Hi guys,

I have been trying for some time now to use Merge Tag which is passed to mailchimp through a custom zapping event. 

 

You can see here how it looks on the Mail and the Zap integration: 

 

Thank you for your help!

In Mailchimp try this: {{PriceOfferSent.price}}

Hey there, @MisterCar! 👋

Were you able to get things working by updating the tag in Mailchimp as Troy suggested?

I have a similar issue. I have a ZAP that creates a custom discount code. And i’d like that discount code to be displayed on the email. 

In mailchimp I’ve used both : *|ambassador_signup:DISCOUNT|* and {{ambassador_signup:DISCOUNT}}

and neither work. Am I doing something wrong?

How does it work if we have data that comes from the created custom event in zapier?

Hi there @Pierre RAS,

I’m so sorry for the delayed response here.

I’m not really familiar with Mailchimp’s “Create Custom Event” action. However, I found this help article from Mailchimp on how to use that action.

You can learn more about that here: https://mailchimp.com/help/use-events-behavioral-targeting/

Hopefully, this helps.
