Authenticate using OAuth tokens or API keys with the Contacts API scope (contacts.readonly). Store credentials securely and rotate them regularly to keep access tight and compliant.
Connect Rentometer to the GHL Contacts API by exchanging credentials, configuring a connected app, and granting the requested scope. Ensure permissions match the operations you plan to perform (read, write, delete where allowed).

Automate contact creation and updates without writing code.
Keep tasks, notes, and appointments synchronized in real time between Rentometer and GHL.
Shorten setup time with built-in endpoints, triggers, and actions.
This guide uses endpoints, triggers, actions, method paths, and key fields to describe how the Rentometer connection to the Contacts API in GHL works.
The GHL API is the external interface used to read, create, update, or delete data in GHL from external apps.
A specific URL path that performs a defined operation against the API, such as retrieving a contact or adding a task.
An event in the connected app that starts an automation in GHL.
An operation performed by the integration, such as fetch, create, update, or delete.
Automatically create or update Contacts in GHL when Rentometer provides new contact details to keep the CRM current.
Link Rentometer tasks to GHL tasks so teams stay aligned on rent-related actions and deadlines.
Set up notifications for due or updated rent tasks to prevent missed actions.
Obtain OAuth credentials for the GHL API and grant the required scope.
Enter and test endpoint paths for contacts, notes, tasks, and appointments.
Run validations and deploy automations to production in Rentometer.
The GHL Contacts API lets you read and manage contact data from external apps. It enables you to fetch contact details, pull related tasks, notes, and appointments, and perform write operations where permitted. This capability is ideal for syncing Rentometer data into your CRM workflow without manual entry. Use scoped credentials to adhere to the principle of least privilege. For consistent results, configure a dedicated connected app, request the appropriate scope (such as contacts.readonly), and implement token rotation and secure storage.
The integration exposes a comprehensive set of endpoints, including fetching contacts, their tasks, notes, and appointments, plus creating or updating records via write endpoints. Review each endpoint’s method and path to plan your automation flow. Always test in a sandbox before deploying to production.
Authentication typically involves OAuth credentials or API keys tied to a GHL app. You will grant the necessary scope (e.g., contacts.readonly) and exchange tokens securely. Rotate credentials regularly and monitor access to prevent leakage.
Yes. Depending on your permissions, you can create, update, and delete contacts and related resources. Ensure your app has the required write permissions and implement robust error handling and audit trails to avoid data loss.
Use a sandbox environment or test endpoints to validate flows. Mock data and test records to verify triggers, actions, and field mappings before enabling live automation in Rentometer.
There may be rate limits and quotas; these depend on your GHL plan and API keys. Implement exponential backoff, retry logic, and caching where appropriate to stay within limits.
If you’re stuck, consult the developer docs for the GHL API and reach out to support channels for Rentometer integration guidance. Community forums and sample workflows can also help you troubleshoot common patterns.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
