Kit is designed to work well with all your favorite third-party tools and extend its functionality with additional apps you install.
What are apps?
Apps are external applications you can install to extend the functionality of what you do with Kit.
For example, you can install an app like KitBoard to get a kanban-style view of your sales pipeline—it'll automatically pull in subscribers with Tags you set in Kit, so you know who to reach out to next.
Apps are built by a community of developers. Learn more about building apps for Kit here.
How to install an app
To install an app, click Apps under the Automate tab in the navigation to go to the Kit App Store.
Use the app categories and filters to narrow your search. Once you've identified an app you want to install, click its Install button.
One of two authentication flows will trigger:
1. API authorization
You'll see a confirmation screen asking permission to connect the app with your Kit account. Once you click Grant access to XX, you can use the app immediately.
2. Redirect to third-party application
You'll be redirected to the third-party application's authentication flow, where you'll log in and grant access to the third party to access your data.
Once you've granted access, you can use the app immediately.
Updating an app
When app developers release new versions of their apps, you may need to manually update their apps in Kit to access the latest features.
A new manual app update is available when the app displays an Update button and an update icon in the Kit App Store:
Apps with new manual updates will also be displayed at the top of the Kit App Store's Manage page.
Click the app's Update button to start the updating process.
How to uninstall an app
To uninstall an app, go to the Kit App Store or the app's details page, and click Uninstall.
How to troubleshoot an app
We don't provide support for third-party apps. If you need support for any of your installed apps, refer to the knowledgebase article listed on their app details page or reach out to their support directly.
Request an app
Want to help us grow our Kit App Store? Please share what type of functionality you'd like the app to have and what problems it'd solve for you. We have a community of developers who'll be able to help turn your ideas into reality.
What are integrations?
Integrations allow you to sync and pass data between Kit and a third-party tool that you use.
For example, you can integrate with Podia, which will allow any new online course customers who aren't on your list to be added and tagged in Kit. Subscriber information is automatically synced and shared for you to use.
