Requests to the Contacts API require a valid OAuth token with the scope set to readonly (scope: contacts.readonly) for read operations. For write operations you will need appropriate write scopes and user consent.
VideoPeel authenticates with the GHL API using your configured OAuth credentials from the VideoPeel app. Ensure you have a secure connection and refresh tokens when needed.

The GHL Contacts API provides programmatic access to your CRM data, including contacts, notes, tasks, and appointments. Authentication is typically done with OAuth tokens scoped to read data (e.g., contacts.readonly) or with elevated scopes for write operations. Ensure you grant the necessary permissions and securely store tokens.
VideoPeel connects to GHL using OAuth credentials configured in the VideoPeel app. You will need client id, client secret, and redirect URIs as part of the OAuth flow. Keep credentials secure and rotate them periodically.
Yes. You can trigger workflows when a contact is created, updated, or when related tasks or notes change. Configure the appropriate triggers in VideoPeel to respond to these events.
The best endpoint to fetch contact details is GET /contacts/:contactId. Use this alongside related endpoints for tasks, notes, and appointments to assemble a full picture of the contact.
Yes. You can create, update, and fetch tasks and notes using the provided endpoints. This enables the automation of follow-ups, reminders, and context sharing across apps via VideoPeel.
GHL imposes API rate limits. Plan requests accordingly and use batching where possible. If you hit limits, implement exponential backoff and retry logic in your automations.
Test your connection in VideoPeel by running a dry run of the workflow, validate responses, and monitor logs. Start with a small dataset and expand once you confirm correct data flow.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
