Authenticate requests to the Contacts API using the approved method (OAuth 2.0 or API key) and ensure the access scope includes contacts.readonly to read data safely.
Slybroadcast uses your OAuth credentials to securely access the Contacts API on your behalf, with least-privilege permissions.
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 when a contact is updated in Contacts API to sync tasks in Slybroadcast.
Actions: pull contact data; push to Slybroadcast; create/update campaigns; update task status.
GET /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: id, name, email, phone, tasks
Trigger when a lead qualifies in Slybroadcast to create a follow-up task in Contacts API.
Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks; set due date; assign owner.
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Key fields: contactId, taskId, title, dueDate, status
Trigger when a task is completed in Contacts API to trigger a follow-up in Slybroadcast campaigns.
Actions: PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed; trigger webhook to Slybroadcast.
PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed
Key fields: taskId, status
Automate contact updates without writing code, saving time and reducing manual data entry.
Instant workflow orchestration: trigger campaigns or alerts as data changes occur.
Centralized data view: synchronize contacts, notes, tasks, and appointments in one place.
Understand core elements and processes that power the GHL Contacts API integration with Slybroadcast, including how data moves, how endpoints are used, and how automation works.
A contact is an individual stored in the Contacts API with identifying fields such as id, name, email, and phone.
A task represents an action linked to a contact, such as a follow-up call or note creation.
A note is an internal comment or detail recorded for a contact.
A tag is a label assigned to a contact to help categorize and filter records.
Use the Contacts API to fetch changes and push updates to Slybroadcast campaigns in real time.
Link tasks created in Contacts API to corresponding automation in Slybroadcast for seamless follow-ups.
Trigger Slybroadcast sequences when contact events occur in the API, such as new contact or updated task.
Register your app and obtain an API key or OAuth credentials to authenticate requests to the Contacts API.
Set the required scopes (e.g., contacts.readonly) and map endpoints to Slybroadcast actions.
Run end-to-end tests, verify data flow, and enable production integration between Contacts API and Slybroadcast.
To connect GHL Contacts API with Slybroadcast, you’ll authenticate using OAuth 2.0 or an API key, depending on the setup. Ensure the access scope includes read permissions for contacts. Use the provided client credentials to authorize requests.
Key endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks for retrieving contact data and tasks. You can also fetch notes, appointments, and the contact list with the endpoints listed in the Endpoint Overview. Always respect the defined scope and permissions for each call. Refer to the official API documentation for exact parameter requirements and response schemas.
No coding is required for basic setups using no-code automation tools and builders. However, advanced use cases may require custom scripts or middleware to map fields and handle complex workflows.
Implement OAuth scopes with least privilege and use secure storage for tokens. Enforce rate limits, monitor access logs, and ensure data is transmitted over HTTPS to protect sensitive contact information.
Yes. Configure triggers based on contact events (new contact, updated task) to automatically start Slybroadcast campaigns, sequences, or reminders without manual steps. Test triggers thoroughly in a sandbox environment before going live.
API rate limits depend on your plan and endpoint usage. Plan for bursts by paging results and implementing exponential backoff to avoid throttling. Monitor quota usage via the GHL dashboard.
API documentation is available in the GHL developer portal, along with sandbox environments and sample integrations. For support, contact the developer support team or your account manager.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
