Use OAuth 2.0 with your GHL API credentials to securely access contact data.
GoTo Webinar uses its own API keys or OAuth flow; ensure the app is authorized to receive attendee data.
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 contact record is created or changes in Contacts API.
Actions: push contact details to GoTo Webinar as attendee or update existing attendee.
Example path: GET /contacts/:contactId to pull fields before syncing.
Key fields: contactId, email, firstName, lastName, status, tags.
Trigger: new or updated attendee status triggers a webinar event.
Actions: create or update attendee in GoTo Webinar and attach contact notes.
Example: PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId to mark completed after webinar.
Key fields: contactId, webinarId, attendanceStatus.
Trigger: new notes or tasks added in Contacts API.
Actions: create tasks in Contacts API from webinar outcomes; update notes.
Example: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to assign a follow-up.
Key fields: contactId, taskId, taskTitle, dueDate.
No-code automation: set up data flows without writing code.

The process of proving identity and obtaining access tokens for API calls.
A callback URL provided to receive event notifications from the API.
Automatically push new or updated contacts to GoTo Webinar attendees.
Verify contact eligibility and add to webinar lists based on criteria.
Create follow-up tasks or notes for contacts after a webinar.
Obtain your API key and set up OAuth for both services.
Map the required endpoints from Contacts API to GoTo Webinar actions.
Create Zapier or native integrations to automate syncing.
To authenticate the GHL Contacts API, begin by creating a new OAuth app in your GHL developer console and grant permissions for contacts.readonly. Then exchange the authorization code for an access token and a refresh token, storing them securely. Regularly rotate tokens and use the refresh token flow to maintain uninterrupted access. For GoTo Webinar, ensure your app is authorized to access attendee data through the GoTo Webinar API and use the appropriate OAuth scopes. Keep client secrets confidential and implement token expiry handling in your integration.
Essential endpoints for attendee syncing include retrieving contact records (GET /contacts/:contactId), reading and updating attendee-related data (GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks), and updating participation status (PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed). Map these fields to GoTo Webinar attendee creation or update operations to keep webinar lists in sync. Always validate response data and handle errors gracefully to prevent partial updates.
Yes. No-code automation platforms like Zapier or built-in connectors can orchestrate the flow between GHL Contacts API and GoTo Webinar. You can trigger actions on contact events (create/update) and perform downstream tasks such as creating attendees, adding notes, or scheduling follow-ups without writing code. Start with a simple workflow and gradually add conditions and branching as your needs grow.
Minimal or no coding is required if you use a no-code integration service. You will configure triggers, actions, and field mappings through guided UI. Some basic scripting may be used for advanced transformations, but most common use cases are achievable with point-and-click configuration.
Common errors include expired tokens, insufficient scopes, or rate limiting. Implement robust error handling, store tokens securely, and refresh them before expiry. Use exponential backoff for retries and log errors to diagnose issues quickly. Consider batching requests where possible to reduce rate limits.
Logging should capture API calls, responses, and any sync events. Store logs in a centralized location and monitor for failures. Use structured logs with timestamps, endpoints, and error codes to simplify troubleshooting and auditing.
OAuth security requires keeping client credentials confidential, using HTTPS, and validating tokens. Implement short-lived access tokens with refresh tokens and enforce least privilege by requesting only necessary scopes. Regularly rotate credentials and monitor for unusual activity.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
