How to connect Whop to Contacts API

Whop + Contacts API: quick start and practical steps

Connecting the Contacts API from GHL with Whop in a few simple steps

This integration lets Whop pull contact data, tasks, notes and more from the GHL Contacts API to drive automations, enrich workflows, and keep your CRM in sync without writing code.

Authentication for Contacts API

Use the GHL credentials to obtain an access token with the scope contacts.readonly. This read-only access keeps data secure while enabling powerful read operations.

Authentication for Whop

Configure Whop with secure API credentials to talk to GHL. Use OAuth or API keys as supported, and store tokens in a secure vault within Whop.

Frequently Asked Questions

What permissions are required for this connection?

You need a GHL access token with the scope contacts.readonly. In Whop, configure the GHL app credentials and attach the token to enable read-only access to contact data. This ensures secure, compliant data retrieval. The setup also requires correct base URLs and the contactId parameter for requests. Use the included sample calls to verify connectivity and data structure before going live.

Read-only endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, GET /contacts/:contactId/notes, and similar GET endpoints. Write operations are not permitted under the contacts.readonly scope. If you need write access, you must obtain elevated permissions from GHL and update the integration configuration accordingly.

Authenticate using the token obtained from GHL with the appropriate scope. Include the Authorization header in requests to Whop and GHL as required by Whop, using OAuth or API keys as supported. The Whop setup UI will guide you through linking the two systems securely.

With a read-only scope, you cannot create or update contacts via this integration. To perform writes, request a higher permission scope from GHL or implement a separate write-enabled flow. For many workflows, read-only access is sufficient for reporting and activity monitoring.

Test the integration with a sandbox or test contact IDs. Validate all GET calls and confirm the data structure returned. Monitor API rate limits and retry with exponential backoff if you hit throttling.

Common errors include 401 (unauthorized), 403 (forbidden), and 429 (rate limit). Check credentials, ensure the correct scope, and adjust request frequency. Review logs in Whop and GHL for debugging details.

Consult GHL and Whop documentation for integration steps, endpoint references, and best practices. If you still need help, reach out to support or the community forums for guidance.
