Are Customer Journey Actions in Mailchimp Unsupported?

Hi,
We are seeking to pull information from Mailchimp (like e-mail opens, cliks, etc) to Pipedrive in order to update a deal/contact with this data.

However all the e-mails I want to pull acitivity data from are built in the new Customer Journey builder in Mailchimp. Whenever I try to set up the zap, I can only pull single campaigns, or find automations built in the Classic builder. Does that mean Customer Journeys in Mailchimp are not supported for zaps?

 

And has anyone then found a workaround to pass email activity/engagement data to a CRM (Pipedrive)? when the e-mails are all placed in the Customer JOurney builder?

Thanks in advance

Hi @Troy Tessalone 

Thanks for the reply - not quite sure if it answers my question though.

Does that mean that automations bullt in the new journey builder is NOT supported?

And moreovrer, do you then suggest I use a webhook to pull in the enagement data i Pipedrive instead?

 

Thanks,

@Novicell 

There are available Mailchimp Zap triggers for these:

  • Link Clicked
  • Email Opened

 

Have you tried configuring and testing Zaps with these Mailchimp Zap triggers?

Hello! I am also unable to use the Link Clicked trigger with emails built in Customer Journey’s. Only classic automations are showing up. Is this on the feature list? Any workarounds? Thanks!

Hi there @Friday,

Unfortunately, emails built in Customer Journey is not supported when using the Link Clicked trigger in Mailchimp. A possible workaround is to build a journey that ends in a webhook call:

Then you can use that journey to kick off a Webhooks by Zapier trigger in Zapier.

Hopefully, this helps.

Hi, I’ve troubles with this same issue and I don't see how to solve this problem.


I've got a customer journey and I want to add a tag in Mailchimp to someone who clicks on a specific link in any email of this journey (this link is the same in the whole journey). In Mailchimp this is not possible, so I want to use Zap for this.

How could I use a webhook for this?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!
