No, you can connect Popl to the Contacts API without custom code using the available connectors and builders. The setup is guided and code-free. You can start by generating an API key and configuring your endpoints in the dashboard. If you ever need advanced customization, you can extend with minimal scripting.
For most Popl workflows, today’s essential endpoints are GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes. Additional endpoints like tasks and notes creation enable full workflow automation.
