Authenticate requests to the Contacts API using your GHL credentials. Use OAuth tokens or API keys as provided, and store credentials securely in Overloop’s API connections area.
In Overloop, add your GHL credentials in Settings > API Connections, then authorize Overloop to access Contacts, Tasks, Notes, and Appointments.
Endpoints covered include: 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: a contact is created or updated in GHL; Overloop fetches the latest data and updates the corresponding contact and tasks.
Actions: create or update the contact in Overloop; pull in related tasks and notes to keep everything in sync.
Example: GET /contacts/:contactId followed by GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to assemble a complete view.
Key fields: id, name, email, phone, tags, lastUpdated
Trigger: a task is created or updated in GHL; Overloop creates or updates the corresponding task.
Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to Overloop; update status when completed.
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Key fields: taskId, title, dueDate, status, priority
Trigger: a note is added in GHL; Overloop attaches it to the related contact timeline.
Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/notes to Overloop; timeline shows notes and activity.
POST /contacts/:contactId/notes
Key fields: id, note, timestamp
Zero-code data synchronization saves hours of manual data entry and reduces errors.
Rapid setup with the Overloop App Connector and secure OAuth credentials.
A unified view of contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments across GHL and Overloop.
A concise glossary of key terms and processes used in the GHL Contacts API and Overloop integration.
A set of endpoints and methods that allow apps to read, write, update, and delete contact data.
How apps prove identity to access the API, typically via OAuth tokens or API keys.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an operation on a resource.
A URL that GHL can call to notify your app about events or changes.
When a new contact is added in GHL, Overloop can automatically generate a starter task to kick off follow-up.
Sync notes from GHL to Overloop so the contact timeline reflects all activity.
Expose contacts and tasks to a BI tool via Overloop for richer reporting.
Create credentials in Overloop and authorize access to the GHL Contacts API.
Enable required endpoints and map fields between GHL and Overloop to ensure correct data sync.
Run test syncs for contacts, tasks, and notes; review logs and confirm data integrity before going live.
The Contacts API provides read-only access with the scope shown. You can fetch details for contacts, their tasks, notes, and related data. To write or modify data, ensure write permissions are granted and use the appropriate endpoints. Overloop surfaces these capabilities in a no-code-friendly interface.
No coding is required for most workflows. The Overloop App Connector provides intuitive triggers and actions with field-mapping presets. You can customize behavior without writing code.
Authentication is handled via OAuth tokens or API keys. Store credentials securely in Overloop, rotate regularly, and use scoped access to limit risk.
Commonly used endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId to retrieve a contact and GET /contacts/ to list contacts. For tasks, use GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks and POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks as needed.
With the current scope of readonly access, you cannot write data back to GHL. If write access is required, request updated credentials and scope from your administrator and ensure endpoints support write operations.
Map core fields such as name, email, phone, and custom fields between GHL and Overloop via the connector’s field-mapping settings. Validate mappings with sample records.
You can monitor sync status from Overloop’s dashboard, including last run times, successes, and errors. Alerts can be configured to notify you when issues occur.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
