    Article Summary

    Mailchimp is an all-in-one marketing platform that enables businesses to manage email marketing campaigns, design and send emails, and track their performance. It also offers additional features such as audience segmentation, automation, and reporting to help businesses build and maintain effective marketing strategies and engage with their audience more effectively.

    For all available metrics and attributes, please refer to our website.

    All available endpoints from the MailChimp API are listed here.

    Authorize

    2. Yo will be asked to provide:
      1. Username
      2. API Key

    You can create an API key and find DC in your MailChimp account.

    Troubleshooting

    Data Preview Unavailable

    If there is no data preview after clicking on Test Data, there might be a problem with your source configuration. The most common causes are:

    • Date range: Try a smaller date range. You can load the rest of your data afterward through our manual data load function.
    • Invalid metrics, attributes, or breakdowns: You may not have any data for the selected metrics, attributes, or breakdowns.
    • Incompatible combination of metrics, attributes, or breakdowns: The combination you have selected cannot be queried together. Please refer to the service's documentation to view a full list of metrics that can be included in the same source.

    Authorization Error

    When authorizing your service and creating your source, make sure that you DC matches the on in your MailChimp, otherwise you might get the following error: INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR.

    If you are not sure where to find the DC, please see this section.
