Use your GHL API credentials to securely authenticate requests to the Contacts API; include the access token in the Authorization header for every call.
Tokko Broker requires a connected app setup; configure OAuth credentials and scopes so Zapier can access contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments.

The GHL Contacts API exposes endpoints for reading and updating contact data. It enables you to pull contact records, tasks, notes, and appointments. This guide focuses on using those endpoints from Tokko Broker to streamline CRM workflows. You can mix and match read and write operations to suit your automation needs.
Requests should be authenticated using an OAuth access token or API key as per your GHL setup. Include the token in the Authorization header for each call and refresh credentials as needed. For app access, Tokko Broker also uses its own OAuth credentials to authorize activity on your behalf.
Main endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, POST /contacts/, PUT /contacts/:contactId, and related notes and appointments endpoints. The ENDPOINTLIST section provides a full list for reference.
Yes. You can create new contacts in GHL from Tokko Broker using POST /contacts/ and update existing ones with PUT /contacts/:contactId. Tasks and notes can be created or linked during the same flow.
Notes and tasks can be synced by mapping Tokko Broker fields to GHL notes and tasks endpoints. Use triggers to pull updates and actions to push changes when a record is updated in either system.
Rate limits apply depending on your GHL plan and API tier. Plan for burst traffic, implement exponential backoff, and rely on webhooks or polling as appropriate.
The typical payloads use JSON. Tokko Broker expects JSON bodies for create and update requests, while responses are JSON as well. Validate schemas with your integration tests.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
