Integrating with Snov.io
Connect Snov.io to sync prospect lists, campaign data, and email verification results into your CRM.

What is Snov.io integration and when should you use it?
Snov.io integration connects your Snov.io account to sync prospect lists, campaign data, and email verification results into your CRM. It lets you see Snov campaign status and performance alongside your CRM data.
Use this if you use Snov.io for email finding, verification, or multi-channel campaigns. It's particularly useful when you want to see which contacts are in Snov campaigns, their engagement status, and campaign metrics without switching between Snov and your CRM.
The integration also enables automations based on Snov events, like creating tasks when someone replies to a campaign email or updating contact status based on engagement.
How most teams handle Snov.io today
Most teams keep Snov.io completely separate from their CRM. They'll export prospect lists from Snov, import them to the CRM, then manually track campaign status. This creates duplicate data and manual work.
The problem is data silos. Campaign performance data lives in Snov, while contact data lives in the CRM. When you need to see how a contact is engaging with campaigns, you have to check both systems separately.
Another issue is email verification. Snov verifies email addresses, but that verification status doesn't automatically flow to your CRM. You end up with unverified emails in your CRM even after Snov has verified them.
How Lumenbase handles Snov.io integration
Lumenbase connects to Snov.io via API and syncs prospect list membership, campaign status, and engagement metrics. Contacts show their Snov campaign status directly in the CRM, and you can see which prospect lists they're in.
The integration also provides automation triggers based on Snov events. When someone opens an email, clicks a link, replies, or unsubscribes, you can trigger automations in your CRM, like creating tasks, updating contact status, or sending notifications.
Campaign performance metrics sync to the CRM as well. You can see open rates, click rates, reply rates, and bounce rates for campaigns, which helps you understand which campaigns are working best.
Setting up Snov.io integration
Get your Snov API credentials
Settings → API. Generate an API key if you don't have one. You need the Client ID and Client Secret for OAuth authentication.Connect in Lumenbase
Company Settings → Integrations → Snov.io. Enter your API credentials, then click Connect. Lumenbase authenticates with Snov and verifies permissions.Configure sync settings
- Prospect list membership: Which contacts are in which Snov lists
- Campaign status: Active, replied, bounced, unsubscribed, completed
- Engagement metrics: Open rates, click rates, reply rates, bounce rates
- Email verification: Verification status from Snov
Enable automations (optional)
Exporting contacts to Snov.io (outgoing sync)
Outgoing sync means sending CRM contacts to Snov.io as Prospects. On Snov's side, prospects must belong to a list. You cannot place prospects freely without a list. Snov's API only supports Add prospect to list (with a required list ID).
How is the list created? Either (1) create it in Snov.io (Lists, or prospect lists, in the Snov app), or (2) from Lumenbase: when you enroll contacts in a Snov sequence and you have no list yet, useCreate new Snov list in the Enroll dialog. Lumenbase creates the list via API and then adds your contacts to it.
Lists in Snov are prospect collections; Campaigns are drip email sequences. From a list in Lumenbase you can link a Snov List or Campaign (sequence mode). New contacts added to that list are then automatically enrolled in Snov. You can also use Enroll in sequence and pick a Snov List or Campaign to export selected contacts. Sync direction must be Push or Both in Snov integration settings for enrollment to work; Pull only disables exporting and creating lists.
How prospect list syncing works
Contact matching
Lumenbase matches contacts between Snov and your CRM by email address. When a contact joins a Snov prospect list, Lumenbase finds the matching contact in your CRM and updates their Snov list membership.
Campaign status tracking
Each contact shows their current Snov campaign status: active, replied, bounced, unsubscribed, or completed. This appears in the contact record and can be used in filters and automations.
List membership
Contacts show which Snov prospect lists they're in. This appears as tags or a list in the contact record, so you can see all lists a contact is part of at a glance.
Email verification
Snov.io can verify email addresses, and that verification status can sync to your CRM. This helps you:
- Identify invalid email addresses before sending campaigns
- Update contact email status automatically
- Filter contacts by verification status
- Improve email deliverability by focusing on verified addresses
Email verification can be triggered manually or automatically when contacts are added to Snov lists. The verification status appears in the contact record.
Automation triggers
Snov events can trigger automations in your CRM. Available triggers include:
- Email opened: When a prospect opens a campaign email
- Link clicked: When a prospect clicks a link in a campaign email
- Reply received: When a prospect replies to a campaign email
- Email bounced: When a campaign email bounces
- Contact unsubscribed: When a contact unsubscribes from campaigns
- Campaign completed: When a contact completes a campaign
- Campaign started: When a contact is added to a campaign
Use these triggers to create tasks, update contact status, send Slack notifications (requires the Slack integration), or perform other actions in your CRM based on Snov engagement.
Practical use cases
Campaign performance tracking
Track which prospects are in Snov campaigns and how they're engaging. See campaign status directly in your CRM, so you know when to follow up or when someone has replied.
Automated follow-up
Create automations that trigger when someone replies to a Snov campaign. For example, automatically create a task for the sales rep or update contact status when engagement is detected.
Email list hygiene
Use Snov email verification to keep your contact database clean. Automatically flag or remove invalid email addresses based on Snov verification results.
Common mistakes and misunderstandings
Expecting real-time sync
Snov data syncs periodically, not in real-time. There's usually a delay of a few minutes between when something happens in Snov and when it appears in your CRM. For critical events, use automation webhooks if available.
Contact matching issues
Contacts are matched by email address. If a prospect in Snov uses a different email than in your CRM, they won't match automatically. Make sure email addresses are consistent between systems for best results.
API access requirements
The integration requires API access in Snov.io. Some Snov plans don't include API access, so check your plan before setting up the integration. You may need to upgrade your Snov plan to use the integration.
Campaign data limitations
Some campaign-level metrics require additional API calls and may not sync automatically. Contact-level status and list membership syncs, but detailed campaign analytics may need to be viewed in Snov directly.
Troubleshooting
Connection fails
- Verify your API credentials (Client ID and Client Secret) are correct
- Check that your Snov plan includes API access
- Ensure the API credentials have the necessary permissions
- Try regenerating the API credentials in Snov and reconnecting
Contacts not syncing
- Check that contacts have matching email addresses in both systems
- Verify sync is enabled in integration settings
- Check the last sync timestamp. Trigger a manual sync if needed
- Review Snov API rate limits. Too many requests may cause delays
Automations not triggering
If automation triggers aren't working, verify that automation triggers are enabled in integration settings. Also check that the automation conditions match the Snov events you're expecting.
