To call the Contacts API securely, authenticate with OAuth 2.0 tokens or an API key. Store credentials securely and rotate them regularly.
Fomo authenticates external API connections with standard OAuth flows or API keys to authorize requests to the Contacts API.
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 created or updated in GHL and push the change to Fomo to start a corresponding action.
Actions: create or update the contact in Fomo, sync tags, and attach related notes or tasks.
Uses GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch the latest data, and POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to create tasks in Fomo as needed.
contactId, firstName, lastName, email, phone, tags, notes
Trigger when a task is created or updated in GHL to mirror the status in Fomo.
Actions: create or update tasks in Fomo; set due dates; synchronize status across both systems.
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed
taskId, subject, dueDate, status, priority
Trigger when a note or appointment is created or updated in GHL to reflect in Fomo.
Actions: create or update notes and appointments in Fomo; link to the related contact for context.
GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, POST /contacts/:contactId/appointments
noteId, content, date, appointmentId

Automatically start a targeted Fomo campaign when a contact changes in GHL to boost engagement.
Sync notes from GHL to Fomo’s activity log for better context and collaboration.
Mirror tasks between GHL and Fomo so teams see a single, up-to-date workload view.
Obtain API keys or OAuth client IDs from GHL and configure them in Fomo’s app connector.
Map Contacts API endpoints to Fomo actions in the Zapier App Connector and set field mappings.
Run validation tests, verify data sync, and monitor for errors once the integration is live.
The Contacts API integration with Fomo lets you sync contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments between GHL and Fomo to automate processes without writing code. It enables real-time updates and centralized data workflows for better team collaboration. With a no-code approach, you can configure triggers, actions, and mappings in a visual interface, then monitor performance from a single dashboard.
No traditional coding is required. The setup uses a Zapier App Connector or similar middleware to connect GHL’s API with Fomo. You configure authentication, endpoints, and field mappings through guided steps, then enable automation with a flip of a switch. For advanced needs, you can still extend the flow with custom webhooks or additional steps in the connector.
Common endpoints include retrieving and updating contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments such as GET /contacts/:contactId and POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks. You’ll map these to corresponding Fomo actions to keep data in sync across platforms. You can tailor which endpoints are active based on your workflow requirements to minimize API usage and optimize performance.
Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 tokens or API keys, with token rotation and secure storage. Access scopes (like contacts.readonly) define what data the integration can retrieve or modify. Regular credential rotation and least-privilege access help keep data secure. Always use HTTPS and store credentials in a secure vault or secret manager within your automation platform.
Yes. Field mappings let you align GHL contact fields with Fomo fields, including custom fields. You can map identifiers, names, emails, and tags, and you can create rules to handle missing fields gracefully. This ensures data consistency and accurate downstream automations in Fomo.
Testing should be done in a staging environment where you can simulate real data without affecting live records. Use sample contacts and tasks to verify triggers, actions, and field mappings. After successful tests, enable monitoring and alerting to catch any issues in production.
You can view status and errors in the integration’s console or logs within your automation platform. Look for failed requests, rate limits, or authentication errors, and use built-in retry and alert features to resolve issues quickly. For persistent problems, consult the connection diagnostics and adjust scopes, credentials, or mappings as needed.
