Send multiple Subscribers from json without looping

Hello together

I've been trying to send multiple email recipients from a webhook to Mailchimp for a few hours.

In the webhook json all recipients are in a separate line.

I can't find a way to send multiple recipients to Mailchimp without looping, because in Zapier action "4. Add/Update Subscriber in Mailchimp" all recipients are packed into one data field.

Is there a way to send multiple recipients in one task?

Thank you for your feedback.

Hi @MDAS 

Please post screenshots with how your Zap steps are configured and example data that you are working with in order for us to have more context, thanks.

 

Have you tried using the Looping app in the Zap: https://zapier.com/apps/looping/integrations

 

Is there a way to send multiple recipients in one task?

Yes, but this would require using the Mailchimp API: https://mailchimp.com/developer/marketing/docs/fundamentals/

Hi @Troy Tessalone 

Thanks for your reply.

Yes. That would work. But my problem then is that the export will be very difficult to configure in our software. My idea was to send one per week to all recipients and all updates will be in Mailchimp. Without selecting the updated record in our software (which is difficult in this case).

The next thing is, if I use looping, it will cost a lot of tasks each time.

I thought I can send all recipients in one batch.

Okay if i understand you correctly → Mailchimp API or Looping? Without these 2 Options its not possible?

Thank you in advance and have a nice day!

In general, most Zap app triggers/actions are configured to work on a per record basis.

To do advanced or bulk behavior, that usually involves Code or APIs.

i understand. Thank you!
