The Contacts API uses API credentials and OAuth-style authorization to securely access Yapla data. Start by creating an app in GHL, request the scope ‘contacts.readonly’, and exchange credentials for an access token.
Yapla must authorize the GHL app to access its contacts data. After consent, Yapla will receive an access token with the granted scope to read and manage contacts, tasks, notes, and tags.
GET /contacts/:contactId — Retrieve a single contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — List tasks for a contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Retrieve a specific task; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — Retrieve notes for a contact; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — Retrieve a specific note; GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — Retrieve appointments for a contact; GET /contacts/ — List all contacts; GET /contacts/business/:businessId — Retrieve business details for a contact; contacts.write — Permissions for writing contact data; POST /contacts/ — Create a new contact; PUT /contacts/:contactId — Update a contact; DELETE /contacts/:contactId — Delete a contact; POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Create a task for a contact; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Update a task; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — Mark a task completed; DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Delete a task; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — Add tags to a contact

Key fields: contactId, name, email, tasks, notes
Trigger: A new task is created in Yapla for a contact.
Actions: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks, PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
Method paths: POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId
Key fields: contactId, taskId, title, status
Trigger: Yapla tags a contact after a major update.

Method paths: GET /contacts/:contactId/notes; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags
Key fields: contactId, noteId, tag
No deployment of code is required to start syncing Yapla with the GHL Contacts API.
Set up triggers and actions in your workflow to automatically move data between Yapla and GHL.
Scale to additional endpoints as your processes grow, without rewriting integrations.
A quick glossary of terms and common processes used in the Yapla–GHL integration.
A person or entity stored in Yapla and linked to data in GHL via the Contacts API.
A specific URL path combined with an HTTP method used to perform an action in the GHL API.
The process of proving identity and granting access using tokens, keys, or OAuth credentials between Yapla and GHL.
A defined level of access requested by the app, such as contacts.readonly, used to limit permissions.
Create a trigger in Yapla to mirror new GHL contacts into Yapla with key fields mapped.
Sync tasks from Yapla to GHL and pull back status changes for a unified view.
Automatically tag contacts in Yapla based on GHL data fields and use those tags in reports.
Register the Yapla app in GHL, create API credentials, and request the contacts.readonly scope.
Authenticate the Yapla app and obtain an access token to access contact data securely.
Define field mappings for contacts, tasks, and notes, then run tests against the endpoints.
The required scope is typically contacts.readonly to fetch contact data. You may request additional scopes if writing is needed. To enable it, create an app in GHL, obtain client credentials, and authorize Yapla to access the data. Store tokens securely.
Common endpoints for basic sync include GET /contacts/:contactId to fetch a contact and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks to pull related tasks. These give you the essential data surface. For writes, you would use POST /contacts/ or PUT /contacts/:contactId with appropriate permissions.
Yes. Use a sandbox or staging environment within GHL and Yapla to validate requests without touching production data. You can also use test data and simulated responses to verify mappings and flows.
No heavy coding is required; you can configure most flows using built-in no-code automation. If your needs grow, you can add minimal custom logic or use a middleware for complex mappings.
To revoke access, go to the GHL app settings and revoke the token or remove the app. Update Yapla to stop using the credentials and refresh any dependent workflows.
Rate limits depend on your GHL plan and API tier. If limits are reached, consider batching requests, caching results, or negotiating higher quotas with support.
Credentials and docs are available in the GHL developer console and the Yapla integration docs. Refer to the API reference for endpoints, scopes, and example requests.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
