Use your GHL API credentials to securely authorize access to the Contacts API from the Zapier App Connector.
Configure OAuth or API key methods in the Zapier App Connector to protect your data.
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
Trigger when a specific contact is retrieved or updated, enabling downstream actions.
Actions: get, create, update, or delete a contact.
Example: GET /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone
Trigger when a contact’s tasks are created or updated.
Actions: list tasks, create task, update task, complete task, delete task.
Example: GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Key fields: taskId, taskName, status, dueDate
Trigger when notes are added to a contact.
Actions: list notes, create note, update note, delete note.
Example: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
Key fields: noteId, content, createdAt
Automate data flows between GHL and other apps without writing code.
Keep contact data synchronized in real-time across platforms.
Build multi-step automations to save time and reduce errors.
Key concepts and processes to understand when connecting GHL with the Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action against the API.
The process of proving your identity to access the API (OAuth, API keys, etc.).
An API call with parameters to fetch or modify data.
A callback URL that the API uses to send real-time data to your app.
Use webhooks to push contact changes into Zapier and trigger downstream workflows.
Create tasks in GHL from events in other apps (CRMs, ticketing, form submits).
Aggregate notes to generate summaries and smarter automations.
Connect GHL with the Zapier App Connector using your API credentials.
Select which endpoints to use in your Zaps and map fields.
Create multi-step Zaps that respond to contact events.
The GHL Contacts API allows you to read and write contact data within your GHL account. It exposes endpoints to fetch contacts, tasks, notes, appointments, and more. Use these endpoints to drive automations in Zapier without ever leaving your workflow.
Authentication requires a GHL API key or OAuth flow configured in the Zapier App Connector. Ensure your credentials are kept secure and never exposed in plain text.
The endpoints include a variety of read and write operations such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE across contacts, tasks, notes, and more. See the endpoint list for specifics.
Yes. You can update and delete contacts, tasks, notes, and other related records via supported endpoints. Ensure you have the right permissions.
No heavy coding is required. Zapier’s interface lets you connect apps with pre-built actions and triggers, while the GHL API handles the data operations.
Realtime-ish. Webhooks and polling provide timely updates, but exact latency depends on your Zaps and endpoint usage.
API rate limits are defined by GHL. Check your account’s docs for current limits and best practices.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
