Secure access uses API keys or OAuth tokens with the scope: contacts.readonly. Include your client credentials, exchange authorization codes, and refresh tokens as needed to maintain access.
Grant Thankster permission to access your GHL Contacts API data. Ensure correct redirect URIs and scopes are configured in your app settings.

No-code setup lets you connect, map fields, and build automations without writing code.
Automated data sync reduces manual updates and ensures data accuracy across systems.
Scalable workflows with reliable retries, logging, and error handling built into the connector.
Core elements include contacts, tasks, notes, appointments, and tags. Endpoints provide access for reading, creating, updating, and deleting these elements.
A person in your CRM with identifying fields such as name, email, and phone.
An action item linked to a contact, with a title, due date, and status.
A textual remark attached to a contact to capture context or history.
A label used to categorize or segment contacts across workflows.
When a new contact is added, automatically create a Thankster greeting task and send a welcome message.
Tag engaged contacts and route them to personalized Thankster templates.
Use notes to trigger follow-up tasks in Thankster for timely outreach.
Obtain OAuth tokens or an API key and authorize Thankster to access Contacts API data.
Choose endpoints like GET /contacts/:contactId and POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks to support your automations.
Create Thankster automations that react to events and update GHL records accordingly.
The Contacts API supports API keys and OAuth tokens. Use the scope ‘contacts.readonly’ for read-only operations and ensure your app has proper permissions. For production, store credentials securely and rotate keys regularly. When using OAuth, refresh tokens before expiry to maintain uninterrupted access.
For basic syncing, start with GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch contact data and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to pull associated tasks. You can create new contacts with POST /contacts/ and update existing ones with PUT /contacts/:contactId. This forms the foundation of most workflows.
Implement exponential backoff on 5xx errors and respect any rate limits. Log failures with helpful context, map error codes to user-friendly messages, and aim for idempotent operations where possible to avoid duplicates.
Yes. You can create new contacts with POST /contacts/ and update existing records via PUT /contacts/:contactId. Deleting is done with DELETE /contacts/:contactId; consider soft-delete patterns if your app requires audit history.
Notes are read via GET /contacts/:contactId/notes and can be created or updated using the corresponding endpoints. Tags are managed with POST /contacts/:contactId/tags to organize contacts for segmentation and targeted campaigns in Thankster.
Rate limits vary by plan and endpoint. If you approach limits, back off and space requests. Batch operations when possible and monitor usage with your API dashboard to stay within quotas.
Endpoint references, field mappings, and example payloads are documented in your API docs and the connector guide. If you need a tailored data mapping, contact support for a consult or use Zapier to assist with mapping automation.
