Automate MailerLite

MailerLite runs your subscriber groups and email campaigns. Automations tell you when people join a group, show who clicked in a campaign and send the week's results without you opening the reports. Describe what you want to your AI assistant, check what it will do, and it keeps running.

Try asking

Create a ClickRuntime automation: when someone subscribes in MailerLite, post their email and group name to #marketing in Slack.

Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

Ideas

What you can automate in MailerLite

Sign-ups as they happen, clicks from the people reading your campaigns and a Monday email with last week's numbers. These are ready-made starting points. Anything else you can describe works too.

Build your own

Build any MailerLite automation you can describe

The ideas above are ready-made starting points, not a fixed list. Describe what MailerLite should do in your own words, with your conditions, other apps or an AI step, and your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.

  • Your own rules

    Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.

  • Any number of apps

    One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.

  • AI where it helps

    Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.

  • On a schedule or on each event

    Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

For example, ask your assistant

Every week, find MailerLite subscribers who have not opened any of the last 10 campaigns and move them to an inactive group.

When a new Shopify customer places a first order, add them to a MailerLite group.

When a Typeform is submitted, add the person to MailerLite, log them in a Google Sheet and send me a Slack note if they chose the enterprise option.

Beyond chat

Have MailerLite work when you're not in the chat

Connecting MailerLite to ChatGPT or Claude lets you ask about it while you chat. ClickRuntime handles the part that should happen on its own: checks on a schedule and actions on each new event, set up from the same chat and running after you close it.

Setup

Connect MailerLite

You connect MailerLite with an API token you generate in your own account. It works with the current MailerLite, not Classic accounts.

MailerLite

Email marketing

  1. In MailerLite, open Integrations and choose MailerLite API.
  2. Click Generate new token and copy it.
  3. In the ClickRuntime dashboard, open Connections & secrets and save the token as a secret for MailerLite.

Good to know

MailerLite limits that affect automations

  • MailerLite allows 120 API requests per minute across the account, so a large export or sync has to be spread out.
  • Creating imports is limited to 5 per minute.
  • When the limit is hit, MailerLite returns a 429 with a Retry-After time to wait.
  • Classic MailerLite accounts use a different, legacy API.

FAQ

Questions about automating MailerLite

What can ClickRuntime see in MailerLite?
What your API token can reach, such as subscribers and their groups, campaigns and their stats, and webhooks for events like a new subscriber or a link click.
Does it work with MailerLite Classic?
Classic accounts use a separate legacy API. These automations are built for the current MailerLite.
Won't click alerts get noisy?
On a big send, they can. Ask your assistant to collect the clicks and send one daily digest instead of a message per click.
Are subscriber and click alerts real-time?
Yes. The automation creates a webhook in MailerLite, and each event is posted as it arrives.
Do I need AI for this?
No. Alerts and stats emails run without it. If you add a written summary, it uses the AI included in every ClickRuntime plan, so you don't need an AI key.
Is this a MailerLite connector for ChatGPT or Claude?
Not for chatting with MailerLite data. A chat connector lets your assistant read and change MailerLite while you're in the conversation. ClickRuntime is for the work that should happen without you: you set up an automation from the chat once, and it keeps running on a schedule or on each MailerLite event.
