I am trying to create a Zap that adds a tag to user in MailChimp a day before a Google Calendar event (which will then kick off a MailChimp journey).

I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong or how to set up a Zap to add a MailChimp tag a 1 day or 1 hour before an event.

Hi ​@ashland 

Help links for using GCal in Zaps: https://zapier.com/apps/google-calendar/integrations#help

These cover how to test for GCal Events.

 


Hi there ​@ashland 👋

Just came across this and wanted to check how things are going. Did the guides Troy shared help you get the correct test event loaded?

Want to make sure your Zap is up and running, so please keep us posted on how it’s going!


Seems to be working! Any issues I have had since then have been due to user error or bad testing my part. 🙂 Thanks for checking in!


Thanks for the update, ​@ashland! So pleased to hear it’s all sorted. Shout out to ​@Troy Tessalone for pointing you in the right direction 🙌

Feel free to reach back out if we can help with anything else. In the meantime, happy Zapping! ⚡️
