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 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.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
type	`type`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`regularplaintextabsplitrssvariate`
status	`status`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu:`createdsent`

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:

Python Overview#

Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.

This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.

Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:

Action Code#

import python from "../../python.app.mjs";

export default {
  name: "Run Python Code",
  version: "0.0.2",
  key: "python-run-python-code",
  description: "Write Python and use any of the 350k+ PyPi packages available. Refer to the [Pipedream Python docs](https://pipedream.com/docs/code/python) to learn more.",
