The GHL Contacts API is a set of endpoints and authentication methods that let you read and manage contact data from connected platforms, including Facebook Pages. It enables you to fetch contact records, retrieve tasks, notes, and appointments, and to tag or update contacts as part of your automation workflows. Using Rankr to access these endpoints lets you build powerful no-code or low-code automations to keep page leads organized, segment audiences, and trigger follow-ups based on Page activity.
Yes, a developer account or a registered app is required to obtain API credentials. You typically generate a client ID and secret, configure redirect URIs, and request the contacts.readonly scope. If you are using no-code tools, you can still set up the integration by using Rankr’s Connector and provide your credentials securely.
End points you may use include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/, POST /contacts/ to create, and POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to create tasks. For Facebook Pages, focus on read endpoints to fetch contacts, notes, and tasks associated with page leads. Depending on your workflow, you may also use PUT and DELETE endpoints to update or remove records.
Yes. After a Facebook Page event, Rankr can create a new task or update an existing one for the related contact. You can also attach notes with Page context to provide context for the follow-up.
No code options exist through Rankr’s connectors that integrate with the GHL Contacts API. You can configure triggers, actions, and mapping visually. If you need deeper customization, you can use developer APIs to extend the connector.
Required permissions include at least read access to contacts and any endpoints you wish to modify, such as tasks or notes. Ensure your app has the correct scope and that data sharing complies with terms.
API credentials are created in your GHL developer console or app settings. You will receive a client ID and secret, and set up a callback URL for OAuth. Store these securely and reference them in Rankr’s connector to establish a connection with the Contacts API.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
