Connect Pipeline CRM to Customer.io to automatically send the people who match your criteria, so you can power targeted email campaigns.
Before you start:
- Admin permissions in Pipeline CRM
- A Customer.io account with admin permissions
- People in Pipeline CRM with a first name, last name, email, and phone number
Step 1: Install Customer.io (admin)
- Click Settings in the lower-left corner.
- Go to Other > App Store.
- Find Customer.io and click Install.
Step 2: Create a source in Customer.io
Customer.io needs a source to receive data from Pipeline CRM.
- Sign in to Customer.io.
- Go to Data & Integrations > Integrations.
- Find the Customer.io API app.
- Name it and copy the API key.
For more help, see Customer.io's guide to the Pipelines API.
Step 3: Connect Pipeline CRM to Customer.io (admin)
- In Pipeline CRM, open the Customer.io integration settings.
- Paste the API key you copied.
- Click Save.

Step 4: Finish setup in Customer.io
- Go back to Customer.io and test the connection.
- Complete the setup.
- Set up a destination for where the data should go in Customer.io.

Step 5: Choose who syncs (admin)
- In Pipeline CRM, open the Customer.io integration settings.
- Select the Criteria tab.
- Choose which people sync to Customer.io, based on tags, custom fields, or other criteria.
For example, set the criteria to a "customer.io" tag. Any person you tag that way is sent to Customer.io automatically.
Step 6: Turn on the integration (admin)
Turn on the Enable toggle in the top-right corner of the Customer.io settings. You can also turn it on from the Customer.io tile in the App Store.
