How to automatically add logged-in users to a Mailchimp list when they request a notification for a coming soon product Answered

(Originally posted by Jamie in the community Slack)

Hey all! just had a quick question. We want to set up a coming soon function that when a logged-in user clicks ‘notify me’ it’ll automatically add them to a Mailchimp mailing list with the email from their account.

I initially thought zapier but I can’t seem to figure out a way to trigger it by simply clicking on a link. Any ideas?

    What if you made a form with a hidden email field that is pre-populated with their email and style the submit button to look like a link?

    Another solution if you’re still on the lookout is to…

    1. Log into Mailchimp
    2. Copy the HTML code for one of their simple mail signup forms & paste it into your site.
    3. Change the email input to type="hidden" and add the data-ms-member="email" attribute.
    4. Test 🤞 

    I haven’t tested it, but this should have a similar effect without needing Zapier in the middle 🎉

    You can export you member base as CSV in Memberstack dashboard and import them into mailchimp. New user signups can be automated using Make scenario to keep your MS members in sync with Mailchimp
