Use OAuth 2.0 or an API key to authorize Trumpet to access your Contacts data. Ensure the app requests the contacts.readonly scope and store tokens securely.
Trumpet uses standard OAuth 2.0 flow or API tokens to authenticate. After granting permission, tokens refresh automatically to maintain a seamless connection.
GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id, GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments, GET /contacts/, GET /contacts/business/:businessId, POST /contacts/, PUT /contacts/:contactId, DELETE /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed, DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId, POST /contacts/:contactId/tags
Trigger: when a user opens or requests a contact record in Trumpet.
Actions: fetch contact data, pull related tasks and notes, and attach to Trumpet records.
GET /contacts/:contactId
primary key: contactId; optional: businessId
Trigger: on-demand task retrieval or task updates.
Actions: retrieve tasks, filter by status, return to Trumpet.
GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
contactId, taskId
Trigger: task status changes in Trumpet or on update in GHL.
Actions: update task status, mark complete, sync back to Trumpet.
PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
contactId, taskId
Fast setup with no-code automations in Zapier, reducing development time.
Real-time data synchronization between Trumpet and Contacts API without writing code.
Scalable workflows for multi-user teams with secure access controls.
Elements include endpoints, authentication, triggers, actions, and data mapping; processes cover obtaining credentials, connecting, and building automations.
Application Programming Interface: a set of endpoints that let applications talk to each other and exchange data.
OAuth 2.0 is a standard authorization framework that lets apps access data on behalf of users with tokens that expire.
A specific URL and method pair (like GET /contacts/:contactId) that exposes a piece of functionality in an API.
A callback mechanism that allows an API to send real-time data to another service when an event occurs.
Set up a Zapier workflow that creates a Trumpet contact whenever a new contact is added in the GHL Contacts API, ensuring seamless onboarding.
Automatically pull in tasks for a contact and reflect status in Trumpet for complete visibility across teams.
Capture notes from Trumpet activity and store them as CRM notes via the API for a complete history.
Obtain OAuth 2.0 credentials or API key for Trumpet to access the GHL Contacts API.
Select endpoints such as GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and POST /contacts/ to enable data flow.
Create Zapier Zaps to automate data sync, task updates, and note creation between Trumpet and the Contacts API.
Trumpet supports OAuth 2.0 and API keys. For most use cases, OAuth 2.0 provides a secure, token-based flow that avoids embedding passwords in workflows. Use the Zapier App Connector to authorize Trumpet to access your Contacts API data and grant the minimum scope required, such as contacts.readonly. Keep tokens secure and rotate credentials periodically. Tip: Store credentials in a secret manager and review permissions regularly.
The integration exposes endpoints for reading contacts, their tasks, notes, and appointments, as well as creating and updating records as permitted by scope. You can view and test endpoints in the API docs and configure Zapier steps to map fields between Trumpet and the Contacts API. Note: Some endpoints may require elevated permissions; ensure your app scope aligns with the actions you intend to perform.
No heavy coding is required for basic data retrieval and automations; Zapier handles the orchestration using triggers and actions. For advanced logic, you can add simple transformations or filters within Zapier steps. If you need custom server-side logic, consider lightweight scripting or webhooks. Overall, most users can implement typical flows with no-code configuration.
Yes. You can update contact data via PUT or POST endpoints if your scope includes write access. For example, PUT /contacts/:contactId can update contact fields, and POST /contacts/ can create new records. Validate payloads and respect existing data schemas. Always test changes in a safe environment before production.
Rate limits vary by plan and endpoint. If you hit quotas, requests may be throttled or return 429 responses. To mitigate, space out calls, batch updates where possible, and implement retries with exponential backoff in your automations.
OAuth tokens expire and require refreshing. Zapier can refresh tokens automatically if supported by the app configuration. For API keys, rotate keys periodically and update the connected apps. Monitor token lifecycles to prevent interruptions.
API keys or OAuth credentials are generated in the GHL developer portal or your app settings. For OAuth, create an app to receive client ID and client secret; for API keys, generate and copy the key from your Trumpet app settings. Store credentials securely and grant only necessary permissions.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
