Frequently Asked Questions about Google Contacts + Mailchimp integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Contacts and Mailchimp
How do I connect Google Contacts with Mailchimp?
You can connect Google Contacts with Mailchimp using our integration platform. First, you'll need to authenticate both your Google and Mailchimp accounts in our system. Then, set up a trigger, such as 'New Contact' in Google Contacts, and an action, like 'Add/Update Subscriber' in Mailchimp.
Can I automatically sync new contacts from Google Contacts to a specific Mailchimp list?
Yes, you can automatically sync new contacts from Google Contacts to a specific list in Mailchimp. When setting up the integration, choose the 'New Contact' trigger in Google Contacts and select the desired list when setting the 'Add/Update Subscriber' action in Mailchimp.
What happens if I delete a contact from Google Contacts? Will it be removed from Mailchimp as well?
Our current integration triggers on new or updated contacts in Google Contacts but does not support automatic deletion of contacts from Mailchimp when they are deleted in Google Contacts.
Is it possible to update existing subscribers on my Mailchimp list through this integration?
Yes, you can update existing subscribers in your Mailchimp list through this integration. When there's an update on a contact's information in Google Contacts, our integration can reflect these changes in your selected Mailchimp subscriber list.
Are there any limits on how many contacts I can sync at one time between Google Contacts and Mailchimp?
While our platform handles synchronization efficiently, limits may depend on your plan’s restrictions with both Google and Mailchimp. It's wise to check each service's documentation for any limitations on data transfer or syncing capacity.
How secure is the data transfer between my Google Contacts and my Mailchimp account?
We prioritize security by using secure authentication methods such as OAuth for both your Google and Mailchimp accounts, ensuring that all data transfers are encrypted and handled securely during the synchronization process.
Can updates made directly in MailChimp be reflected back into my Google Contacts via this integration?
Currently, our integration supports one-way sync from Google Contacts to MailChimp only. Updates made directly within your MailChimp lists will not be reflected back into your Google Contacts at this time.
Practical ways you can use Google Contacts and Mailchimp

Zapier eliminates the need for manual entry by syncing new Mailchimp subscribers to Google Contacts. Whenever someone subscribes to your email list on Mailchimp, Zapier will automatically create a corresponding contact in Google Contacts. This saves time and ensures that your records are always consistent across tools, enhancing communication efficiency.
