Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to write code to connect Wizehire with the Contacts API?

No coding is required for basic sync; you can use a no-code tool like Zapier App Connector to connect Wizehire to the GHL Contacts API. Begin with authentication and a simple upsert of new or updated contacts. As you validate data flow, expand mappings and enable additional endpoints. Tip: start with GET /contacts/:contactId to pull a contact and then upsert with POST /contacts/ or PUT /contacts/:contactId as needed.

You typically authenticate with OAuth 2.0 or API keys, depending on how GHL exposes access. For no-code flows, use the standard OAuth client flow to obtain access tokens and refresh tokens, then store them securely. If API keys are supported, rotate them regularly and restrict scope to Contacts endpoints.

Common endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId to retrieve a contact, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks for tasks, POST /contacts/ to create a contact, and PUT /contacts/:contactId to update. For a complete view, refer to the endpoint list above.

Yes. You can upsert contacts from Wizehire to GHL using POST /contacts/ or PUT /contacts/:contactId. The same approach works in reverse for updating Wizehire with GHL data if you map fields correctly.

Implement retries with exponential backoff, handle 429 and 500 errors gracefully, and log failed requests. Use idempotent operations (upsert) to avoid duplicate records. Set up alerts for failed syncs.

Yes. A no-code setup is achievable with the Zapier App Connector or similar tools. Start by authenticating both apps, create a simple trigger on a new contact, and add an action to upsert in the other system.

Map core fields such as name, email, phone, and tags. Use custom fields for notes or deal-related data. Keep ID references consistent across systems to maintain data integrity.
