Authenticate with OAuth 2.0 and request the scope: contacts.readonly. Store access tokens securely and refresh them before expiry.
During setup, grant Goodcall permission to access the Contacts API with the minimum required scope to copy and display contact information in your workflows.

The integration uses the scope contacts.readonly to securely fetch contact data from GHL. No write permissions are granted by default. This ensures data safety while you explore the workflow options in Goodcall.
You will typically set up OAuth 2.0 for the integration, which provides secure token-based access. A developer key is not required for read-only operations, but OAuth setup is essential for authenticated requests.
Read-only access primarily exposes GET endpoints such as GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes. These allow viewing but not modifying data.
With the readonly scope, you cannot create or update contacts from Goodcall. Those actions require a higher level of access and a different configuration.
Test the integration by running a sample query against a test contact and reviewing responses in Goodcall’s test environment. Validate data fields and ensure tokens are valid.
Data mapping supports core contact fields (name, email, phone) and related resources (tasks, notes) to enrich your CRM view. You can map fields to fit your Goodcall data model.
Error logs can be viewed in Goodcall’s integration dashboard and in the GHL API logs. Look for authentication errors, permission issues, or endpoint mismatches.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
