Lu.ma integration
Lu.ma for the RSVP. Highbar for everything after.
Guests land on your Highbar attendee list as they register in Lu.ma, with their company, job title and socials filled in. No CSV exports, no re-uploads the night before.
- Brings in
- Approved guests and their profile details
- Stays in sync
- As soon as someone registers
- To connect
- A Lu.ma API key, on Lu.ma Plus
- Direction
- One way. Highbar never changes your Lu.ma event or guests.
What syncs
From RSVP to app login, with nothing in between.
Every guest becomes one attendee, matched by email, so anyone already on your list is updated rather than added twice.

How it works
Connected from one panel.
Open Integrations from your event's Content or Access page. Everything below happens there.
- 1
Paste your API key
It's in your Lu.ma account settings, under API Keys. API access needs a Lu.ma Plus subscription.
- 2
Pick the event
See how many guests are approved, pending and declined, with a preview of the first few, before anything comes across.

Connect
Click Connect Event. Every approved guest is imported straight away.
- 4
Stay in sync
New and updated registrations reach your attendee list as they happen. Sync now runs a full refresh whenever you want one.
Your call
Lu.ma keeps the RSVP. You keep the list.
No duplicates
Guests are matched by email. Anyone already on your list is updated and tagged with Lu.ma as a source, not added twice.
Removals stick
Remove someone from your attendee list and they stay removed, even while they're still registered in Lu.ma.
Their profile, their edits
Once an attendee completes their own profile in the app, Lu.ma stops updating it.
Pause anytime
Turn auto-sync off to pause. Turn it back on and Highbar catches up on anything it missed.
Sync on demand
Sync now pulls every guest again, straight away, even while auto-sync is paused.
Disconnect cleanly
Syncing stops and everyone already synced stays on your list. Connect again whenever you like.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a paid Lu.ma plan?
Yes. The integration uses Lu.ma's API, which needs a Lu.ma Plus subscription. Your API key is in your Lu.ma account settings, under API Keys.
How fast do new registrations show up?
As they happen. Lu.ma tells Highbar about each new or updated registration, so guests land on your attendee list in real time. Sync now is there if you ever want a full refresh.
Which guests come across?
Approved guests with an email address. Each one becomes an attendee who can log in to your app, with their name, company, job title, phone and social profiles from Lu.ma.
Does Highbar change anything in Lu.ma?
No. Highbar reads your events and guests and never edits them. Lu.ma stays where people register.
Can I connect more than one Lu.ma event?
Each Highbar event connects to one Lu.ma event, and to one integration at a time. Running a series? Connect each event to its own Lu.ma event.
What happens if I disconnect?
Syncing stops, and every attendee already synced stays on your list. You can connect again anytime.
