Authenticate your calls using your GHL API credentials. Use OAuth 2.0 token flow or a secure API key, and ensure the scope is set to contacts.readonly to limit access to read data only.
Configure FastField Mobile Forms to use the GHL API credentials to authorize requests to the Contacts API. Store credentials securely and rotate them per your security policy.
Key endpoints and actions: GET /contacts/:contactId — fetch a single contact GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — fetch tasks for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — fetch a specific task GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — fetch notes for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — fetch a specific note GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — fetch appointments GET /contacts/ — list all contacts GET /contacts/business/:businessId — fetch contacts for a business POST /contacts/ — create a contact PUT /contacts/:contactId — update a contact DELETE /contacts/:contactId — delete a contact POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — create a task PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — update a task PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — mark a task as completed DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — delete a task POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — add tags to a contact
Trigger: when you select a contact in FastField Mobile Forms, fetch the core contact data and its related tasks from the Contacts API.
Actions: sync the contact and task data to APPNAME records, create or update tasks in FastField, and reflect changes back to the CRM as needed.
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, name, email, phone, tasks (title, status), notes (content)
Trigger: open a contact to pull its notes from the Contacts API.
Actions: store notes in APPNAME client notes and keep notes synced on changes.
GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
notes.id, content, date
Trigger: a new task is created in APPNAME and needs to be pushed to GHL.
Actions: create a task in GHL via POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, assign to the contact, set due date and status.
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
title, dueDate, status, id
Automate data flow between the GHL Contacts API and FastField Mobile Forms without writing a line of code.
Reduce manual data entry, minimize errors, and speed up workflows across teams.
Real-time sync, triggers, and alerts keep everyone aligned and productive.
This section defines the core elements and processes: API endpoints, authentication methods, data mapping, error handling, and testing workflows used to integrate GHL with APPNAME.
A specific URL path used to perform an action in the API and return data.
The process to verify identity and grant access to API resources, typically via OAuth 2.0 or API keys.
A widely adopted authorization framework that lets apps obtain limited access without exposing user credentials.
Permissions attached to a token or app determining what data can be read or written.
When a form submission includes follow-up tasks, automatically create a task in FastField Mobile Forms linked to the contact in GHL to keep teams aligned.
Automatically push notes added in GHL to the client record in FastField, ensuring a complete history.
Use changes in task status as triggers to launch campaigns or reminders in FastField.
Obtain GHL API credentials and APPNAME integration keys; store them securely.
Map Contacts API endpoints to APPNAME fields and set up data mappings.
Run test requests, verify data synchronization, and set up alerts and dashboards for monitoring.
No deep coding knowledge is required. The integration is designed for teams using no-code tools to connect systems. You can configure endpoints, mapping, and triggers from the APPNAME dashboard. Two: Start with a sandbox or test environment, then progressively enable live data sync. Use the provided examples to validate that data flows correctly between the GHL Contacts API and FastField Mobile Forms.
You can read contact details, tasks, notes, and appointments. Write operations include creating or updating contacts and tasks, subject to your security and permission settings. Since the scope shown is readonly in this scenario, actual write permissions may require additional configuration. If you need write access, update the integration scope or use separate API credentials with write permissions from GHL.
Yes, you can create tasks in GHL from FastField Mobile Forms by mapping to POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks. Two: Ensure required fields like title and dueDate are provided and that the target contact exists before creating the task.
Security is ensured via OAuth 2.0 or API keys, with tokens restricted by scope. Keep credentials secure, rotate them periodically, and limit access to only what is necessary. Consider enabling IP allowlists and monitoring access logs to detect unusual activity.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and the API tier you use. In general, plan for moderate traffic and avoid burst-heavy requests. If you approach limits, implement exponential backoff, stagger your syncs, and cache data where appropriate.
Yes. Data mappings can be customized per contact type or business to suit different workflows. Use APPNAME data maps to align fields across systems. Test each mapping for accuracy and adjust as your data model evolves.
Use the built-in test endpoints and a sandbox environment to validate the flow before going live. Enable detailed logging and set up dashboards to monitor data integrity and sync status over time.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
