Authenticate requests with OAuth2 or API keys, and use the requested scopes for read access to contacts.
Grant QuestionScout access to your Contacts API data with secure OAuth or token-based methods, and rotate credentials regularly.

Connect the app in QuestionScout and run a test sync.
The Contacts API lets you read and write contact data, including endpoints to fetch contacts, tasks, notes, and more. It provides the data you need to drive QuestionScout automations. Used together, they enable seamless, two-way synchronization and richer workflows without manual data entry.
Authenticate using OAuth2 and API keys. Use the client credentials from GHL to authorize requests in QuestionScout. Store tokens securely, rotate credentials regularly, and apply proper scopes to restrict access to contacts only.
Endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, and GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments. They let you pull a complete view of a contact. Combine these endpoints to build dashboards, task lists, and notes repositories inside QuestionScout.
Yes. Use POST /contacts/ to create a contact, or PUT /contacts/:contactId to update an existing one. After creation, you can immediately start syncing tasks, notes, and tags via the related endpoints.
Task and note sync can be automated with webhooks or scheduled polling in QuestionScout. Ensure your scopes include contacts.readonly or higher as needed, and design retries for transient failures.
API rate limits depend on your GHL plan. Start with the default limits and scale up as your usage grows. Implement exponential backoff, caching, and batch requests where possible to stay within quotas.
You can tag contacts via POST /contacts/:contactId/tags, and manage tags using related endpoints. Tag management enables dynamic segmentation and targeted workflows in QuestionScout.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
