1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Mailchimp and SuiteDash Integration

To integrate Mailchimp with SuiteDash, you will use Pabbly Connect. Begin by signing in to your Pabbly Connect account. Once logged in, you will see a dashboard with various applications available for integration.

Click on the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’ to initiate a new workflow. Name your workflow something descriptive, such as ‘Create SuiteDash Contacts for Mailchimp Subscribers,’ and click on ‘Create’ to proceed. This will set up a blank workflow where you can define the trigger and action for your integration.

2. Defining the Trigger Event in Pabbly Connect

The next step is to define the trigger event that will initiate the workflow. In this case, the trigger will be a new subscriber in Mailchimp. Open the trigger module and select ‘Mailchimp’ from the list of applications.

• Select ‘New Subscriber’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
• Navigate to your Mailchimp account, go to the audience settings, and find the webhooks option.
• Create a new webhook and paste the copied URL, ensuring to select the new subscriber event.

After saving the webhook, you will have established a connection between Pabbly Connect and Mailchimp, allowing Pabbly Connect to listen for new subscriber events.

3. Capturing Subscriber Data from Mailchimp

Once the webhook is set up, you need to capture the data from the new subscriber. To do this, click on the button in Pabbly Connect to re-capture the webhook response. This will allow Pabbly Connect to receive data from Mailchimp whenever a new subscriber is added.

Add a new subscriber in Mailchimp by going to the audience dashboard and selecting ‘Add Contacts’ followed by ‘Add a Subscriber.’ Fill in the required details, such as email address, first name, and last name. After subscribing, this data will be sent back to Pabbly Connect as a webhook response.

4. Setting Up the Action to Create Contacts in SuiteDash

With the subscriber data captured, the next step is to set up the action that will create a contact in SuiteDash. In Pabbly Connect, add an action step and select ‘SuiteDash’ as the application.

• Choose ‘Create Contact’ as the action event.
• Connect your SuiteDash account to Pabbly Connect by entering your Pabbly ID and secret key.
• Map the fields from the Mailchimp subscriber data to the corresponding fields in SuiteDash.

After mapping the necessary fields like first name, last name, email address, and phone number, save the action step. This will ensure that every time a new subscriber is added in Mailchimp, a corresponding contact is created in SuiteDash automatically.

5. Testing and Verifying the Integration

After setting up the action, it’s crucial to test the integration to ensure everything functions correctly. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ in Pabbly Connect. This will send the mapped data to SuiteDash and create a new contact based on the subscriber details.

Log in to your SuiteDash account and navigate to the CRM section to verify that the new contact has been created successfully. You should see the contact with the same details as the subscriber you added in Mailchimp, confirming that the integration works seamlessly.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we explored how to automate the creation of SuiteDash contacts whenever new Mailchimp subscribers are added using Pabbly Connect. This integration streamlines the process, saving you time and effort by eliminating manual data entry.
