For this integration, select ‘Zoho Forms’ as the trigger application and choose ‘New Form Submission’ as the trigger event. This setup will ensure that every time a new form is submitted in Zoho Forms, it will trigger the workflow.

3. Setting Up Zoho Forms Trigger in Pabbly Connect

Now, it’s time to configure the Zoho Forms trigger in Pabbly Connect. You will need to copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect and paste it into your Zoho Forms account.

To do this, log in to your Zoho Forms account, navigate to the form you want to integrate, and find the settings for webhooks. Paste the copied URL into the webhook settings and save the changes. This step connects your Zoho Forms with Pabbly Connect, allowing data to flow.

4. Testing the Integration Between Zoho Forms and Mailchimp

After setting up the webhook, it’s crucial to test the integration. Go back to Pabbly Connect and perform a test submission on your Zoho Form. This will send a sample response to Pabbly Connect.

• Submit a test entry in your Zoho Form.
• Check Pabbly Connect to see if the response is captured.
• Ensure the data matches what you submitted.

If the response is captured successfully, you are now ready to set up the action step for Mailchimp.

5. Creating a Mailchimp Member from Zoho Forms Submission

The final step is to configure the action that creates a new member in Mailchimp. In Pabbly Connect, select ‘Mailchimp’ as the action application and choose ‘Add/Update Subscriber’ as the action event.

In this step, you will need to map the fields from your Zoho Forms response to the corresponding Mailchimp fields. This includes mapping the email address, first name, and last name to ensure accurate data transfer.

Once you have completed the mapping, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button to confirm that a new member is created in your Mailchimp account. You can verify this by checking your Mailchimp contacts list.
