1. Access Pabbly Form Builder for Integration

To create a Mailchimp subscriber on form submission, first access Pabbly Form Builder. Visit the Pabbly website and sign in to your account. If you are a new user, sign up for a free account which allows you to create 100 tasks monthly.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard. Here, you can find all the Pabbly applications. Click on Pabbly Form Builder to start creating your form. This platform will facilitate the entire integration process with Mailchimp.

2. Create a Webhook in Pabbly Form Builder

Next, you need to create a webhook using Pabbly Form Builder. Start by creating a new workflow that will connect the form submission to Mailchimp. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name it appropriately.

• Select the trigger application as Pabbly Connect.
• Choose the trigger event as ‘Catch Webhook’.

Copy the generated webhook URL. This URL will be used in your Pabbly Form Builder form to send data upon submission. Make sure to save the workflow once you have set it up.

3. Connect Pabbly Form Builder to Mailchimp

Now, it’s time to connect Pabbly Form Builder to Mailchimp. Open your form in the Pabbly Form Builder and navigate to the integration settings. Locate the option to add a webhook and paste the copied webhook URL into the designated field.

After this, go back to Pabbly Form Builder and set up the form fields. Ensure that you include all necessary fields such as first name, last name, email, and phone number. This data will be sent to Mailchimp when a form submission occurs.

4. Map Fields and Test the Integration

In this step, you will map the fields from Pabbly Form Builder to the corresponding fields in Mailchimp. Go back to your Pabbly Connect workflow and select Mailchimp as the action application. Choose the action event as ‘Add New Member’.

• Select the audience list in Mailchimp where subscribers will be added.
• Map the fields from your form to Mailchimp, such as email address, first name, and last name.

After mapping, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure that the integration works correctly. Check your Mailchimp account to see if the subscriber was created successfully.

5. Finalize and Activate the Integration

Finally, review your workflow in Pabbly Form Builder and ensure all details are correct. Activate the workflow to enable the integration. This means every time someone submits the form, a new subscriber will automatically be created in Mailchimp.

To test, fill out the form with dummy data and submit it. Verify that the new subscriber appears in your Mailchimp audience list. This automation significantly streamlines your subscriber management process.

Conclusion

Integrating Mailchimp with Pabbly Form Builder allows you to automate subscriber creation seamlessly. By following these steps, you can enhance your email marketing efforts efficiently.
