Authorize APPNAME to access Contacts data with the scope: contacts.readonly. Use OAuth 2.0 to securely obtain access and refresh tokens.
Configure APPNAME to store tokens securely and refresh them automatically, following best-practice security guidelines.

Automate data flow between APPNAME and GHL to improve contact management.
Eliminate manual data entry by syncing tasks, notes, and contacts.
Access real-time updates and trigger workflows in APPNAME based on GHL events.
Overview of essential elements and processes used when connecting GHL Contacts API to APPNAME.
A specific URL path and HTTP method that performs an action on a resource.
A standard protocol for authorizing access to resources without sharing credentials.
A person or entity stored in GHL with contact details and related data.

Obtain OAuth tokens with the Contacts API scope and store securely.
Set up reads for contacts, tasks, notes, and tags; configure triggers.
Create actions and automations in APPNAME that respond to GHL data.
The GHL Contacts API is a RESTful interface that lets apps read, create, update, and delete contact-related resources. Use the contacts.readonly scope to securely fetch data and power validation workflows. For broader actions, request additional scopes and permissions from your GHL admin.
No-code options exist through the APPNAME App Connector and prebuilt actions. You can connect and configure triggers without writing code, then add code steps if needed.
Essential validation endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch a contact and verify data. Phone validation can be implemented via dedicated endpoints within the GHL Contacts API ecosystem. Use the endpoints listed above to assemble a validation flow.
Use OAuth 2.0 with PKCE, store tokens securely, rotate credentials regularly, and use refresh tokens to maintain access without re-authenticating.
Yes. Writing back to GHL is possible with endpoints like POST, PUT, or DELETE, provided you have the required permissions (for example, contacts.write) and the appropriate scope.
With the contacts.readonly scope, you can retrieve core contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments. Writing operations require additional scopes such as contacts.write.
Endpoint details are in the official API reference and reflected in the ENDPOINTLIST section above; you can also consult the developer docs for deeper guidance.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
