Learn how to obtain and use API credentials (OAuth tokens or API keys) to authorize requests to the GHL Contacts API from Jenkins.
Store and use credentials securely in Jenkins, using the credential store or vault, to access the GHL API endpoints.
Primary 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. Note: scopes like contacts.write apply to create/update/delete actions.
Trigger: when a contact is retrieved or updated in GHL, fetch associated tasks to mirror status in Jenkins.
Actions: create, update, or complete tasks in Jenkins workflows based on task data.
Method/path: GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Key fields: contactId, taskId
Trigger: new or updated notes in GHL.
Actions: push notes to Jenkins as comments or as structured data in build steps.
Method/path: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
Key fields: contactId, id
Trigger: new or updated appointments in GHL.
Actions: create calendar events or update Jenkins pipelines.
Method/path: GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments
Key fields: contactId, appointmentId
Automate repetitive workflows without writing code.
Real-time data sync across systems via API triggers.
Centralized control and easy maintenance.
Elements: APIs, endpoints, triggers, actions, and authentication. Processes: connect, map fields, test, and deploy.
A set of rules that allow apps to communicate and share data.
A specific URL path that exposes a resource for reading or modifying data.
Credentials or tokens used to verify identity before API access is granted.
A callback URL that delivers real-time data to an app when an event occurs.
Auto-create Jenkins tasks when a new contact is added in GHL.
Sync task status and notes back to GHL for complete visibility.
Trigger Jenkins pipelines when appointments are scheduled or updated.
Obtain API credentials for GHL and securely store in Jenkins.
Map endpoints to Jenkins jobs and configure triggers.
Run tests, validate data flow, and deploy.
No coding is required when using the Zapier App Connector; a friendly UI lets you map fields and set triggers. For advanced flows, you can add custom scripts or webhooks to extend capabilities.
The integration supports common REST methods such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE. Use the endpoints listed above to read, create, update, or remove data in the Contacts API from Jenkins.
Security is achieved with OAuth2 or API keys; data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Rotate credentials regularly and use least-privilege scopes.
Yes. You can map fields between GHL and Jenkins, and use payload templates or field mappings to control what data flows where.
Enable retry logic, configure error handling in Jenkins, and monitor logs to pinpoint issues quickly.
Rate limits depend on your plan and the endpoints used. Plan-based allowances apply; expect throttling under heavy loads.
Logs appear in Zapier task history and GHL audit logs. Use both sources to troubleshoot and verify data movement.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
