Give Rankr permission to read your GHL Contacts data by configuring the correct OAuth scopes and credentials for the Contacts API.
Rankr uses OAuth 2.0 or an API key from your integration to securely access GHL data and run automated workflows.

This glossary covers essential terms used when integrating the GHL Contacts API with Rankr, including endpoints, triggers, and actions.
A URL path you call to read or modify data in GHL.
An event in GHL that starts an automation in Rankr.
The process of verifying identity to grant access to data.
A callback URL that sends real‑time data from GHL to Rankr.
Create a new contact in Rankr when a contact is added in GHL via GET /contacts/:contactId.
Route tasks to teammates in Rankr when a task is created or updated in GHL.
Use notes to trigger personalized campaigns in Rankr and update contact history automatically.
Obtain OAuth credentials for both sides and test a read of GET /contacts/:contactId.
Define data fields and connect endpoints such as GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/.
Create a sample Zap in Zapier that triggers on contact updates and creates tasks in Rankr.
The GHL Contacts API exposes endpoints to read and manage contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments. When connected to Rankr, you can pull contact details, monitor tasks, and trigger Rankr automations based on GHL events. This integration enables seamless data flow between GHL and Rankr without manual exports. It is designed to be user-friendly and scale with your automation needs.
No code is required for basic setups. You can connect GHL to Rankr using prebuilt Zapier workflows or Rankr connectors, configure authentication once, and map fields between systems. For advanced scenarios, you may customize webhooks or use conditional triggers, but many teams start with simple triggers like contact creation or task updates.
Essential endpoints typically include GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch a contact, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks for related tasks, and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes for notes. Additional endpoints such as appointments and the general GET /contacts/ help broaden capabilities. You can start with these core endpoints and expand as needed.
Data security is maintained via OAuth authentication, scoped access, and encrypted transmission. Rankr and GHL support token rotation and access limitations so only required data is readable or writable. Always follow your organization’s security policies when configuring credentials.
Yes. Triggers can be set for events like contact updates, new notes, or newly created tasks, which then initiate Rankr workflows automatically. Real‑time syncing reduces manual updates and helps keep data consistent across platforms.
Popular use cases include onboarding new contacts, updating task statuses across teams, logging activity, and driving marketing campaigns from contact notes. It’s also useful for keeping CRM data synchronized with Rankr automations and analytics.
The technical documentation for the GHL Contacts API and Rankr integration is available in the Rankr developer hub and the GHL API reference. You can also access ready‑to‑use Zapier templates and example workflows to accelerate setup.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
