Quick summary
This tutorial shows how to automate Mailchimp list segmentation by connecting it to Typeform survey submissions using a Zapier Zap. When a new Typeform entry is detected, Zapier automatically adds or updates the subscriber in the correct Mailchimp audience segment — no manual sorting required.
Steps
- Log in to Zapier, click Create, and select Zaps to begin the automation process.
- Click Trigger to set up the starting event for your Zap.
- Search for and select Typeform as the trigger app.
- Choose New Entry as the trigger event to detect new survey submissions, then connect your Typeform account.
- Select the specific Typeform survey you want to use for segmentation.
- Run a test to confirm Zapier detects new survey entries correctly.
- Add Mailchimp as the Action App in your Zap.
- Choose Add/Update Subscriber as the action event, then connect your Mailchimp account.
- Select the target Mailchimp audience and fill in all required subscriber fields.
- Run a test to ensure Typeform responses trigger the correct segmentation in Mailchimp.
- Click Publish to activate your Zap and go live.
