Authenticate requests using your GHL API credentials. Use a token scoped to contacts.readonly for viewing data or contacts.write for making changes.
Connect the Zapier App Connector to your GHL account using OAuth or API key. Store credentials securely and rotate tokens as required.

A concise glossary covering endpoints, authentication, and data mapping for the GHL Contacts API and the Zapier App Connector.
A specific URL that performs an action or returns data when requested by a client.
Verification of identity and permission to access resources, typically via tokens or keys.
Standards for securely granting access to APIs, often used to obtain tokens with scoped permissions.
A mechanism for one system to notify another when an event occurs.
Automatically route new contacts to the right owner based on territory, industry, or tags.
Schedule recurring tasks that pull contact activity and score health trends for proactive outreach.
Set up end-to-end data flow with versioned endpoints and change logs for compliance.
Authorize your GHL account and APPNAME connection, granting the necessary scopes for read and write access.
Choose events to monitor and corresponding actions in the Contacts API via APPNAME.
Run tests and deploy your automation to start syncing data between GHL and APPNAME.
No coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a visual workflow builder to connect GHL Contacts API endpoints with APPNAME triggers and actions. Use built-in templates to accelerate setup. For advanced logic, you can add conditional paths and filters without writing code.
You can access contact records, notes, tasks, appointments, and tag management. Permissions depend on your scope (read vs write). Always follow security best practices.
Authentication uses OAuth or API keys. The connector safely stores credentials and rotates tokens to maintain a secure connection.
Yes. Map fields like email, phone, name, and custom fields to ensure data aligns between GHL and APPNAME.
Use test or sandbox environments in both systems to verify triggers, actions, and data mapping before going live.
Common endpoints for syncing data include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, POST /contacts/ for creation, and GET /contacts/ to list. Use filters and pagination to refine results.
Endpoint references and docs are available in the GHL API documentation and the APPNAME developer portal.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
