Authenticate requests with your GHL API credentials. Use an OAuth 2.0 bearer token and include the required scope, such as contacts.readonly, in your authorization header.
Hubflo uses the same OAuth 2.0 flow to obtain a valid access token that grants access to the Contacts API endpoints.
GET /contacts/:contactId — Retrieve a single contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Retrieve tasks for a contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Retrieve a specific task; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — Retrieve notes for a contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — Retrieve a note; GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — Retrieve appointments for a contact; GET /contacts/ — List all contacts; GET /contacts/business/:businessId — Retrieve contacts by business; contacts.write — Write access scope; POST /contacts/ — Create a new contact; PUT /contacts/:contactId — Update a contact; DELETE /contacts/:contactId — Delete a contact; POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Create a task for a contact; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Update a task; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — Mark a task as completed; DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Delete a task; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — Add tags to a contact
Trigger: When a contact is opened in Hubflo, pull the contact data and associated tasks from GHL.
Actions: GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Method path: GET /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: contactId, status, taskId
Trigger: Contact updates in Hubflo trigger updates in GHL.
Actions: PUT /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Method paths: PUT /contacts/:contactId; POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Key fields: contactId, lastUpdated, taskIds
Trigger: When a contact is removed in Hubflo, remove the contact and all related notes and tasks in GHL.
Actions: DELETE /contacts/:contactId, DELETE /contacts/:contactId/notes, DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Method paths: DELETE /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: contactId, deletionReason
Fast setup with a guided, no-code workflow that requires no server-side code.
Seamless data syncing between Hubflo and GHL so teams stay aligned.
Built-in error handling and retries reduce downtime.
Key elements and common processes you’ll encounter when connecting Hubflo with the GHL Contacts API.
The process of proving who you are to the GHL API and obtaining an access token to make requests.
A specific URL path in the API that performs an action, such as retrieving a contact or updating tasks.
A standard authorization framework that issues access tokens used to access GHL endpoints.
A callback URL that the API can post events to, enabling real-time notifications.
Automatically fetch contact details and suggest next tasks based on activity.
Create contact records and initialize onboarding tasks when a new partner signs up.
Use endpoint triggers to guide sales reps through a standardized set of steps.
Obtain client credentials and set the right scopes for contacts.readonly.
Map the Contacts API endpoints and set authentication details in Hubflo.
Run test requests, validate responses, and monitor logs for any issues.
You’ll need at least read access to the Contacts API to retrieve data. For updates, writes, or deletes, ensure your GHL app has the appropriate scope (for example, contacts.write) granted. Use OAuth 2.0 to request and refresh access tokens with the necessary scopes. In Hubflo, configure the app to request these scopes during the authorization flow. This keeps activities secure while enabling the integrations you need.
Authenticate by creating an app in GHL, obtaining client credentials (client_id and client_secret), and implementing the OAuth 2.0 authorization flow to obtain an access token. Include the token in the Authorization header as a Bearer token for each request. Refresh tokens as needed and ensure the access token is scoped to contacts.readonly (or higher as required).
Yes, with the appropriate scopes you can perform read and write operations. In this setup, the default scope shown is contacts.readonly, but you can request additional scopes (e.g., contacts.write) if your workflow requires creating or updating data. Always follow the principle of least privilege.
Rate limits are enforced per endpoint and can vary by plan. Plan for bursts by batching requests when possible and implementing exponential backoff on 429 responses. Monitor rate-limit headers in responses to remain within allowed quotas.
Field mapping is done in Hubflo by linking Hubflo fields to corresponding GHL contact fields. Use the endpoint responses to identify field names and set up mapping rules so updates flow accurately between systems. Validate mappings with test records.
Webhooks are supported for real-time updates. Configure a webhook in GHL to push events to Hubflo, such as contact updates or task changes, and build downstream automations in Hubflo to react to those events.
Yes. Hubflo provides no-code connectors and templates to set up common scenarios without writing code. You can leverage prebuilt blocks to trigger actions based on GHL events and to sync data between GHL and Hubflo.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
