Integration methods

How beehiiv connects to Plandalf

Each method below is the minimum viable setup. Pick the one closest to how you already use beehiiv with checkout, payments, invoices, webhooks, API work, SDK checkout, and integrations.

1. Method 1

   Embed a Plandalf buy button

   Drop the Plandalf embed script into a beehiiv HTML block and tag any element with `data-plandalf-present` to open the configured flow on click.

   <script src="https://cdn.plandalf.com/embed.js" async></script>
   
   <button data-plandalf-present="offer_abc123">
     Buy now
   </button>

2. Method 2

   Drop in a per-recipient countdown image

   Add an HTML block to any beehiiv email and paste the Plandalf countdown URL. beehiiv's merge tag `{{ email }}` substitutes per recipient so each subscriber sees a timer pegged to their own deadline.

   <img
     src="https://cdn.plandalf.com/timers/{TIMER_ID}.gif?ref={{ email }}"
     alt="Time remaining on this offer"
     width="600"
     height="120"
   />

3. Method 3

   Trigger a sequence from a form

   Point a beehiiv form's webhook / POST URL at Plandalf's intake endpoint and every submission starts whatever sequence you've mapped to it.

   curl -X POST https://api.plandalf.com/v1/intake/beehiiv \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"email": "{{ form.email }}", "source": "beehiiv"}'

4. Method 4

   Enrol from an automation step

   Inside beehiiv's automation builder, add a Webhook step that POSTs the contact to a Plandalf sequence catch URL. Use this to mirror beehiiv journey logic into Plandalf without re-building the segmentation.

   {
     "email": "{{ contact.email }}",
     "sequence": "post-signup-onboarding",
     "source": "beehiiv"
   }

5. Method 5

   REST API webhook

   For anything not covered by a native trigger, configure a beehiiv webhook to POST to Plandalf. The payload is forwarded into the sequence as `${event}`.

   curl -X POST https://api.plandalf.com/v1/webhooks/beehiiv \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $PLANDALF_API_KEY" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d @event.json
