Use OAuth 2.0 or API keys as provided by GHL. Ensure the scope includes contacts.readonly for read access or contacts.write for write operations. Store tokens securely and rotate credentials regularly.
SubcontractorHub authenticates with the APPNAME using client credentials. Treat tokens like secrets, implement refresh logic, and log authentication events for auditing.

You should request at least read permissions for the Contacts API to view data. If you need to create or update records, you’ll need write permissions for contacts as well. Always follow the principle of least privilege and rotate credentials regularly. In SubcontractorHub, ensure your app role aligns with the permissions granted by GHL. By doing so, you minimize risk while enabling productive data flows between systems.
Yes. The integration supports syncing of contacts, tasks, and notes, plus related endpoints for appointments and tags where configured. You can enable specific endpoints based on your workflow needs and map fields accordingly. This keeps data in both systems aligned without manual entry.
Use OAuth 2.0 for user-approved access and API keys for service-to-service connections. Store tokens securely, implement token refresh, and rotate credentials periodically. Consider using short-lived tokens with a trusted refresh mechanism and monitor for unusual authentication activity.
Rate limits are defined by the GHL API and can vary by endpoint and plan. If you hit limits, implement exponential backoff, batch requests where possible, and prioritize critical data. SubcontractorHub should queue and retry non-urgent syncs to avoid data loss.
Field mapping is typically accomplished via a schema or mapping configuration in SubcontractorHub. Align key identifiers (such as email or phone) and map core fields (name, email, status, due date) to the corresponding fields in GHL. Test mappings with sample records to verify accuracy.
Yes. GHL provides example payloads and schemas in their developer docs. SubcontractorHub can include tailored payload examples for contact, task, and note resources to speed up integration. Review these samples and adapt them to your APPNAME’s data model.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
