Connecting Mailchimp
- Log in and navigate to the Settings section of your Avid platform
- Click 'Email Marketing' in the Avid AI Integration Checklist, 'Connect your Email Marketing' under Connect your Email Marketing System, or the Add button and 'System'
- Find Mailchimp in the listed tiles
- Click 'Authenticate'
- Use your Mailchimp login and Password (if your are already logged in, it will ask you to choose an account)
- Approve the authentication instructions allowing Avid access and requests for the API (or, if you don't have the right authorization, invite a teammate to join Avid)
- You're done for now
Go explore benchmarks and wait for the data to backfill (you can check back in about 24 hours). You will receive a reminder from Avid to customize any column mapping and approve default settings at that time. Connecting an email system will also allow you to push data from your CRM through segments in the Pathways menu if you have chosen to use that feature in Avid.
