All API requests must be authorized with a valid access token and the correct scope (contacts.readonly). Attach the token as a Bearer value in the Authorization header. Store credentials securely in Tadabase.
In Tadabase, configure a REST data source and pass the API token in the Authorization header for each call. Map the token to a secure field and enable token rotation as needed.
GET /contacts/:contactId — fetch a single contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — fetch tasks for a contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — fetch a specific task; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — fetch notes for a contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — fetch a specific note; GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — fetch appointments for a contact; GET /contacts/ — list all contacts; GET /contacts/business/:businessId — list contacts by business; 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 complete; DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — delete a task; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — add tags to a contact

Methods/Paths: GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
Fields: contactId, taskId, noteId
Trigger: updates in Tadabase trigger a writeback to GHL.
Actions: use PUT /contacts/:contactId to update core fields; POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to add tasks; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags to apply tags.
Methods/Paths: PUT /contacts/:contactId; POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags

No-code setup lets you connect systems in minutes, not days.
Visual data mapping in Tadabase means you control how fields align between the API and your app.
Scalability through reusable templates and prebuilt endpoints simplifies future integrations.
Key elements include API endpoints, authentication, request methods, data mapping, and field synchronization between GHL and Tadabase.
A specific URL you call to access a resource in the GHL API.
The process of proving your identity to the API and obtaining access tokens.
A mechanism for real-time event notifications from the API to your app.
The process of aligning API fields with Tadabase fields so data syncs correctly.
Add a Tadabase button that pulls the latest contacts via GET /contacts/:contactId and creates or updates your Contacts table.
Configure a recurring fetch of /contacts/:contactId/tasks and attach them to the corresponding contact in Tadabase.
Record each API call in a Tadabase log to track changes for compliance and debugging.
Obtain your API key and ensure scope is set to contacts.readonly.
Create a Tadabase REST data source using the Contacts API base URL and attach the Bearer token in the headers; map fields in Tadabase.
Test each endpoint, ensure proper field mapping, and enable automation in your Tadabase app.
The API uses Bearer token authentication. You generate an API key and pass it in the Authorization header. The scope should include at least contacts.readonly for read access. In Tadabase, securely store the token and configure the REST data source to pass it with every request. Rotate credentials as needed and follow best practices for secret management.
To read contacts, use GET /contacts/ to list all contacts or GET /contacts/:contactId for a single contact. For related data, use GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes to pull tasks and notes associated with that contact.
Yes, if your API key has the write scope (contacts.write). If the current token only has readonly, you will need to request elevated permissions. After obtaining write access, use PUT /contacts/:contactId to update contacts, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to add tasks, and POST /contacts/:contactId/tags to apply tags.
No heavy coding is required. Tadabase’s REST data source and built-in mapping handle most of the work. If you encounter complex transformations, you can use simple logic within Tadabase formulas or lightweight scripts.
Map API fields to Tadabase fields within the data source mapping interface. Start with essential fields (name, email, phone) and progressively map related records (tasks, notes). Validate with sample records and adjust data types as needed.
Synchronization frequency depends on your needs. You can set automatic fetch intervals or trigger-based calls. For near real-time updates, poll more frequently or implement webhooks if supported by your plan.
View logs in Tadabase’s data source diagnostics and in your API provider’s dashboard. Enable detailed error messages in the REST source and consider a dedicated error-tracking page in Tadabase for quick troubleshooting.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
