Authenticate your GHL integration with Recruit CRM using secure credentials, ensuring access to all endpoints within the Contacts API scope.
Grant Recruit CRM the necessary permissions to access your GHL data, including the Contacts API scope and read/write capabilities as needed.
– 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; – contacts.write; – 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 Recruit CRM, which updates the corresponding contact in the GHL Contacts API.
Actions: create or update the contact in the Contacts API, map key fields (name, email, phone), and keep records in sync.
Methods: PUT /contacts/:contactId to update, POST /contacts/ to create a contact, and GET /contacts/:contactId for retrieval.
Key fields: contactId, email, name, phone
Trigger: task events in Recruit CRM propagate to the Contacts API.
Actions: create or update tasks via POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks and PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId.
Methods: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId.
Key fields: taskId, status, dueDate
Trigger: notes or appointments updated in Recruit CRM propagate to the GHL Contacts API.
Methods: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments.
Key fields: noteId, appointmentId, date
Rapid setup with drag-and-drop workflows; no coding required.
Pre-built triggers and actions standardize data flow across systems.
Real-time sync reduces manual updates and data discrepancies.
Key elements include API endpoints, authentication, rate limits, webhooks, and data mapping processes used to connect Recruit CRM with the GHL Contacts API.
A specific URL and HTTP method used to perform an action against a service.
The process of proving identity and granting access to resources within the integration.
A real-time event notification sent to a configured endpoint when data changes.
A single data item such as a contact, task, note, or appointment.
Merge contact records to maintain a single source of truth across Recruit CRM and the GHL Contacts API.
Automatically generate follow-up tasks in Recruit CRM when milestones or events occur in the Contacts API.
Attach Recruit CRM notes to the corresponding GHL contact history for a complete activity trail.
Create an API key or OAuth credential in Recruit CRM and grant the Contacts API scope.
Map Recruit CRM fields to Contacts API fields (name, email, phone, etc.).
Test data flow in a sandbox, validate mappings, then enable live syncing.
The Contacts API is the GHL service that lets you manage contacts, notes, tasks, and appointments. By connecting Recruit CRM, you can sync data without writing code. This guide outlines steps to authenticate, map fields, and enable common use cases. Two-way sync ensures both systems stay up to date. The goal is a frictionless data flow between Recruit CRM and the GHL Contacts API.
No traditional coding is required for standard use cases. The integration relies on no-code automations and configured mappings. If your scenario grows complex, you can still extend functionality with custom webhooks and additional field mappings.
Common mappings include name, email, phone, and notes. You can also link tasks and appointments by their IDs to preserve relationships across systems. Always map primary keys (like contactId) to maintain data integrity.
Typically, you can choose real-time webhooks for immediate updates or rely on scheduled syncs. Real-time reduces latency but may require more careful handling of rate limits and conflicts.
For a basic sync, focus on endpoints that manage contacts, notes, tasks, and appointments. Start with GET /contacts/:contactId and POST /contacts/ to establish records, then layer on updates and related entities.
Use a staging or sandbox environment to test data flows, verify field mappings, and monitor error responses. Validate edge cases, such as duplicate records or missing fields, before enabling production syncing.
Authentication details and rate limits are documented in the API reference for the Contacts API. Create credentials in Recruit CRM, grant the necessary scopes, and review quota guidelines to planSafe usage.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
