How to Connect Keeper to Contacts API

Seamlessly sync Contacts API data with Keeper to manage contacts, tasks, and notes.

A practical guide to linking Contacts API with Keeper

This guide walks you through authenticating with GHL, selecting the right endpoints, and configuring Keeper to receive two way data sync without writing code. Learn which endpoints to call, how to map fields, and how to test the integration end to end.

Authentication for Contacts API

Use your GHL developer credentials to obtain an API key with the scope: contacts.readonly. This ensures Keeper can retrieve contact information securely.

Keeper authentication

Keeper authenticates incoming requests via API keys issued to your Keeper app. Use the assigned client ID and secret to authorize requests and set up secure webhooks.

Key Endpoints for the Contacts API integration

1) GET /contacts/:contactId 2) GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks 3) GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId 4) GET /contacts/:contactId/notes 5) GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id 6) GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments 7) GET /contacts/ 8) GET /contacts/business/:businessId 9) contacts.write 10) POST /contacts/ 11) PUT /contacts/:contactId 12) DELETE /contacts/:contactId 13) POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks 14) PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId 15) PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed 16) DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId 17) POST /contacts/:contactId/tags

Top 3 Connections Between Contacts API and Keeper

1) Retrieve a contact and sync its tasks

Trigger: when a new contact is added in GHL, Keeper creates the contact record and pulls related tasks.

Actions: GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch data; POST /contacts/ to create in Keeper when needed; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to pull tasks; link tasks to the contact in Keeper.

Methods and paths: GET /contacts/:contactId; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks; POST /contacts/ to create or update Keeper records.

Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, tasks array, notes.

2) Update contact notes and appointments in Keeper

Trigger: updates in GHL notes or appointments refresh Keeper records.

Actions: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes and GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments; PUT /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id to update notes; keep appointments in sync.

Methods and paths: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes; GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments; PUT /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id.

Key fields: contactId, noteId, noteContent, appointmentId, date.

3) Create and tag contacts for better organization

Trigger: new or updated contacts get tagged in Keeper based on GHL properties.

Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/tags with tag names; update tag mappings as properties change.

Paths: POST /contacts/:contactId/tags; GET /contacts/:contactId; PUT /contacts/:contactId.

Key fields: contactId, tags, tagName.

No code benefits of connecting Keeper with Contacts API

No code setup lets you automate data flow between GHL and Keeper without custom development.

Maintain a single source of truth by syncing contacts, notes, and tasks across platforms automatically.

Scale efficiently with reusable endpoints and predictable data mappings for fast onboarding.

Key terms and glossary

This glossary covers core concepts used in the Keeper and Contacts API integration, including API, endpoints, authentication, and data mapping.

API

An API is a set of defined endpoints that allow software to communicate and exchange data safely and predictably.

Endpoint

A specific URL path in an API used to perform a defined action on a resource.

OAuth 2.0

OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework that issues access tokens to authorize API requests without sharing user credentials.

Webhook

A webhook is a URL endpoint that is called automatically by an app when a defined event occurs to push real time updates.

Creative ideas for integrating Keeper with Contacts API

Idea 1: Auto create Keeper contacts from GHL form submissions

When a GHL form is submitted, automatically create or update the corresponding contact in Keeper and attach initial tasks for onboarding.

Idea 2: Sync notes and activities on task updates

Link task status changes in GHL to notes and upcoming meetings in Keeper to keep teams aligned.

Idea 3: Tag based lead scoring in Keeper from GHL

Automatically assign Keeper tags based on contact properties in GHL to drive segmentation and prioritization.

3 Steps to Connect Keeper with Contacts API

Step 1: Gather credentials

Create an API key in GHL with the scope contacts.readonly and note your client secret for Keeper configuration.

Step 2: Configure Keeper

Enter the GHL API key in Keeper and map the relevant endpoints to your data model.

Step 3: Test and deploy

Run end to end tests, verify data syncing, and monitor logs before going live.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I authenticate with the GHL Contacts API?

Authenticate using the GHL developer portal to obtain an API key with the scope contacts.readonly. Include the key in your Keeper connector settings and use it in authorization headers for each call. This ensures read only access to contacts data. If you need write access, request an appropriate scope from your GHL admin and update Keeper mappings accordingly. Keep credentials secure and rotate keys regularly. Use least privilege by granting only the necessary scope for the integration.

A good starting point is GET /contacts/:contactId to retrieve a contact, followed by GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to pull related tasks. This allows you to establish the core data model in Keeper. Expand to notes and appointments as you validate the mappings and ensure data integrity.

Yes, Keeper can push data back to GHL when you enable write endpoints and permissions. Use POST and PUT endpoints like POST /contacts/:contactId/tags and PUT /contacts/:contactId to update records. Ensure proper validation and conflict handling to avoid data loss or duplication.

No heavy coding is required if you use the GHL to Keeper connector or a middleware workflow. You can configure API keys, endpoint mappings, and field mappings through the UI. Some light scripting may be used for complex transformations, but many scenarios are achievable with no code.

Common issues include authentication failures, rate limits, and mis-mapped fields. Use proper error handling in Keeper to retry failed calls, implement exponential backoff, and log errors for debugging. Monitor API quota and adjust scope or batching as needed.

Typically you can sync contacts, their tasks, notes, and appointments. You can also propagate tags to aid segmentation. Field mappings determine how name, email, phone, and other properties are stored in Keeper for each contact.

API docs and the endpoint list are available in your GHL developer console and Keeper connector documentation. Review the sequence of calls and the required authentication steps before you begin integration.
