Authenticate using OAuth 2.0 with your GHL account and the Focuster app. Ensure the scopes include read and write access to contacts.
To connect Focuster to GHL, create an OAuth client in Focuster and authorize it to access Contacts data. Save the client secret securely.
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, 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: A new or updated contact in Contacts API prompts a data sync to Focuster.
Actions: Retrieve contact details via GET /contacts/:contactId and update Focuster contact fields; attach related tasks, notes, and appointments.
Method paths include GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch core data and related endpoints for enriched fields.
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, companyId.
Trigger: When a contact task is created or updated in Contacts API.
Actions: Create corresponding tasks in Focuster; update notes as activity records.
Endpoint examples include GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes.
Key fields: taskId, contactId, status, dueDate.
Trigger: Nightly batch sync ensures consistency across systems.
Actions: Use GET /contacts/ and related endpoints to fetch all records, then batch update notes and tasks in Focuster.
Endpoint orchestration uses GET /contacts/ and other endpoints for bulk operations.
Fields: contactId, updatedAt, lastActivity.
No code setup enables automatic data flow between Contacts API and Focuster using OAuth credentials and mapping rules.
Real time data sync across contacts, tasks, notes and appointments improves decision making without writing code.
Centralized contact activity in Focuster makes collaboration faster and more efficient.
Understand the core elements and processes when connecting the GHL Contacts API to Focuster for a smooth no code integration.
A URL path and method used to access a specific resource in the API.
The process of verifying identity and permissions to access API resources.
A callback mechanism that notifies your app when data changes in the source system.
Authorization framework that grants access to resources on behalf of a user or app.
Automatically pull notes and upcoming tasks to enrich each contact record in Focuster.
Trigger workflows when contact updates occur in the API to keep timelines current.
Create dashboards showing latest contact activity by endpoint for quick insights.
In GHL, generate an API token or OAuth client and configure it in Focuster.
Grant read and write scopes for contacts as needed for your use case.
Test calls against endpoints such as GET /contacts/:contactId and ensure data flows to Focuster.
No coding is required. Use the GHL developer credentials to authorize Focuster as a connected app. The integration acts as a consumer of the Contacts API within GHL. You can manage mappings and triggers from the Focuster settings panel without writing code. Future updates may provide additional built in templates for common workflows.
You can sync core contact data along with related tasks, notes and appointments. Typical fields include contactId, name, email, phone, and companyId. You can enable read and write permissions to update notes and tasks from Focuster as needed, with field mappings configured in the integration.
The connection uses OAuth 2.0 and token based authentication. Access is protected with scopes and secure storage of client credentials. Data in transit should be encrypted and endpoints can be further secured via IP restrictions as supported by the platform.
Yes. You can choose which endpoints to enable and map fields accordingly. Start with read only access for basic syncing and elevate to write access for tasks or notes as required by your automation needs.
Sync can occur in near real time if webhooks are available and configured. If not, you can set up periodic polling intervals to keep data fresh without manual intervention.
Yes. This integration can complement Zapier or other automation tools. You can use Zapier to trigger actions based on GHL Contacts API events and then push updates to Focuster or vice versa.
API credentials are managed in the GHL developer portal or the OAuth client section in Focuster. Save your client id and secret securely and rotate them according to your security policies.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
