Authorize Fantastical to access your GHL Contacts data using API keys and OAuth scopes. Scope: contacts.readonly.
Grant Fantastical permission to read contact data and related resources via the GHL API, ensuring secure access.
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, contacts.write, 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: updating a contact in Fantastical pushes changes to GHL and reflects in other connected apps.
Actions: create, update, and tag contacts; sync related tasks and notes.
Method Path: Use GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch details and PUT /contacts/:contactId to update.
Key Fields: id, name, email, phone, tags, notes, tasks
Trigger: when a task or note is created or updated in Fantastical, mirror changes in GHL.
Actions: create/update tasks with POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks and PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId; attach notes via GET/PUT notes.
Method Path: Utilize endpoints 2,3,6,13-16 and 4-5 for notes as needed.
Key Fields: taskId, contactId, status, dueDate, description, noteId, content
Trigger: updates to business associations should sync with related contacts.
Actions: fetch /contacts/business/:businessId and attach to contact records; sync with Fantastical calendars.
Method Path: GET /contacts/business/:businessId
Key Fields: businessId, businessName, industry
Rapid setup with no code required thanks to ready-made API endpoints and simple triggers.
Create powerful workflows that bring contact data, tasks, and notes into Fantastical’s calendar and reminders.
Scale teams quickly with templates and repeatable automation.
Key elements include API endpoints, authentication, data fields, triggers, and actions used to connect Fantastical with GHL Contacts data.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that enables apps to communicate and exchange data.
OAuth tokens and API keys used to securely authorize access to data.
A URL path that performs a specific action or returns data from the API.
Permissions granted to an app to access particular data categories.
Automatically pull key contact dates into Fantastical to keep your calendar up-to-date.
When a contact changes, create or update tasks to track follow-ups.
Link contact notes with calendar events for context at a glance.
Obtain your API key and set the scope to contacts.readonly.
Complete the OAuth flow to grant permissions for reading contact data.
Run sample requests to verify data sync and go live.
Fantastical can access contact data such as names, emails, phones, and basic notes via the Contacts API, within the scope you grant (readonly in this setup). You can read contact lists and retrieve associated tasks and notes, then surface them in Fantastical calendars and reminders. All access respects permission settings and user consent. If you enable more than readonly scope, Fantastical could create or update records as allowed by your authentication.
No heavy coding is required. Use the pre-defined endpoints and triggers to automate data flow. Set up OAuth, configure scopes, and test with sample requests. The UI can guide you through enabling read-only access before enabling writes.
The most used endpoints are GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch details, GET /contacts/ to list, and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to pull tasks. For updates, PUT /contacts/:contactId and POST /contacts/ are common.
Use test mode or sandbox, run a few test requests, verify data appears in Fantastical. Check webhooks and OAuth scopes. Monitor logs for errors and rate limits.
Authentication uses OAuth tokens and API keys. Store credentials securely, rotate keys regularly, and limit access by roles. Use the least-privilege principle.
Yes, you can map tags from Contacts to Fantastical tasks or events to help categorize items. Tags flow depends on your app’s data model and how you configure the integration.
Rate limits vary by endpoint; monitor the response headers for quotas and implement retry logic. If you hit limits, reduce frequency or batch requests. Support is available if you need higher quotas.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
