Mailchimp Overview#

The Mailchimp API taps into the heart of your email marketing efforts, allowing you to manage subscribers, campaigns, and reports. With the API, you can automate tasks like syncing subscriber lists, segmenting contacts based on behavior, and personalizing email content to match user profiles. It's a powerful tool for marketers looking to fine-tune their email strategy and maximize engagement.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/http-based.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "mailchimp-new-or-updated-subscriber",
  name: "New or Updated Subscriber (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event when a subscriber is added or updated (on profile, or email address change) in an audience list.",

      return [
        "subscribe",
        "profile",
        "upemail",
        "unsubscribe",
        "cleaned",
      ];
    },
    generateMeta(eventPayload) {
      const ts = Date.parse(eventPayload.fired_at);
      if (!this.getEventTypes().includes(eventPayload.type)) {
        console.log("Unexpected trigger found, skipping emit");
        return;
      }
      const summary = `New event "${eventPayload.type}" occurred`;
      return {
        id: eventPayload["data[id]"],
        summary,
        ts,
      };
    },
  },
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Mailchimp	`mailchimp`	`app`	This component uses the Mailchimp app.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Audience List Id	`listId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Trigger on subscriber actions?	`triggeredByUser`	`boolean`	If set to true, events will be emitted on subscriber-initiated actions.
Trigger on actions by Mailchimp admin?	`triggeredByAdmin`	`boolean`	If set to true, events will be emitted on admin-initiated actions in the web interface.
Trigger via actions on the API?	`triggeredByApi`	`boolean`	If set to true, events will be emitted on actions initiated via the API.

Trigger Authentication#

Mailchimp uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Mailchimp account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Mailchimp and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Mailchimp API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

AWS Overview#

The AWS API unlocks endless possibilities for automation with Pipedream. With this powerful combo, you can manage your AWS services and resources, automate deployment workflows, process data, and react to events across your AWS infrastructure. Pipedream offers a serverless platform for creating workflows triggered by various events that can execute AWS SDK functions, making it an efficient tool to integrate, automate, and orchestrate tasks across AWS services and other apps.

Detail, DetailType, and Source are required for EventBridge to successfully send an event to an event bus.

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
AWS	`aws`	`app`	This component uses the AWS app.
AWS Region	`region`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Event Bus Name	`eventBusName`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Event data	`eventData`	`object`	A JSON object that will be sent as an event
Detail Type	`detailType`	`string`	Free-form string, with a maximum of 128 characters, used to decide what fields to expect in the event detail. Detail, DetailType, and Source are required for EventBridge to successfully send an event to an event bus. If you include event entries in a request that does not include each of those properties, EventBridge fails that entry. If you submit a request in which none of the entries have each of these properties, EventBridge fails the entire request.

Action Authentication#

AWS uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your AWS account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to AWS APIs in both code and no-code steps.

Follow the AWS Instructions for creating an IAM user with an associated access and secret key.

As a best practice, attach the minimum set of IAM permissions necessary to perform the specific task in Pipedream. If your workflow only needs to perform a single API call, you should create a user and associate an IAM group / policy with permission to do only that task. You can create as many linked AWS accounts in Pipedream as you'd like.

Enter your access and secret key below.
