How to Connect Group Collector with AWeber

If you want your Facebook group members to be automatically added to your AWeber email list, you need to connect AWeber as an autoresponder inside Group Collector.

This integration ensures that every approved group member is captured by Group Collector, saved in Google Sheets, added to AWeber, and ready for email campaigns or automations.

To complete this integration, you will need:

  • AWeber Access Token (fetched automatically)
  • AWeber Unique List ID

This guide will show you how to get both.

Before you start, make sure you have:

  • An active AWeber account
  • A list created inside AWeber
  • Your Facebook group is connected to Group Collector
  • Membership questions already set up

Step 1: Find Your AWeber Unique List ID

Group Collector requires the Unique List ID, not the list name.

  1. Log in to your AWeber dashboard.

  2. Look at the left panel. Under List Options, click List Settings.
