How to Set Up a ChurchSuite Group Integration with Joyned

‍

Step 1: Request an API Key from ChurchSuite

To begin, you’ll need to obtain an API key from ChurchSuite.

• Create a dummy admin user account in ChurchSuite before requesting the key.
  • This ensures the key isn’t tied to an individual who might leave your organisation.
• Request the API key by contacting ChurchSuite support at support@churchsuite.com.

‍

Step 2: Prepare Joyned for Integration

Once you have the API key and dummy admin account ready:

1. Log in to Joyned and create an Area if one doesn’t already exist for your integration.
2. Inside the Area, go to the Integrations tab.

‍

Step 3: Add the ChurchSuite Integration

1. Click on the + icon in the Integrations tab, located above the Community Syncs list.
2. Select the ChurchSuite Small Groups option from the available integrations.

‍

Step 4: Enter Required Details

1. Fill in your ChurchSuite Account URL (e.g., example.churchsuite.com).
2. Paste your API key from ChurchSuite into the relevant field.
3. Double-check all details for accuracy.

‍

Step 5: Finalise and Verify

1. Click Create to activate the integration.
2. Once completed, syncing will begin.
   • Communities for all the small groups in your ChurchSuite account will now appear within the selected Area in Joyned.
