Common triggers include new subscriber signup, subscriber status changes, or campaign email opens in Mailchimp. These can trigger actions like adding/updating records in your MySQL database.

No coding is needed when using an automation platform for setup. This process typically involves selecting triggers from Mailchimp and defining actions for corresponding MySQL database operations.
How do you handle data synchronization issues between Mailchimp and MySQL?
We ensure accurate data transfer by implementing error-handling functions and alerts. If a trigger fails to execute, notifications can prompt immediate review of the syncing process integrity.

The frequency of sync depends on how you've configured your integration settings. Typically, automations can be set to run immediately after a trigger event or at scheduled intervals.
