Use OAuth 2.0 tokens or API keys as required by your security policy. The integration uses OAuth 2.0 for Zapier to securely access Contacts data.
Zapier uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow to connect to GHL and securely exchange tokens for API access.

Automate drag and drop style workflows without coding by syncing contacts and tasks between GHL and your apps.
Maintain a single source of truth with real time updates across connected tools.
Deploy automations in minutes using familiar REST endpoints and Zapier triggers.
Key elements include endpoints authentication field mappings and workflow processes that drive reliable data transfers.
A set of rules that lets software programs communicate over a network.
A specific URL that exposes a resource or action in an API.
An authorization framework that grants access tokens without sharing user credentials.
A callback URL that notifies your app when an event occurs in another app.
Capture new form submissions in your app and create Contacts API records automatically in GHL.
When a task is updated, create or update corresponding tasks in the Contacts API.
Keep contact info synced between GHL and your CRM via Zapier.
Grant OAuth access from Zapier to your GHL account to begin.
Choose the Contacts fields to sync to your app and vice versa.
Run tests verify data mapping and activate the Zap.
The Zapier App Connector lets you link the Contacts API with your other apps without writing custom code. It provides simple triggers and actions to move data between GHL and your tools. You can read create or update contact data as part of your automation. The integration is designed to be beginner friendly with clear field mapping and error handling. If you need more help, consult the endpoint docs and glossary for terms and examples.
No heavy coding is required. You set up a Zap with the Contacts API endpoints selecting triggers and actions. The UI guides you through field mapping and error handling. If you prefer code free automation, use the prebuilt templates in Zapier for common contact workflows.
Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 tokens to authorize access to the Contacts API and the Zapier App Connector. You will exchange client credentials for access tokens and refresh tokens as needed. This keeps credentials secure while enabling seamless data transfers.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
