To use the Contacts API, generate an OAuth token or API key for the GHL account with the required contacts.readonly scope. Store credentials securely and rotate them as needed.
Repsly’s integration uses its own auth flow to securely pass the GHL token to the Contacts API. Configure the connector to use your GHL credentials and allow read access to contacts data.
Key endpoints available in this integration include reading and managing contacts, their tasks, notes, and appointments. Use GET for retrieval, POST for creation, PUT for updates, and DELETE where supported. See below for the primary endpoints used in the Repsly flow.
Trigger: a contact is created or updated in Repsly and the connector fetches the record via GET /contacts/:contactId to keep GHL updated.
Actions: retrieve contact details and map core fields (contactId, name, email, phone) into the GHL Contacts API.
GET /contacts/:contactId
contactId, name, email, phone
Trigger: updates to tasks, notes, or appointments in Repsly are pulled into GHL via endpoints for tasks and notes (GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments).
Actions: synchronize tasks, notes, and appointments so activity history is available in GHL.
GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
taskId, status, dueDate, noteId, content
Trigger: create, update, or delete contact records in Repsly and propagate changes to the GHL Contacts API.
Actions: create new contacts (POST /contacts/), update (PUT /contacts/:contactId), delete (DELETE /contacts/:contactId), and coordinate related tasks and notes.
POST /contacts/
contactId, name, email, phone, businessId
Unified contact records across both systems reduce duplicate data and manual entry.
Automations and triggers enable real-time syncing without writing code.
Faster onboarding and consistent data lead to better CRM insights.
This glossary explains key terms used in this guide: endpoints, triggers, actions, and key fields to help you implement the integration with confidence.
An interface that allows systems to talk to each other. The GHL Contacts API exposes access to Repsly contact data.
A specific URL path that performs an action in the API, e.g., GET /contacts/:contactId.
A callback mechanism that delivers real-time updates when data changes, useful for keeping Repsly and GHL in sync.
The process of verifying identity to access the API, typically via OAuth tokens or API keys.
Automatically create Repsly contact records when a new Lead is added in GHL using POST /contacts/ and map core fields.
Pull tasks, notes, and appointments to build a complete activity timeline in Repsly and display it in GHL.
Trigger follow-ups in Repsly based on key events in GHL to keep opportunities warm.
Obtain a GHL token with the contacts.readonly scope and securely store it; configure Repsly to use this token.
Select endpoints 1-17 as needed and map fields between Repsly and the GHL Contacts API.
Run test calls, verify data integrity, and set up error handling and alerts for ongoing reliability.
No heavy coding is required thanks to no-code connectors and pre-built templates. The integration can be configured via a visual workflow and simple field mappings. If you prefer, you can add small scripts for custom transformations.
You need a GHL API token with the contacts.readonly scope to read contact data. Repsly will use this token to call the API securely. Store credentials in a secure vault and rotate them periodically.
For a basic sync start with GET /contacts/:contactId and follow with related endpoints like GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, /notes, and /appointments. This provides a complete view of contact activity.
Yes. Write operations exist (POST, PUT, DELETE) and require the appropriate scope (contacts.write). Ensure you have consent and handle permissions carefully.
Use a sandbox or test environment to run requests, validate responses, and verify field mappings. Monitor logs for errors and set up alerts for failures.
If data is missing, re-check endpoint permissions and field mappings. Ensure the token has the required scope and the Repsly account is correctly linked to the GHL integration.
Refer to the integration changelog and endpoint documentation for updates. Subscribe to release notes and test new features in a staging environment before enabling them live.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
