This section defines API terms, data flows, and how endpoints map to openHandwerk records.
Application Programming Interface a set of endpoints and protocols that enable apps to communicate with services like GHL.
Methods to verify identity and grant access to resources using tokens or keys such as OAuth or API keys.
A URL pattern combined with an HTTP method that accesses a specific resource.
A data object exposed by the API such as contacts tasks notes or appointments.
Use the POST /contacts to create a new contact and automatically generate initial tasks via POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks.
Map notes from GHL to an activity log in openHandwerk to maintain a complete history.
Leverage GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments to surface reminders and follow ups.
Register your app in GHL obtain client ID and secret and authorize the app to access contacts data.

Run tests verify data integrity and deploy the integration to production.
The Contacts API lets you read and manage contact data in GHL from external apps. Use endpoints to fetch contact records, tasks, notes and more. This enables seamless syncing with openHandwerk and other tools. Start with read access and expand to write actions as your workflow scales. The API supports typical REST patterns and predictable field mappings.
Yes you can build without code using connectors or automation platforms. If you need custom logic you can extend with code however the no code approach covers most needs. Securely store API keys or OAuth credentials and follow best practices for rate limits and retries.

Yes you can sync tasks notes and appointments between GHL and openHandwerk. Map fields precisely and set triggers to keep both systems up to date. Validate data integrity with test runs.
Test the connection using sample contacts and simulate real workflows. Check authentication tokens, endpoint responses and data mappings. Use sandbox or staging environments before going live.
