Chrome Extension
The GroupCRM Chrome extension connects your browser to Facebook so member requests sync to your dashboard and automation rules can run.
Install
- Go to app.groupcrm.co and sign in
- During onboarding, click the link to the Chrome Web Store
- Click Add to Chrome and confirm
- Pin the extension: click the puzzle icon in Chrome's toolbar, then pin GroupCRM
How it works
The extension runs silently in the background while you are logged into Facebook in Chrome. It:
- Detects pending member requests in groups you have enabled
- Syncs member data (name, profile, membership answers) to GroupCRM
- Processes auto-approve and auto-decline rules on your behalf
GroupCRM cannot sync or automate without the extension active.
Requirements
- Google Chrome: other Chromium browsers (Edge, Brave) may work but are not officially supported
- Logged into Facebook in the same Chrome profile
- Chrome must stay open: closing Chrome stops sync until you reopen it
Troubleshooting
