Prerequisites
- A Substack publication
- Your Substack domain (e.g.,
mynewsletter.substack.com)
Connecting Your Newsletter
Unlike Beehiiv and ConvertKit, Substack doesn’t currently provide an API or OAuth2 integration. Instead, BeeHype uses a simplified connection process:- Go to BeeHype Integrations
- In the Substack section, click “Connect”
- Enter your Substack domain (e.g.,
mynewsletter.substack.com) - Click “Save Configuration”

Content Access
Due to Substack’s platform limitations, BeeHype can access: ✅ Public Posts- Full content
- Images and media
- Publication date
- Title and description
- Preview content only
- Title and description
- Publication date
- Featured image (if public)
We respect Substack’s content access restrictions. For subscriber-only posts, we can only transform the publicly available preview content into social media posts. However, you can still use the full content of your private posts by copying and pasting them directly into BeeHype’s content editor.
Verification & Next Steps
After connecting:- The status will show as “Connected”
- Go to Create Content to import your Substack posts
- Select the posts you want to transform into social media content
You can import your posts at any time from the Create Content page. This gives you full control over which posts you want to transform into social media content.
Data Security & Privacy
Your domain information and content access are handled with the highest security standards:- Encrypted Storage: All connection data is encrypted using industry-standard AES-256 encryption
- Limited Usage: Your domain is only accessed when performing specific actions like importing content or syncing data
- No Unnecessary Access: We never access your Substack data for any purpose other than the features you’ve explicitly enabled
- Complete Deletion: When you disconnect the integration, all associated data is immediately and permanently deleted from our servers
- Secure Transmission: All communications use HTTPS with TLS 1.3 encryption
- Regular Security Audits: Our systems undergo regular security assessments to ensure your data remains protected
BeeHype is committed to maintaining the highest security standards. Your trust is essential to us, and we’ve built our infrastructure with privacy and security as core principles.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues:- Verify your Substack domain is entered correctly
- Ensure your publication is active and accessible
- Check if your posts are publicly visible
- Wait a few minutes for content synchronization
