## FAQs

### How do I integrate Google Contacts API with my application?

Apideck provides a unified CRM API that makes Google Contacts integration simple. Sign up for free, enable Google Contacts in your dashboard, and use our Vault component to let your users connect their Google Contacts accounts. We handle OAuth authentication, token refresh, and data normalization automatically.

### What Google Contacts data can I access through Apideck?

Our Google Contacts integration supports 2+ data models including directory people, and contacts. You can perform read and write operations through our unified API, working with the same code structure across all crm platforms.

### How does Google Contacts authentication work with Apideck?

Apideck's Vault handles Google Contacts authentication completely. Your users connect their Google Contacts accounts through our secure, white-label UI. We manage OAuth tokens, automatic refresh, and credential storage, so you never have to implement Google Contacts's auth flow yourself.

### How do I keep my app in sync with Google Contacts?

While Google Contacts has limited native webhook support, Apideck provides polling-based sync and virtual webhooks to keep your data current. Configure your sync frequency in the dashboard, and we'll handle fetching updates from Google Contacts.

### Why use Apideck instead of Google Contacts's direct API?

Using Apideck's unified API instead of Google Contacts's direct API saves significant development time. You get normalized data models, automatic auth handling, and the same integration code works with 200+ other apps. When Google Contacts updates their API, we handle the changes so your integration keeps working.

### How quickly can I build a Google Contacts integration?

Most developers ship a working Google Contacts integration within a day using Apideck. Sign up for a free trial (no credit card required), enable Google Contacts, and make your first API call within minutes. Our SDKs for Node.js, Python, and other languages make implementation straightforward.
