Authenticate calls to the GHL API using your API credentials. Store tokens securely and revoke access when needed.
Authorize Zapier to access your GHL data via the connected app, enabling triggers and actions within your workflows.

Trigger on contact creation or updates to push changes to CRMs, email tools, or support systems.
Actions include fetching contact data (GET /contacts/:contactId), creating or updating contacts (POST/PUT /contacts), and syncing related data like tasks or notes.
GET /contacts/:contactId; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
Key fields: contactId, name, email, phone, tags, status, lastUpdated
Trigger on creation or update of tasks and notes to keep all systems aligned.
Actions include creating and updating tasks (POST/PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks) and reading notes (GET /contacts/:contactId/notes).
POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
Key fields: taskId, noteId, status, dueDate, content
Trigger on appointment creation or updates to surface calendar data across apps.
Actions include creating and updating appointments (POST/PUT /contacts/:contactId/appointments) and retrieving data (GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments).
POST /contacts/:contactId/appointments; GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments
Key fields: appointmentId, startTime, endTime, location
Automate data flows between GHL and hundreds of apps without writing a line of code.
Drag-and-drop workflow builder speeds setup, testing, and iteration.
Scales with your team, providing centralized data and consistent automation.
Glossary of core concepts used in this integration: endpoints, triggers, actions, authentication, and data fields.
A URL and HTTP method used to perform a specific operation against an API.
An event in your app that starts a workflow in Zapier or your automation platform.
An operation performed in response to a trigger, such as creating or updating a record.
The process of proving identity to access APIs, typically via OAuth or API keys.
When a lead is created in a marketing tool, automatically create a contact in GHL via the Contacts API and assign initial tasks to get them moving.
Sync updated emails, phones, and tags across CRMs, support tools, and marketing platforms to keep data consistent.
Create calendar reminders or appointments automatically when notes are logged in GHL.
Obtain your GHL API key and configure OAuth in Zapier for secure access.
Choose the endpoints you need (contacts, tasks, notes, appointments) and map the relevant fields.
Create Zaps, run test data, and monitor logs to ensure accurate data flow.
Zapier supports OAuth 2.0 and API key authentication for GHL connections. OAuth 2.0 is recommended for secure, token-based access and easy revocation. API keys provide a straightforward alternative for trusted environments. Ensure your credentials are stored securely and rotated periodically. If you are using OAuth, reconnecting the app when tokens expire will refresh access without disrupting your workflows.
The integration exposes core endpoints for contacts, their tasks, notes, appointments, and tags. You can read and write contacts, create and update tasks, attach notes, manage appointments, and assign tags. Not every endpoint is required for every flow, but all are available for flexible automation.
Field mapping lets you align GHL data with fields in other apps. Use Zapier to map contactId, name, email, and custom fields to corresponding fields in your destination app. Validate mappings with test data to ensure data types and formats match.
Absolutely. This integration is designed for no-code use, with a drag-and-drop workflow builder and pre-configured triggers. You can automate complex processes without writing code, while still providing full API access for advanced scenarios if needed.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
