Finding your Mailchimp API Code

This initial section is done within your Mailchimp account

To integrate Profiler with Mailchimp we need to tell Profiler the Mailchimp API code. To do this in Mailchimp login via the mailchimp website.

Click your name at the base of the screen on the bottom left hand side and go to Accounts and Billing – once you are in that section click Extras and click API Keys

You may see any existing keys you have (if any) and click on the Create a Key button

After clicking Create A Key – Mailchimp will refresh and update you with the latest keys available – with the one you have created most recently at the top.

In the API Key Column for this key (example screenshot below), highlight and copy the Key generated – this is the key needed to link the two platforms.

You can then paste this key into Profiler under Setup > Integration > Email Provider Setup and in in the Mailchimp Section you can add the API key.

If Profiler Support is doing your integration – you can provide this key to them – this is the required information for the link.

Profiler will sync nearly instantly on the Profiler to Mailchimp direction, and with data/mailings sent from Mailchimp, it may take an hour or two for the activity to be pulled and processed.
