Teachable Zap not seeing "Product ID" data (needed for correct TAG in Mailchimp)


I’m selling a Teachable Program with 2 “price tiers” each requiring different tags in Mailchimp (so I can send different welcome emails to each tag). The ZAP filter allows me to select “OBJECT PRODUCT ID” (which should reflect the price tier), but when the data comes in PRODUCT ID doesn’t seem to be collected by the ZAP, so the distinction never gets made and the proper tags don’t happen. Help!

Hi @seekingbryan ,

Glad you were able to work with support to reach a resolution here!

By using the trigger “New Sale,” vs “New Enrollment” the Product ID is pulled over, enabling the user to discern between price tiers (Product ID).

Hi @seekingbryan 

I'm going to flag this post for the Zapier Community Team. They should have more insight on this and can escalate to the support team if needed.

Sit tight, and someone will contact you soon.

Yes, that was KEY … I was using “NEW ENROLLMENT” trigger, which did NOT pull in PRODUCT ID (price tier). I switched to “NEW SALE” as trigger, which does pull that in. Only there is a trade-off: now when I enroll a new student through the back-end on teachable, administratively, the ZAP won’t get triggered and I’ll have to now also add them manually to Mailchimp/Active Campaign (I use both). But, that will be a rare exception.
