ConvertKit integration

ConvertKit (now rebranded as Kit) is an email marketing platform designed for creators, bloggers, and online businesses. It provides tools for managing subscribers, creating email sequences, building landing pages, and sending broadcast emails. Integrating ConvertKit with Frontegg allows your application to manage subscribers, tags, forms, sequences, and broadcasts on behalf of your users through API key authentication.


Prerequisites

  • A ConvertKit (Kit) account (free or paid plan). Sign up at kit.com

Connect ConvertKit

Step 1: Open the settings menu

Log in to your Kit account and click your profile avatar in the top-right corner. Select Settings from the dropdown menu.

Step 3: Copy your API key and API secret

On the Developer page, scroll down to the V3 Key section. You will see two fields:

  • Your API Key — used for public API endpoints (listing forms, sequences, tags).
  • API Secret — used for sensitive API endpoints (managing subscribers, broadcasts, account info). Click Show to reveal its value.

Click the Copy button next to each field and store both values securely.

Keep your credentials secure

Your API Secret grants access to sensitive subscriber data. Never share it publicly or commit it to version control.
