How to connect the Contacts API with Spiro

This guide explains how to connect Spiro to the Contacts API, enabling read only access to contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments via the GHL API. Use the App Connector to authorize, map fields, and start automating CRM workflows without coding.

Authorize Contacts API access

Grant the necessary scope and permissions so Spiro can read contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments from your GHL account. Ensure the account has access to the Contacts API and that the scope matches read only requirements when appropriate.

Authorize Spiro app connection

In the Spiro App Connector, sign in and authorize access to your GHL account. Confirm the OAuth scopes and consent to enable data exchange between Spiro and the Contacts API.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need coding experience to set this up?

No coding is required. The Spiro App Connector guides you through OAuth and endpoint mapping. You can set up common flows with point-and-click configuration. If you are comfortable with API concepts, you can tailor triggers and actions to fit your workflow. For most teams, the visual builder within Spiro provides all the necessary controls to connect to the Contacts API without writing code.

You can read and write data using endpoints such as GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, POST /contacts/, PUT /contacts/:contactId, and DELETE /contacts/:contactId. Additional endpoints cover notes, appointments, and task management which lets you create, update, and remove records as needed. Always map key fields to ensure data integrity across Spiro and your CRM during synchronization.

Yes. The App Connector supports configuring triggers (for example on contact view or task change) and actions (such as creating tasks or notes in Spiro). You can customize these to reflect your exact CRM workflow and outreach processes. If you need advanced logic, you can combine multiple triggers and actions to create robust, automated sequences.

API calls are subject to the rate limits set by the GHL API. In practice, typical integration flows using read-heavy operations like GET /contacts/:contactId or GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks stay well within limits for standard use cases. If you expect high-throughput, consider batching requests and implementing exponential backoff in your error handling strategy.

To test connections, use the Spiro App Connector’s test or sandbox mode to run sample requests against the endpoints. Verify that data maps correctly between Spiro and the Contacts API and review logs for any mapping errors. Once tests pass, enable live mode and monitor initial activity closely for any edge cases.

OAuth is used to authorize Spiro to access your GHL account. You will be prompted to grant scoped permissions during the authorization flow. API keys may be used in some scenarios, but OAuth is the preferred method for secure integration. Store tokens securely and refresh as required by the provider.
