Frequently asked questions

What is the GHL Tasks API and how does it work with youengage?

The GHL Tasks API enables programmatic access to search, create, update, and sync tasks between your GHL account and youengage. Use secure authentication and well-defined mappings to automate workflows. Leverage OAuth2 or API keys to authorize requests and ensure tokens are stored securely and rotated regularly.

To authenticate, obtain an OAuth token or API key from GHL and configure your app to send the Authorization header. Protect credentials and rotate keys on a schedule. In youengage, store credentials securely in your vault and implement token refresh as needed to maintain uninterrupted access.

The primary endpoint is POST /locations/:locationId/tasks/search to retrieve tasks by location. Additional endpoints may be used depending on your workflow (create, update, etc.). Map only the endpoints you actually call and document any custom fields. Always test endpoints in a sandbox environment before going live to avoid data loss.

Common mappings include locationId, taskName, status, dueDate, and related identifiers. Align field names between GHL and youengage and use consistent data types to ensure reliable syncing. Document field mappings and implement validation to catch mismatches early.

Handle errors with standard HTTP status checks and implement retry logic with exponential backoff. Log failures with enough context to diagnose issues, and alert your team for critical errors. Use idempotent operations where possible to prevent duplicate records on retries.

Rate limits vary by plan; respect them by batching requests and caching results when feasible. Implement backoff strategies on 429 responses and monitor usage in your dashboard. Consider requesting higher limits if your automation load grows, following best practices from both platforms.

API credentials should be rotated on a regular schedule and immediately after a suspected exposure. Store credentials securely and implement automated rotation where possible. Document the rotation process and ensure dependent services update their credentials without downtime.
