Use the provided OAuth token or API key with the scope ‘contacts.readonly’ to retrieve contact data. Ensure your app has access to the listed endpoints.
EventCreate authenticates to GHL using OAuth 2.0 and API keys, depending on the integration mode. Store credentials securely and refresh tokens as needed.

A quick glossary of terms: contactId, tasks, notes, endpoints, triggers, actions, and methods used in the GHL Contacts API integration with EventCreate.
A unique identifier for a contact record in GHL.
A to-do item associated with a contact, used in tasks.
Notes are free-form text attached to a contact for context.
An API route used to perform an action on GHL data.
Pull contact info from GHL when a new event is created to auto-fill attendee records in EventCreate.
Sync the latest notes from a contact into the event timeline for context.
Create follow-up tasks in EventCreate when a contact’s task is updated in GHL.
Set up OAuth 2.0 flow or API key provisioning for both sides.
Choose endpoints from the list and map fields between GHL and EventCreate.
Create automations that respond to triggers and perform actions in EventCreate.
The Contacts API scope is designed to control what you can retrieve; use ‘contacts.readonly’ to pull contact data. If you need to create or update records, request broader scopes such as ‘contacts’. Always validate permissions before connecting. In test mode you can verify endpoints safely without impacting live data.
Yes. You can update contacts via PUT /contacts/:contactId and create or update tasks via POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks. You can also modify notes and tags using the related endpoints. Ensure your app has write permissions for the actions you perform.
Essential endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes. These allow reading, creating, and updating core CRM objects in sync with EventCreate.
No coding is required for basic automation; most tasks can be configured with triggers and actions in the integration platform. For advanced data transformations, simple scripting or field mappings can be added.
Test your connection in a sandbox or development workspace using sample contacts and tasks. Review request and response logs, verify field mappings, and run end-to-end scenarios from event creation to CRM updates.
Rate limits apply per API plan. If you hit limits, stagger requests, implement retries, and consider upgrading your plan. Monitor quota in your developer console and adjust triggers accordingly.
Consult the official developer docs for the Contacts API and the EventCreate app guide. Look for authentication, endpoints, field mappings, and example workflows to deepen your integration.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
