To access the Contacts API from TextP2P, configure an API key or OAuth token and set the scope to contacts.readonly. Store credentials securely and rotate them regularly.
TextP2P authenticates to GHL using credentials entered in the connector. Provide the client ID and secret, request a token, and grant the necessary scope for contacts access.
GET /contacts/:contactId to read a contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to read tasks; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId to read a specific task; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes to read notes; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id to read a note; GET /contacts/ to list contacts; GET /contacts/business/:businessId to list by business; POST /contacts/ to create a contact; PUT /contacts/:contactId to update a contact; DELETE /contacts/:contactId to delete a contact; POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to create a task; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId to update a task; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed to mark a task complete; DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId to delete a task; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags to add tags.
Trigger: Retrieve a contact and its related tasks when a contact is selected in TextP2P.
Actions: GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch the contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to fetch tasks.
GET /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: contactId, firstName, lastName, email, phone
Trigger: Retrieve a list of contacts to seed workflows in TextP2P.
Actions: GET /contacts/ to fetch all contacts; apply pagination if needed.
GET /contacts/
Fields: contactId, name, email, status
Trigger: Update a contact’s data from TextP2P.
Actions: PUT /contacts/:contactId to update; also you can update nested tasks if needed.
PUT /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, notes
Automations run without writing code, syncing contact data in real time.
Save time with ready-made actions and triggers for business workflows.
Improve data accuracy and consistency across apps.
This glossary defines terms used in this integration guide, including API, Endpoint, Authentication, and OAuth2.
An interface that allows TextP2P to access data in the GHL Contacts API.
The process of verifying identity to obtain access to an API.
A specific URL path in the API used to perform an action.
An authorization framework that enables secure API access without sharing credentials.
Trigger a welcome sequence when a new contact is created in GHL and push updates to TextP2P.
Automatically create follow-up tasks in TextP2P when contact data changes in GHL.
Generate onboarding tasks in Contacts API as part of a new client workflow.
In GHL, generate API credentials and paste them into TextP2P connectors.
Map endpoints, set scopes (contacts.readonly), and test queries in TextP2P.
Run end-to-end tests, verify responses, monitor logs, and enable monitoring.
TextP2P authenticates to the GHL Contacts API using either an API key or an OAuth token. In the TextP2P connector, supply the client ID, client secret, and set the scope to contacts.readonly to limit access. Keep credentials secure, rotate keys regularly, and enable least-privilege access. If possible, use IP restrictions and logging to monitor usage.
The integration commonly uses endpoints like GET /contacts/:contactId and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to fetch data. For listing and updating, POST /contacts/ and PUT /contacts/:contactId are used along with additional endpoints for notes and tags.
To test, run a sample read to fetch a contact, verify the response structure, and validate error handling. Use sandbox or test data, check that triggers fire, and review logs in TextP2P and the GHL API.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan. Be mindful of throttling and implement exponential backoff. If you hit limits, batch requests and cache results where appropriate.
Yes, you can update a contact using PUT /contacts/:contactId. Include the fields to update in the request body. Ensure the contactId is present and that you have the necessary scope.
No-code automations are built through TextP2P’s triggers and actions; you don’t write code. You can construct workflows like onboarding or follow-ups using the available endpoints.
API credentials are issued from the GHL developer portal. Copy them to the TextP2P connector. Store securely; rotate and audit usage.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
