To access the Contacts API, obtain credentials with the scope contacts.readonly and authorize your app to read contact data.
eboov authenticates with GHL using OAuth 2.0 to securely access the Contacts API with the correct permissions.
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 GET /contacts 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 when a contact is requested to retrieve the latest details for display or sync.
Actions: fetch the contact’s core fields (id, name, email, phone) and optionally pull related tasks and notes for a complete snapshot.
GET /contacts/:contactId
id, firstName, lastName, email, phone, company
Trigger: when viewing a contact to display its task list.
Actions: retrieve tasks for the contact and map task fields to your app (taskId, title, status, dueDate).
GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
taskId, title, status, dueDate, priority, completed, contactId
Trigger: when notes are requested for a contact to provide context.
Actions: retrieve notes for the contact; map noteId, content, and createdAt.
GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
noteId, content, createdAt, contactId
No-code setup lets you integrate quickly without developers.
Automate data sync and reduce manual data entry across systems.
Secure authentication and scalable architecture for long-term use.
Definitions for endpoints, triggers, actions, and essential fields used in the GHL–eboov connection.
A specific URL path that performs a defined operation when called.
A protocol for authorizing apps to access user data securely, typically used with scopes.
A set of permissions granted to an app to access specific data via the API.
Mapping between API response fields and app data fields.
Automatically sync contact updates from GHL to eboov and notify teams when changes occur.
Link tasks to contact records to build a detailed activity timeline in eboov.
Trigger automations when key fields update, like status or notes.
Register your app in GHL to get client_id, client_secret, and scopes.
Set the scope to include contacts.readonly and ensure redirect URIs are configured.
Make test calls to endpoints, verify field mappings, and adjust as needed.
The API scope determines what data your app can access. For reading contacts, choose the readonly scope (e.g., contacts.readonly). This helps limit exposure while enabling essential operations. Assign this scope during app registration and when obtaining access tokens. You can request broader permissions later if your use case requires write access, but start with readonly to minimize risk and simplify setup.
Authentication is typically handled via OAuth 2.0. Your app will redirect users to the GHL authorization page, obtain an authorization code, and exchange it for access and refresh tokens. Store tokens securely and refresh them as needed. Ensure the scopes match the endpoints you intend to call.
The core endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, and related paths. The exact set depends on what you need in your workflow. Start with read-only access to fetch contact data and expand as required.
Yes. If you enable write permissions and use endpoints like POST /contacts/ or PUT /contacts/:contactId, you can create and update records from eboov. Be mindful of permission scopes and validation rules in GHL.
Security is achieved through OAuth 2.0, token rotation, and least-privilege scopes. Use secure storage for tokens, validate tokens on each call, and monitor access logs to detect unusual activity.
No-code integration is possible using connectors and presets. However, some scenarios may benefit from lightweight scripting or mapping rules. Start with a no-code approach and escalate only if complex transformations are needed.
Field mapping ties API response fields to your app’s data model. Define required fields (e.g., id, name, email) and map optional fields as needed. Test the mappings with sample data to ensure correct data flow.
