Use OAuth 2.0 or an API key to securely authorize requests to GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE endpoints. Store keys safely and rotate regularly.
Register Flocksy in the GHL developer console to obtain a client ID and secret, then configure the app to request the contacts scope.
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: new or updated contact in Flocksy triggers a fetch to GET /contacts/:contactId
Actions: pull contact data, assign tags, create tasks as needed
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, name, email
Trigger: a task updates in Flocksy or GHL triggers a task sync
Actions: PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId and PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed
PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
taskId, status, dueDate
Trigger: creating or updating notes in GHL to mirror in Flocksy
Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/notes
POST /contacts/:contactId/notes
noteId, content, createdAt
Automate data flow without writing code using pre-built endpoints and triggers
Reduce manual data entry and errors by syncing contacts, tasks, and notes automatically
Faster go-to-market with ready-to-use integration patterns and templates
Learn terms like authentication, endpoints, triggers, actions, and data fields, plus how they fit into your GHL–Flocksy workflow.
A set of rules that allow apps to communicate and share data programmatically.
A specific URL path in an API that performs a predefined action.
A method to verify identity before granting access to resources.
An event that starts an automation sequence.
When a client signs up in Flocksy, automatically create a contact in GHL and assign initial tasks.
Create tasks in GHL when new tasks are added in Flocksy and keep status synchronized.
Post meeting summaries from Flocksy to GHL notes via the API.
Create a GHL developer app to obtain client credentials for Flocksy.
Select endpoints such as GET /contacts/:contactId and POST /contacts/ to power your flows.
Set triggers and actions in Flocksy to automatically sync data with GHL.
The Contacts API exposes endpoints to read and manage contact data, including GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks. You can retrieve details, tasks, notes, and related data to build rich workflows. Use the API alongside proper authentication and data mapping to automate processes in Flocksy while keeping data in sync with GHL.
To authenticate with GHL, use OAuth 2.0 or an API key issued from the GHL developer portal. This ensures only authorized apps can access contact data. Store credentials securely, rotate keys regularly, and scope requests to the minimum required access (e.g., contacts.readonly for read operations).
Yes. The Contacts API supports creating, updating, and deleting contacts via POST, PUT, and DELETE endpoints. For example, POST /contacts/ creates a new contact, PUT /contacts/:contactId updates details, and DELETE /contacts/:contactId removes a record. Implement validations to prevent data loss.
Notes and tasks can be attached to a contact using endpoints like POST /contacts/:contactId/notes and PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId. Synchronize changes in real time by triggering updates from Flocksy to GHL and vice versa, ensuring both systems reflect the latest information.
Data mapping aligns fields between Flocksy and GHL, including name, email, phone, tags, tasks, and notes. Plan a mapping schema before building automations. Use consistent data types and handle missing values gracefully to avoid import errors or duplicates.
Rate limits vary by plan and endpoint; heavy automation may require batching requests or queuing. If you hit limits, space out calls, cache results where possible, and consult the GHL API guidelines for best practices.
API keys are accessed from the GHL developer portal under your app settings. You’ll use the client ID/secret or a generated API key depending on your auth flow. Securely store keys in your app and rotate them periodically; never expose keys in client-side code or public repositories.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
