Pass audience information from Kit to Membership.io to grant Hub access and add/remove audience tags.
🧰 What You Will Need
- An activated Membership.io account
- An activated Kit Creator or Creator Pro account
Follow these simple steps to connect your Kit account to Membership.io using the API key and import your audience data. Use the automation triggers so you can easily manage their Hub access.
Step 1 - Grab your Secret API Key
Head into your Kit account and open your Developer Settings page to show and copy your API Secret.
Step 2 - Connect the Kit app
Head into your Membership.io account and open your Apps page. Click on Kit > + Add Account.
Enter your API Secret and click ✔️ Confirm at the bottom part of the page.
You have successfully connected your Kit account to Membership.io. However, there is one more step—configuring your Kit automation. Begin by selecting the triggers and actions for importing your audience data. This will enable you to grant or revoke Hub access, among other options.
Step 3 - Create a Kit automation
Inside the Kit app in your Membership.io account, click + Add Automation. Enter a name for your automation and click ➕ Confirm.
Under "If this happens in Kit", select the trigger you want to use to start your Hub Access automation. You can choose from the following:

- A tag is added to the subscriber
- A tag is removed from a subscriber
- A subscriber subscribes to a form
Select the tag or form you want to use for your automation trigger.
Under "Then do this in Membership.io", select the automation action. You can choose between:
- Add the subscriber to a Hub
- Remove the subscriber to a Hub
- Add an audience tag to the subscriber
- Remove an audience tag from the subscriber
Finally, select the Hub or audience tag you want to add or remove.
When granting access to your Hub, check the "Welcome email notification" box to ensure members are notified of their Hub access.
Once you're happy with your automation configuration, click Save to activate it!
