach will manage token refreshes and securely store credentials. If you prefer API keys, use a key-based flow where supported, keeping keys rotated and protected.
The available endpoints cover reading contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments, plus creating and updating records and tagging. Use GET requests to retrieve data and POST/PUT/DELETE for changes, all within the scoped authorization granted to your app. For specifics, consult the endpoint list in the Endpoint List section and your permission set.
Yes. You can create new contacts in GHL from DriverReach or update existing ones when changes occur in DriverReach. Use POST /contacts/ to create and PUT /contacts/:contactId to update. Ensure you map fields correctly so essential data (name, email, phone) flows accurately and avoids duplicates.
Field mapping aligns DriverReach data to GHL contact fields. Start with core fields (name, email, phone) and extend to custom fields as needed. Validate mappings with test records, handle mismatches gracefully, and set defaults where data may be missing to maintain data quality.
API calls are subject to rate limits. To minimize throttling, batch requests when possible, implement exponential backoff on errors, and paginate large result sets using the provided endpoints. Regularly review quotas and adjust integration frequency to balance latency with stability.
You don’t have to write code for basic syncing thanks to no‑code automation options. For advanced use cases, you can extend the integration with custom workflows or scripts. The API remains accessible for developers who need deeper customization, but many teams achieve full automation through built‑in rules and connectors.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
