How to Integrate Group Leads With Active Campaign

This guide walks you through the final step of syncing your Facebook group leads from Group Leads to ActiveCampaign. If you’ve already installed Group Leads, set up your Google Sheet, and added your group questions—this is the last piece of the puzzle.

1. Log into ActiveCampaign

Go to ActiveCampaign and sign in to your account.

Click on Contacts in the left-hand menu.

2. Create or Select a List

Click on Lists in the sidebar, then select Add a list to create a new one. 

You can also use an existing list if you already have one.

3. Fill In List Details

Complete the list details (such as name and description), then click Save to finish creating your list.

4. Open the List Page

Once your list is created, click on the list name to open its details page.

5. Get Your List ID

On the list’s detail page, look at the URL in your browser’s address bar.

You’ll find something like:https://youraccount.activehosted.com/app/contacts/?listid=2

Copy the full URL and paste it into Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (Mac). The number after listid= is your List ID (e.g., 2 in this case). Keep this handy.

6. Get Your API Key and URL

Before leaving ActiveCampaign:

• Click the gear icon ⚙️ at the bottom-left corner of the screen.
• Go to Developer from the settings menu.
• Copy your API URL and API Key.
• Paste them into your Notepad/TextEdit alongside your List ID.

7. (Optional) Create a Tag

To help organize your leads, you can add a tag to each contact:

• Go to Contacts > Tags
• Type your desired tag name and click Add Tag

Your new tag will now appear in your tags list.

8. Open Group Leads Extension

In your browser:

• Open the Group Leads Chrome extension.
• Go to your group settings
• Click the Autoresponder tab.

9. Select ActiveCampaign

From the list of autoresponders, choose ActiveCampaign.

Then click on Credentials.

10. Enter Your Credentials

Refer to your Notepad or TextEdit.

• Paste your API URL
• Paste your API Key
• Enter your List ID

Once filled in, click Update.

11. Add Tags to New Leads (Optional)

To automatically apply a tag to new leads:

• Click Credentials again
• In the fourth option, enter your tag name
• Click Find
• If the tag exists, it will appear in a dropdown—click it to select
• You can add multiple tags this way

Click Update to save.

✅ That’s it!

You’ve successfully integrated ActiveCampaign with your Group Leads account. New group members will now be synced to your list—automatically and effortlessly.
