Does anyone have a suggest for building a Zap that will detected hard bounce email from Mailchimp campaigns?

I can batch download bounces but really need to find a way to detect permanent bounced emails in realtime. 

Thoughts appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi @Jay Graves 

Try using the Webhooks app as the trigger for your Zap. (Catch Hook)

In Mailchimp, you can set the Webhook notification for hard bounces here: Audience > Settings > Webhooks

Mailchimp API Webhooks: https://mailchimp.com/developer/transactional/docs/webhooks/

NOTE: It may be helpful to validate emails using a validation service (e.g. NeverBounce - https://zapier.com/apps/neverbounce/integrations#triggers-and-actions) before sending to new email addresses to avoid hard bounces and keep your deliverability reputation up.
