Mailchimp is a great email marketing tool and so it is common for systems to need to integrate with it in order to send information about new users.
If you need to generate an API Key in Mailchimp, use the steps below:
- Using the desired account, log in at: https://login.mailchimp.com/ . Note: Your username is probably not your e-mail, we usually waste a lot of time in this part trying to access it through an e-mail
- Click on your avatar which should be located in the lower-left corner, then “Account”
- In the “Extras” menu, click on API Keys
- Below there will be a section related to API Keys. Click on “Create a Key”
- Then, just copy the generated API Key and send it!
The API Key makes the connection between Mailchimp and the system. But and now? Where will the data go?
Finding the Audience Code
Most likely, you will need the code of the audience to which the system will send the data. You can have multiple audiences and that’s why it’s important to know how to identify and send which audience should be receiving the data:
- Using the desired account, log in at: https://login.mailchimp.com/ . Note: Your username is probably not your e-mail, we usually waste a lot of time in this part trying to access it through an e-mail
- On the side menu, click on “Audience”
- Inside the “Manage Audience” dropdown, click on “Settings”
Click on “Audience name and default”
Then, just copy the code and send it to us! This code contains letters and numbers
