Connect Gravity Forms to Beehiiv

Connect Gravity Forms to Beehiiv and every form submission becomes a subscriber in the publication you choose. The free ClickSyncr for Beehiiv plugin adds a native Gravity Forms feed add-on: connect your API key once, pick a publication, map your fields, save. So there is no code, and it takes about two minutes per form.

Before you begin

You need three things: the ClickSyncr for Beehiiv plugin activated, Gravity Forms active, and a Beehiiv account with permission to create an API key. You store the key once, and every supported builder on the site then shares it.

Get your Beehiiv API key

1. Log in to Beehiiv and go to Settings → Integrations (app.beehiiv.com/settings/integrations).
2. Create a new API key and give it a recognisable name such as WordPress ClickSyncr.
3. Copy it and paste it into any ClickSyncr Beehiiv panel. One key serves the whole site.

Treat the key like a password. Anyone holding it can read and modify your Beehiiv subscribers.

Gravity Forms setup, step by step

1. Open the form’s settings and find ClickSyncr Beehiiv. From Forms, edit a form and open Settings. ClickSyncr Beehiiv appears in the settings menu as a feed add-on, the same pattern as every Gravity Forms integration.
2. Create a feed and connect your Beehiiv API key. Also, you store the key once for the whole site, so other forms and builders then share the connection.
3. Choose the Beehiiv publication. In fact, the publication list loads from your account with subscriber and field counts.
4. Map your form fields. Then the feed’s field map pairs Gravity Forms fields with Email (required) and the publication’s custom fields.
5. Optional: set a consent field. Also, select a checkbox field so only opted-in visitors arrive as Active subscribers; the rest are stored as Unconfirmed.
6. Save the feed. In addition, every submission that passes the feed now syncs.

Email and custom fields

Beehiiv identifies subscribers by email, so Email is the one required mapping. Every other row maps to your publication’s custom fields, which ClickSyncr loads automatically once the key connects. Custom fields are per publication in Beehiiv; before you pick a publication the list shows the union across your account. Also, ClickSyncr simply skips an unmapped field and never overwrites existing subscriber data with a blank value.

Subscriber status and double opt-in

Each form chooses a subscriber status: Active, Unconfirmed, or Use publication setting, which defers to your publication’s own opt-in behaviour. A consent field overrides it per submission: ticked syncs Active, unticked Unconfirmed. Beehiiv deduplicates by email, so it reactivates and updates existing subscribers instead of duplicating them.

Verify the sync

First, submit the form on the front end (not the admin preview) with a test address you can recognise, filling every mapped field. Then, in Beehiiv, open your publication’s subscriber list and confirm the subscriber exists with the mapped values and the status you expect. In short, that one minute catches almost every configuration mistake.

Troubleshooting

Is this a Gravity Forms feed add-on?

Yes. ClickSyncr for Beehiiv registers a standard Gravity Forms feed add-on, so feeds behave exactly like the Gravity Forms integrations you already know.

Do I need a specific Gravity Forms license?

Any license tier works. The plugin only needs Gravity Forms itself active on the site.

Frequently asked questions

Which Gravity Forms consent values allow a submission to reach Beehiiv?

The consent check recognises yes, true, on, checked, and the checked value 1. It rejects empty answers and explicit negatives such as no, false, off, and unchecked. Recognised checkbox types can also use another nonempty value unless it is an explicit negative. Choose the actual consent input in Gravity Forms, then test its checked and unchecked answers.

How are Gravity Forms custom-field values sent to Beehiiv?

The Beehiiv client sends mapped custom values as cleaned text, using the custom-field names loaded for the selected publication. It skips empty values. A type label beside a mapping does not mean this client converts the answer to a native boolean or number. Test a representative answer from Gravity Forms and inspect the stored value in Beehiiv.

Why do Beehiiv sync counts stay unchanged after a Gravity Forms submission?

ClickSyncr excludes skipped results from both success and failure counts. Missing form credentials, a missing destination, an invalid email, or refused consent can therefore leave the counters unchanged. Check that the Gravity Forms feed and its conditions allowed the test entry through. Then submit a valid test with consent given. A stationary counter alone does not establish whether the contact was sent to Beehiiv.
