How to Integrate Group Leads with Beehiv

This tutorial walks you through connecting your Beehiiv account to Group Leads so that new Facebook group members are automatically added to your Beehiiv subscriber list.

Step 1: Get Your Beehiiv API Key

Log in to your Beehiiv account and click Settings in the bottom-left sidebar.

Once inside Settings, scroll down the left menu and click API.

On the API page, click the Create New API Key button. A popup modal will appear — enter a name for your key in the Key Name field, then click Create New Key.

Note: Copy your API key immediately and paste it into a notepad or text file. You won't be able to view it again after closing this modal.

Step 2: Copy Your Publication ID

While still on the API page, scroll down to the Publication ID section.

Copy the V2 Publication ID — make sure to use the V2 version specifically, as other formats won't work with the integration.

Tip: Paste this Publication ID into the same notepad file as your API key so both are easy to find in the next steps.

Step 3: Open the Group Leads Chrome Extension

Open your browser and navigate to your Facebook group at facebook.com/messages . Then click the Group Leads extension icon in your Chrome toolbar to open it.

Step 4: Navigate to the Autoresponder Settings

Inside the Group Leads extension, go to your Facebook group's Settings tab.

Click the Autoresponder tab, then select Beehiiv from the list of available autoresponders.

Step 5: Enter Your Beehiiv Credentials

Fill in the following fields using the credentials you copied in Steps 1 and 2:

  • API Key — Paste the API key you generated in Step 1
  • Publication ID — Paste the V2 Publication ID you copied in Step 2
  • Exact Tag Name — Enter the tag you want applied to new contacts in Beehiiv

Tip: You can assign multiple tags to new contacts by entering each tag in the Exact Tag Name field separated by commas (e.g., facebook-leads, newsletter).

Step 6: Save Your Settings

Click Update to save your configuration.

✅ You're All Set!

Your Beehiiv account is now connected to Group Leads. From this point on, whenever someone joins your Facebook group and fills out the membership questions, their details will be automatically sent to your Beehiiv subscriber list with the tag(s) you specified.
