Pipelines - Mailchimp Connection Amazing
I just have to share something, not a question on this one.... I had to use Pipelines yesterday for the first time to build an integration with Mailchimp and it was incredible. We needed to issue a ...

Ivan, thank you for posting your positive note on Pipelines. I am a very novice Quickbase user and also want to attempt to use the Pipeline Feature to integrate Quickbase data to Mailchimp, but when I attempt to create a Pipeline, Mailchimp appears as a disconnected channel, and I have no idea how to turn it on, or connect it? Quickbase says to have Admin turn it on.... I'm the Admin on our account.
Any note or tip is appreciated.

- Unfortunately I do not remember the exact steps. But if I recall I believe when I was working with the pipeline it asked me to authenticate my mailchimp account to activate it.
But I would open a support ticket. I find quick base support not so great for advanced stuff (community is better for that) but they are great for that easy type of stuff

------------------------------- Thanks for the reply. I was able to figure out how to turn on the Channel (MailChimp), but not much luck on working through the intricate details of making it work. My immediate need was to get a newsletter out to my members and I thought, cool, an automation that might save me time (which might be true over time), but for my immediate need, it was faster to just merge a csv file.
cheers, stay safe during these times.

------------------------------- Glad to hear you got it working! I built my first one and realized it was totally wrong lol. Had to do a little tinkering but once I got it, I was able to fly through creating another one.... Now it auto adds every contact to mailchimp without users even knowing based on their category (if they are a client, architect, etc. which are targeted groups for us).
I would recommend exploring it more even if done with it as they are pretty powerful.
