How do I integrate MailChimp API with my application?

Apideck provides a unified Unified API that makes MailChimp integration simple. Sign up for free, enable MailChimp in your dashboard, and use our Vault component to let your users connect their MailChimp accounts. We handle OAuth authentication, token refresh, and data normalization automatically.

How does MailChimp authentication work with Apideck?

Apideck's Vault handles MailChimp authentication completely. Your users connect their MailChimp accounts through our secure, white-label UI. We manage OAuth tokens, automatic refresh, and credential storage, so you never have to implement MailChimp's auth flow yourself.

How do I keep my app in sync with MailChimp?

While MailChimp has limited native webhook support, Apideck provides polling-based sync and virtual webhooks to keep your data current. Configure your sync frequency in the dashboard, and we'll handle fetching updates from MailChimp.

Why use Apideck instead of MailChimp's direct API?

Using Apideck's unified API instead of MailChimp's direct API saves significant development time. You get normalized data models, automatic auth handling, and the same integration code works with 200+ other apps. When MailChimp updates their API, we handle the changes so your integration keeps working.
