To begin, generate an API key in your GHL developer console and grant Parserr read and write access to Contacts data.
In Parserr, create a new GHL connection using the API credentials. Test the connection to verify authentication and permission scope.
GET /contacts/:contactId — Retrieve a single contact by ID GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — List tasks for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Retrieve a specific task GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — List notes for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — Retrieve a note GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — List appointments for a contact GET /contacts/ — List all contacts GET /contacts/business/:businessId — List contacts by business contacts.write — Write permission flag for the API POST /contacts/ — Create a new contact PUT /contacts/:contactId — Update a contact DELETE /contacts/:contactId — Delete a contact POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Create a task for a contact PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Update a task PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — Mark a task complete DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Delete a task POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — Add a tag to a contact
Trigger: new or updated contact data arrives in Parserr. Action: create or update the corresponding contact in GHL using POST /contacts/ or PUT /contacts/:contactId.
Map essential fields like email, firstName, lastName, phone, company, and jobTitle to the GHL contact fields. Optionally create related tasks or notes after the contact is created.
Methods: POST /contacts/ to create, PUT /contacts/:contactId to update, GET /contacts/:contactId to verify.
email, firstName, lastName, phone, company, jobTitle
Trigger: a task is created or updated in Parserr. Action: create or update a matching GHL task via POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks or PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId.
Map task fields like title, dueDate, status, and notes to the GHL task. Link tasks to the correct contact using contactId.
Methods: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
contactId, taskId, title, status
Trigger: a note is added or updated in Parserr. Action: create or update a GHL note via POST /contacts/:contactId/notes.
Map note content to the GHL note fields and attach it to the appropriate contact using contactId.
Methods: POST /contacts/:contactId/notes, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id
contactId, id, content
Faster data sync between Parserr and GHL with automated updates and reduced manual data entry.
Centralized contact data across Parserr and GHL for consistent records and better workflows.
Leverage existing GHL endpoints to manage contacts, tasks, and notes without writing code.
A quick glossary of elements and processes used in this integration between Parserr and GHL using the Contacts API.
The REST endpoints exposed by the GHL platform used to manage contacts, tasks, notes, and more.
Parserr, the app used to extract data and feed it into GHL via the Contacts API.
The API subset used to read and write contact data in GHL, including endpoints for contacts, tasks, and notes.
Specific REST paths defined for interacting with contacts, tasks, notes, and associated resources.
Whenever Parserr extracts a new contact, automatically create or update the contact in GHL to keep records current.
When Parserr detects a task update, push the change to GHL to reflect status and due dates in real time.
Attach Parserr note content to the corresponding GHL contact and trigger follow up actions based on note keywords.
In GHL, generate an API key with read and write access to Contacts. Save the key securely.
In Parserr, add a new GHL connection using the API credentials and map fields between systems.
Run a test sync for contacts, tasks, and notes. Adjust field mappings as needed and enable automations.
You authenticate using an API key issued by GHL with read and write access to Contacts. Keep your key secure and rotate periodically. Parserr uses token-based authentication to access the GHL endpoints you grant. If you need OAuth, follow the GHL developer guide for token exchange and scopes. Next, configure the connection in Parserr to test that the API key is valid and the scopes grant the necessary permissions for contacts, tasks, and notes.
Key endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, POST /contacts/, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and POST /contacts/:contactId/notes. These endpoints let Parserr read and write core data for each contact, along with related tasks and notes. Endpoint usage will depend on which data you want to sync.
Yes. When Parserr processes new contact data, you can create a corresponding contact in GHL using POST /contacts/. You can also update existing records with PUT /contacts/:contactId. This enables automatic population of GHL with Parserr data as it’s parsed.
Rate limits vary by plan and endpoint. Plan for occasional retries and batch updates where possible. If you hit a limit, stagger requests or queue them in Parserr to avoid failures.
Both webhook and polling approaches can be used. Webhooks provide real-time updates when Parserr or GHL data changes, while polling lets you schedule regular refreshes. Choose the approach that fits your workflow and rate limits.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
