Authenticate requests to the GHL Contacts API using API keys or OAuth 2.0, depending on your setup. This ensures secure access and proper permissions for data syncing.
Kylas CRM connections can be established via OAuth 2.0 or API tokens provided by your GHL account. Store credentials securely and rotate keys regularly.

Run test synchronizations and enable live automation with monitoring
The GHL Contacts API integration with Kylas CRM enables automated syncing of contacts, notes, tasks, and appointments between systems without coding. It is designed for teams who manage contact data in both platforms and want a single source of truth. By connecting, you unlock real time updates and consistent data across tools.
You can sync core contact data such as name, email, phone, and company, along with notes, tasks, and appointments. Tags and business associations can also be mirrored. Real time updates help ensure both systems reflect the latest information across teams.
Authenticate using OAuth 2.0 or API tokens. In the Zapier app, configure credentials in the connection screen and test the linkage. Maintain secure credential storage and rotate keys regularly.
Endpoints include GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE operations for contacts, tasks, notes, and tags. The integration leverages the 17 listed endpoints to drive syncing, while not all may be needed for every workflow.
Use the built in test feature to run sample synchronizations. Check the logs and verify data in Kylas after each test. Adjust mappings as needed before going live.
Yes. The integration can support bidirectional syncing if configured for two way updates. Webhooks can push real time changes from one system to the other.
If data isn’t syncing, verify credentials and permissions, confirm endpoint availability, review field mappings, and check for rate limits. Re-test the connection and consult logs for clues; contact support if needed.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
