Use your GHL API credentials to authorize requests from FITR. The required scope is contacts.readonly for read operations; you can request additional scopes for write actions when needed.
To authorize FITR to access the Contacts API, configure OAuth or API key within FITR’s integration settings, grant the required scopes, and test the connection.
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: When a contact is updated in GHL, fetch the latest data and update the corresponding contact in FITR.
Actions: Retrieve /contacts/:contactId and related /contacts/:contactId/tasks to sync status and tasks into FITR.
GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
contactId, email, firstName, lastName, phone, taskIds
Trigger: New or updated contact in FITR creates/updates a contact in the GHL Contacts API.
Actions: POST /contacts/ to create; PUT /contacts/:contactId to update; POST /contacts/:contactId/notes to attach notes.
POST /contacts/; PUT /contacts/:contactId; POST /contacts/:contactId/notes
email, name, notes content, businessId
Trigger: FITR status or tags change updates GHL contact tags
Actions: PUT /contacts/:contactId to update status; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags to apply tags.
PUT /contacts/:contactId; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags
contactId, tags, status
Automate data synchronization between systems without writing code
Eliminate manual data entry with real-time updates
Create a unified customer view for faster workflows
Key elements include API endpoints, authentication, data mapping, triggers, and actions used to automate your FITR to GHL data flow.
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to access a resource in an API.
The process of proving identity and gaining permission to access the API.
A method for receiving real-time notifications from an API when data changes.
The process of aligning fields between FITR and GHL so data syncs correctly.
When a new lead is captured in FITR, automatically create a contact in the Contacts API.
When a task is updated in GHL, push the update to FITR to keep both systems aligned.
Use tags in GHL to trigger automation in FITR and vice versa.
Create GHL API credentials and authorize the FITR app to access the Contacts API.
Define how FITR fields map to GHL contact fields and related resources like notes and tasks.
Run tests, validate data flows, and enable the live integration.
The Contacts API in FITR lets you read contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments linked to each contact. You can also create and update contacts as needed. Start with read-only access to explore the data model, then request additional permissions if your workflow requires write actions. This keeps your data safe while you learn the integration. If you need to create or modify data (e.g., add tasks or update notes), you can request write permissions. Begin with read access to validate your setup before enabling broader permissions.
Write permissions are controlled via OAuth scopes; you should request the contacts.write scope for creating or updating resources. Ensure your FITR integration is approved by an admin before enabling write access to prevent unintended changes. For safety, start with read-only access and gradually elevate permissions as your use case demands.
Authentication typically uses OAuth with API keys or tokens. Your FITR app must be whitelisted to access the GHL Contacts API. Refresh tokens periodically and store credentials securely; rotate credentials if a breach is suspected. Always test authentication in a sandbox or staging environment before going live.
For syncing, use read endpoints to pull contact data and related tasks/notes. Writes should use POST, PUT, or DELETE endpoints as appropriate. Map fields carefully (e.g., email, name, phone) to ensure data consistency across systems. Prioritize endpoints that align with your workflow, such as GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks for read operations, and POST /contacts/ for creation when needed.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and API usage. Plan for bursts during initial syncs and implement exponential backoff on 429 responses. Monitor your logs and adjust request frequency to stay within allowed quotas. If you anticipate high volume, contact support to discuss higher limits or optimization strategies.
Data mapping involves aligning FITR fields with corresponding GHL fields. Start with core fields like email, firstName, lastName, and phone, then map notes, tasks, and tags as needed. Use consistent formats to avoid data mismatches and ensure timestamps are in a compatible format. Document your mapping rules so future changes are predictable and maintainable.
Yes. You can use a sandbox or test environment to validate the integration with sample data. Run end-to-end tests for read and write operations, verify data integrity, and confirm that automations trigger as expected before switching to a live connection. After successful testing, deploy the integration and monitor initial runs closely for any anomalies.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
