Why Connect Newie + Skool

For creators running paid communities or cohorts in Skool while billing through Newie. Skool handles the community, courses, and gamification; Newie handles subscriptions and retries. Zapier sends paying customers a community invite without manual lookup.

Common Zaps

Subscription Started → Skool: Invite Member When billing starts and the subscription becomes active, invite the customer to the Skool group. One-Off Purchase Complete → Skool: Invite Member For one-off paid cohort purchases, send the Skool invite after the purchase is complete. Subscription Ends → Slack/Email notification Notify yourself or a community manager to remove the member from Skool if that is how you manage access. Skool’s Zapier removal options are limited, so this is usually manual. Payment Overdue → Slack notification Alert the community manager so they can decide whether to pause access or wait for retry.

What You’ll Need

  • Newie account with Zapier connected (Settings → Integrations → Zapier)
  • A Skool Pro plan
  • A Skool community you own or admin
  • The Skool group API key and group URL for Zapier authentication

Setup at a Glance

  1. In Newie, go to Settings → Integrations → Zapier and copy your API token.
  2. In Zapier, create a new Zap and choose Newie as the trigger. Pick Subscription Started or One-Off Purchase Complete.
  3. Connect Skool as the action app using your Skool group API key and group URL.
  4. Choose Invite Member.
  5. Map Newie email and name to the invite fields.
  6. Test with a real purchase, confirm the customer receives the Skool invite, then enable the Zap.
See Connecting Newie to Zapier for setup details.

Notes

  • Before turning on the Zap, confirm Skool exposes Invite Member for the specific group API key and group URL. If the action is unavailable for that group or plan, send a staff notification instead of promising an automatic invite.
  • For cancellation removals, treat removal as manual today. Automate the notification, not the removal.
