Authenticate requests using OAuth 2.0. After you obtain client credentials, authorize requests with a token that grants scope: contacts.readonly.
SocialPilot acts as the client in the OAuth flow. You’ll authorize it to access your GHL Contacts data and grant the needed scope during setup.
– GET /contacts/:contactId — fetch a single contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — list tasks for a contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — retrieve a specific task – GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — list notes for a contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — fetch a specific note – GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — list appointments – GET /contacts/ — list all contacts – GET /contacts/business/:businessId — list contacts by business – API Endpoint9: contacts.write — permission to write contacts – POST /contacts/ — create a contact – PUT /contacts/:contactId — update a contact – DELETE /contacts/:contactId — delete a contact – POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — create a task for a contact – PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — update a task – PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — mark a task completed – DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — delete a task – POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — assign tags to a contact

Automate data flows without writing a line of code using visual workflow tools
Eliminate manual data entry and keep contacts, tasks, and notes in sync
Speed up campaigns with up-to-date contact context for outreach
Understand the core concepts, endpoints, and processes used when integrating the GHL Contacts API with SocialPilot
A specific URL path and HTTP verb used to perform actions or fetch data from an API.
A secure authorization framework that lets SocialPilot access GHL data on your behalf without exposing passwords.
A callback URL the API calls when a specified event occurs, enabling real-time updates.
The set of permissions granted during OAuth to access specific resources, e.g., contacts.readonly.
When a new or updated contact enters the CRM, automatically qualify and route it into SocialPilot campaigns for timely outreach.
Keep notes in sync across both systems to provide richer context for outreach and follow-ups.
Create cross-system tasks that trigger campaigns and reminders in SocialPilot based on GHL task changes.
In the GHL developer portal, create a new app, note your client ID/secret, and configure the OAuth flow for SocialPilot.
Choose the endpoints you’ll use and map fields like name, email, notes, and tasks to SocialPilot fields.
Test data flows, verify accuracy, and rollout with monitoring and alerts.
First, the integration supports core read operations for contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments as listed in the endpoint list. You can also create, update, and delete contacts and tasks where allowed by the scope.\nSecond, you can design workflows that pull data from GHL into SocialPilot to power outreach, reporting, and automation.
To authenticate, start in the GHL developer portal to create credentials, then in SocialPilot authorize the connection, exchanging client ID/secret for an access token. Use the tokens in your API requests with the proper scope.
Yes, you can set up webhooks for notes and tasks so updates propagate in near real-time. Real-time sync depends on your plan and rate limits.
The required scope is contacts.readonly for read operations. If you need write operations, you may require additional scopes such as contacts.write or related permissions.
No-code setup is available via the Zapier App Connector, enabling you to connect GHL Contacts API to SocialPilot without custom code. You can build triggers and actions in a visual workflow.
Map fields between GHL and SocialPilot in your workflow, aligning name, email, notes, and tasks to corresponding fields in SocialPilot. Test mappings to ensure data integrity.
Rate limits vary by endpoint. Refer to API docs for current limits. Handle errors gracefully with retries and exponential backoff; log error details for debugging.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
