Access the Contacts API with a secured token from your GHL account. Use the scope contacts.readonly unless you need write permissions.
Authorize ebuero to use the Contacts API by exchanging credentials for an access token with the appropriate scope.
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; 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 viewed or updated in GHL to push changes to ebuero.
Actions include retrieving the contact via GET /contacts/:contactId and creating or updating the corresponding contact in ebuero.
GET /contacts/:contactId
id, email, name, phone, company
Trigger on new lead in ebuero to create a contact in Contacts API.
Actions: POST /contacts/ with mapped fields from the ebuero lead.
POST /contacts/
name, email, phone, source, businessId
Trigger on task completion in ebuero to update the corresponding contact in Contacts API.
Actions: PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed to reflect status and optionally update contact fields.
PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed
contactId, taskId, status

The Contacts API is a RESTful interface that lets you read, create, update, and delete contact data in GHL from external apps like ebuero. It enables syncing contact details, notes, tasks, and related activities with your CRM workflow. To get started, generate an access token with the appropriate scope and use the provided endpoints to fetch and push data. The integration supports typical read-only scenarios by default, with optional write permissions configured by your API credentials and scopes.
No-code connectors (like Zapier) can handle many common workflows without custom code. For advanced mappings or unique business rules, you can also implement custom code in your integration layer. The choice depends on your data complexity and automation goals. If you only need data visibility and simple syncs, no-code is usually sufficient; for deeper automation, consider a light coding approach.
Available endpoints cover contacts, tasks, notes, appointments, and tags, plus create, update, and delete operations. The list includes GET /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/, PUT /contacts/:contactId, and related nested resources for tasks and notes. Use these endpoints to build bi-directional flows between GHL and ebuero, mapping fields as needed.
Authentication is performed with a secure access token tied to your GHL account and the ebuero app. Ensure the token carries the correct scope (e.g., contacts.readonly or broader write scopes if required). Store tokens securely and rotate them per security best practices. If your environment supports OAuth, use the standard authorization code flow to obtain a fresh token as needed.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and endpoint type. Typical usage should stay well within standard quotas for read operations, but heavy write activity may require batching or scheduling. Monitor response headers for quotas and implement retry/backoff when limits are approached. For critical integrations, consider tiered logic to avoid throttling in high-traffic moments.
Common errors include invalid tokens, insufficient scopes, missing required fields, and hard rate-limit hits. Check HTTP status codes (401, 403, 429, 4xx, 5xx) and review error messages for guidance. Implement token refresh logic, validate payload schemas, and log failures for debugging. When integrations fail, use idempotent requests where possible to prevent duplicate data creation.
Yes, you can map and send custom fields from ebuero to the Contacts API. Define field mappings in your integration layer and ensure endpoints accept the custom data types. For complex schemas, consider extending with additional endpoints or custom properties in both systems. Document mappings clearly so future updates don’t break synchronized data.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
