Required scope: contacts.readonly. The connection uses OAuth 2.0 to grant the Zapier App Connector access to your GHL data with the least privileges needed.
In Zapier, configure OAuth 2.0 for the Zapier App Connector and request the contacts.readonly scope. When you connect, you authorize access to your GHL data for the configured actions.
Supported endpoints include: 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 contact is created in Contacts API or an existing contact is updated.
Actions: fetch contact details, read notes, list tasks, and apply tags.
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, name, email, phone
Trigger: when a task is created or updated for a contact.
Actions: create, update, and mark tasks complete. Endpoints include POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed, DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId.
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed; DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
contactId, taskId, title, dueDate, status
Trigger: a note is added or updated for a contact.
Actions: read notes and fetch a single note. Endpoints: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id
GET /contacts/:contactId/notes; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id
contactId, noteId, noteText, timestamp
Automate repetitive contact workflows without writing code.
Sync data between Contacts API and Zapier with instant triggers and actions.
Bridge data between GHL and Google Meet to streamline scheduling and collaboration.
This glossary defines the building blocks: API endpoints, triggers, actions, and fields used to move data between GHL, Zapier, and Google Meet.
A specific URL path and HTTP method used to access a resource in the GHL API.
The process of granting an app access to GHL data securely via OAuth 2.0.
An open standard for authorizing apps to act on behalf of a user without sharing passwords.
The part of the URL that identifies the resource you are accessing.
Create a Zap that generates Google Meet meeting links when a new contact is added in the Contacts API and sends an invitation.
Automatically create calendar events when a contact’s tasks are created or due, keeping teams aligned.
Pull contact notes into outreach templates to personalize messages and campaigns.
Log in to your GHL account, authorize the Zapier App Connector, and grant it the contacts.readonly scope.
In Zapier, select the endpoints you need (for example GET /contacts/:contactId or POST /contacts/), and map fields such as name, email, notes, and tasks.
Run tests to verify data flows, then enable the Zap and monitor its activity.
The Contacts API in GHL exposes endpoints for reading and managing contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments. In Zapier, you can connect once, then build Zaps that read or write this data to automate workflows. Use the provided scopes to limit access to read-only operations when appropriate. This keeps your data safe while you automate routine tasks.
No coding is required for standard Zapier automations. The Zapier App Connector provides pre-built triggers and actions. If you need custom logic, you can extend your workflow with filters and paths, but the base setup is code-free.
Most commonly used endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and POST /contacts/. You can mix and match to fit your workflow. If you need notes, you can read notes via GET /contacts/:contactId/notes as well.
Data remains secure through OAuth 2.0 authorization and scoped access. Always apply the principle of least privilege by requesting only the scopes you need (for example, contacts.readonly). Regularly review connected apps and monitor activity logs within GHL and Zapier.
Yes. You can trigger actions from Google Meet related events when configured in Zapier. For example, a new meeting scheduled by a contact can trigger updates to tasks or notes in GHL, or send invites automatically.
Testing is done inside Zapier’s test run for each trigger and action. Validate field mappings, ensure API responses match expected structures, and monitor task and note creation flows. Use sample data to simulate real scenarios before going live.
API rate limits vary by plan. Check your GHL account’s rate limit documentation and the Zapier app’s quota. If you hit limits, consider batching requests, caching results, or staggering Zaps to avoid throttling.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
