Steps
Create a Custom Integration in Ghost Admin (Settings > Integrations) to get an Admin API key, then sign a short-lived JWT (5-minute expiry, HS256, aud: /admin/) for the Authorization: Ghost <token> header
Create individual members with POST /ghost/api/admin/members/, supplying email plus optional name, note, and labels
For bulk import, use the members CSV upload flow (Settings > Members > Import in the dashboard, or the corresponding upload endpoint) with field mappings
When importing paid members, set stripe_customer_id to an existing Stripe customer id, or "auto" to have Ghost look one up by email on the connected Stripe account
Control default newsletter subscription behavior with a subscribed_to_emails true/false flag during import
Known gotchas
CSV import does not fire member.added or member.edited webhooks — build a separate reconciliation path if downstream systems need to react to imported members
Admin API JWTs expire after 5 minutes and must be freshly signed per session — you cannot reuse a long-lived token
stripe_customer_id: "auto" only works against a Stripe account already connected to that specific Ghost site
