Authentication to the GHL Contacts API uses your API key with the scope contacts.readonly. Keep keys secret and rotate them regularly. Use the minimal access needed for your flow.
Connect Zenkit securely by completing an OAuth or API grant flow in the Zenkit app. Use your app credentials to obtain tokens and authorize the GHL endpoints needed for syncing.
GET /contacts/:contactId; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks; GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes; GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id; GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments; GET /contacts/; GET /contacts/business/:businessId; POST /contacts/; PUT /contacts/:contactId; DELETE /contacts/:contactId; POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId; PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed; DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId; POST /contacts/:contactId/tags
Trigger when a contact is created or updated in Zenkit to sync to GHL
Actions include creating or updating the contact in GHL and syncing related tasks and notes
Use GET on the GHL API to fetch contact data via /contacts/:contactId
Key fields include contactId name email phone status
Trigger when notes or tasks are updated in GHL to create or update Zenkit items
Actions include creating Zenkit notes and tasks linked to the Zenkit contact
Endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId/notes and GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Fields include contactId noteId taskId
Trigger when a Zenkit task status changes to update the corresponding GHL task
Actions include updating GHL task status and marking as completed when needed
PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed
Fields include contactId taskId status
Fast setup and automation without writing code
Two way data sync reduces gaps between systems
Scales with your business as endpoints evolve
Core concepts to understand when linking GHL with Zenkit include authentication endpoints data mapping and error handling
A set of rules and tools that lets apps communicate and exchange data
A specific URL and HTTP method used to access data or perform an action
A note sent by an app when an event happens to trigger another app
An open standard for token based authorization
Automatically enrich Zenkit contacts with data from GHL when a contact is updated
Create Zenkit tasks from GHL notes and update statuses
Sync reminders between Zenkit and GHL to keep teams aligned
Obtain API key and set scopes to contacts.readonly and required endpoints
Register the Zenkit app in your identity provider and set redirect URLs
Establish the connection in the connector and run test sync for contacts notes and tasks
Zenkit to GHL sync covers contacts notes and tasks. You can map fields and set triggers. The connection supports automatic retries and error reporting. Ensure data formats align.
No code is required for basic setup if you use the connector. For advanced automation some scripting may help. The no code approach is suitable for most teams.
Connections use encrypted transport and token based authentication. Rotate keys regularly and monitor access.
Yes you can disable endpoints. Start with read only to test and then enable writes as needed.
API key with proper scopes or OAuth tokens are recommended. Use least privilege principle.
Enable retries and logs. Use error codes to adjust mapping and rate limits.
View logs in the Zenkit connector dashboard. Also check GHL API access logs.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
