Authenticate securely using OAuth 2.0 to grant Virtualbadge-io read-only access to your Contacts API data. Request the scope: contacts.readonly, and store tokens securely.
Register Virtualbadge-io as an app in your GHL developer console, obtain a client ID and client secret, configure redirect URIs, and rotate credentials regularly to stay secure.
GET /contacts/:contactId — Retrieve a single contact GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — List tasks for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Get a specific task GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — List notes for a contact GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — Get a specific note GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — List appointments GET /contacts/ — List all contacts GET /contacts/business/:businessId — List contacts for a business Endpoint9: contacts.write — Permission to modify contacts (use with care) POST /contacts/ — Create a new contact PUT /contacts/:contactId — Update a contact DELETE /contacts/:contactId — Delete a contact POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Create a new task for a contact PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Update a task PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — Mark a task as completed DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Delete a task POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — Add tags to a contact
Trigger: whenever a contact is updated or created in GHL, fetch the latest data from the Contacts API to sync Virtualbadge-io records.
Actions: read contact details, update notes, attach tasks, or log events in Virtualbadge-io.
Example method/path: GET /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, tags
Trigger: new badge or event in Virtualbadge-io creates or updates a contact in GHL.
Actions: create contact, update fields, add notes, and schedule tasks as needed.
Example: POST /contacts/ or PUT /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: name, email, phone, internalId
Trigger: schedule a batch sync to align all contacts for a campaign.
Actions: batch create/update, attach tags, and update note summaries.
Example endpoints: POST /contacts/bulk or PUT /contacts/bulk/:batchId
Key fields: contactId, batchId, status
Automate data flows without writing code: trigger actions, update records, and sync data with a few clicks.
Centralize contact intelligence: enrich records with notes and tasks from Virtualbadge-io.
Reduce manual data entry and speed up campaigns with seamless integration.
This section defines the major data elements (contacts, tasks, notes, appointments, tags) and processes used to exchange data between GHL’s Contacts API and Virtualbadge-io.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that lets your applications talk to each other and request data or actions from another service.
OAuth 2.0: a secure, standardized framework for granting access tokens to apps without sharing user credentials.
A specific URL in an API that represents a resource or action you can perform (e.g., GET /contacts/:id).
Permission levels requested by an app (e.g., readonly) that determine what data can be accessed.
Pull contact details from the GHL Contacts API and enrich Virtualbadge-io profiles with notes, tags, and task suggestions.
When a contact action occurs in GHL, automatically create or update related tasks in Virtualbadge-io to keep teams aligned.
Bulk-synchronize contact segments for campaigns, including engagement notes and tags for precise targeting.
Create your app in the GHL developer console, obtain client credentials, and authorize Virtualbadge-io to access Contacts API with the required scope.
Connect the endpoints you plan to use (e.g., GET /contacts/:contactId, POST /contacts/) in Virtualbadge-io’s workflow settings.
Run tests to ensure data sync works reliably and deploy to production with monitoring.
No coding is required for basic data synchronization in many setups, but some initial configuration may be necessary to connect the two platforms. Use Virtualbadge-io’s built-in connectors to map fields and trigger actions without writing code. If you need more complex logic, you can extend your workflows with custom rules. For advanced scenarios, consult the API documentation to tailor requests and handle errors gracefully.
Read-only access typically uses the scope: contacts.readonly. This limits the app to fetching data without modifying it, reducing risk and keeping data secure. You can request additional scopes only if your use case requires write permissions.
Yes. Depending on your permissions, you can create or update contact records from Virtualbadge-io by using POST /contacts/ and PUT /contacts/:contactId. Ensure you handle idempotency and verify data integrity during syncs.
Supported endpoints for tasks and notes include GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId. Refer to the endpoint list for full coverage and permissions.
Start with a dry run in a staging environment: connect the apps, simulate data fetches, and verify fields map correctly. Use test contacts and mock data to confirm workflows behave as expected before going live.
Yes. The integration is designed to be no-code friendly, with configurable triggers, actions, and field mappings. For more complex needs, you can augment with API calls and custom rules while maintaining a no-code core.
