1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Integration

To start integrating Mailchimp with Mailercloud, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Log in to your Pabbly Connect account or create a new account if you haven’t done so already. Pabbly Connect allows you to automate workflows without any coding knowledge.

After logging in, you will be directed to the dashboard. Here, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to begin setting up your automation. Name your workflow something descriptive, such as ‘Add Mailchimp Subscriber as a New Contact in Mailercloud’. Once named, click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

2. Trigger Setup with Mailchimp in Pabbly Connect

The next step involves setting up the trigger in Pabbly Connect. Choose Mailchimp as your trigger application. This triggers the workflow whenever a new subscriber is added in Mailchimp. Select the ‘New Subscriber’ event from the list of trigger events.

• Select Mailchimp from the trigger application options.
• Choose ‘New Subscriber’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

Now, navigate to your Mailchimp account and go to the audience dashboard. Click on ‘Manage Audience’ and then ‘Settings’. Here, find the ‘Webhooks’ option to set up a new webhook. Paste the copied webhook URL and select the option to send updates when a new subscriber is added. Save your changes to activate the webhook.

3. Recapturing the Webhook Response in Pabbly Connect

After setting up the webhook, you need to recapture the webhook response in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Recapture Webhook Response’ button. This action allows Pabbly Connect to listen for any new subscriber data coming from Mailchimp.

To test this, create a new subscriber using a Mailchimp signup form. Fill in the details and submit the form. Once you have submitted the subscriber information, return to Pabbly Connect and check if the data has been captured. You should see the subscriber’s details such as name and email address reflected in the response.

4. Action Setup to Add Contacts in Mailercloud

Now that you have captured the subscriber data, the next step is to set up the action in Pabbly Connect. Search for Mailercloud as the action application. Select the action event as ‘Add Contact to List’. This action will automatically add the Mailchimp subscriber to your specified Mailercloud list.

• Choose Mailercloud from the action application options.
• Select ‘Add Contact to List’ as the action event.
• Connect your Mailercloud account using the API key.

Once connected, select the Mailercloud list where you want to add the new contacts. Map the fields from the Mailchimp subscriber data to the corresponding fields in Mailercloud, such as email address, first name, and last name. After mapping, save the action and test the connection to ensure everything is working correctly.

5. Testing and Finalizing the Integration

To finalize the integration using Pabbly Connect, perform a test to ensure that the subscriber is added correctly to Mailercloud. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify that the data is sent correctly. You should see a confirmation that the new contact has been added successfully.

Check your Mailercloud list to confirm that the new subscriber appears there. If everything is set up correctly, you will see the subscriber’s details populated in the list. This integration allows for seamless automation, meaning you won’t need to manually add subscribers from Mailchimp to Mailercloud again.
