Prerequisites

Before using beehiiv components in Appmixer, you need:

1. A beehiiv account on the Scale plan ($49/mo) or higher — the free Launch plan does not include API access

2. An API key generated from the beehiiv dashboard

3. Owner or Admin role in your beehiiv workspace

---

1. Create a beehiiv Account

Sign up at https://app.beehiiv.com/signup.

API access is only available on the Scale plan ($49/month) or higher. The free Launch plan does not include API access.

2. Generate an API Key

1. Log into your beehiiv account at https://app.beehiiv.com

2. Scroll down to Workspace Settings in the left sidebar

3. Click API

4. Click Create New Key

5. Enter a name for the key (e.g., "Appmixer Integration")

6. Click Create New Key

7. Copy the generated API key immediately

The API key is only shown once at the time of creation. Make sure to copy and store it in a secure location before closing the dialog.

You must have an Owner or Admin role in your workspace to access API key settings.

3. Connect in Appmixer

When adding a beehiiv component in Appmixer, you will be prompted to authenticate. Provide:

Field	Value
API Key	The API key generated in Step 2

The API key is used as a Bearer token for all requests to the beehiiv API (https://api.beehiiv.com/v2).

Troubleshooting

"Authentication failed: Invalid API key"

The API key is incorrect or has been revoked. Generate a new API key from Workspace Settings > API in the beehiiv dashboard.

No publications returned

Make sure your API key has access to at least one publication. The beehiiv API scopes all operations under a publication — most components require a Publication ID.

"403 Forbidden" errors

Your beehiiv plan may not include API access. Verify you are on the Scale plan ($49/mo) or higher.
