Summary: This guide provides straightforward instructions for linking your active CCLI SongSelect® account to your Tithely account via the Extensions menu, enabling you to import lyrics and chord charts directly into your Song Library and optionally activate Auto Reporting for simplified CCLI compliance.

Prerequisites

  • You must have an Active ChMS account (Tithely Church Management Software).
  • You must have an Active CCLI account (you can create one as part of the integration process).
  • You must have the Worship Team Tools Extension. 

Step-by-Step Instructions

1.  Log in to your Tithely account.

2.  Select the Gear Icon.   

3.  Scroll down to Extensions.

6.  Click the Link button on the banner that appears at the top of your Song Library.

  1. Confirm the success screen. [SongSelect® is now linked to your Tithely account.]

Troubleshooting & FAQs

  • What is Auto Reporting? Auto Reporting automatically sends reports of music usage to CCLI for songs used in services that have passed, helping your church stay compliant with licensing requirements.
  • Can I still import songs if I don't have a CCLI account? You can still add songs manually to your library, but you cannot import lyrics and chord charts directly from SongSelect without an active CCLI account.
  • How often does CCLI Auto Reporting run? The system generally checks and reports songs automatically after the service date has passed (e.g., 7 days after the event).
