How to add a new user mail chimp
To add a new user to Mailchimp, follow these steps:
Method 1: Add a new user through the Mailchimp dashboard
- Log in to your Mailchimp account and navigate to the Audience tab.
- Click on the Manage Audience button.
- Click on the Add a new user button.
- Enter the new user's email address and name.
- Choose the user's role from the dropdown menu:
- Manager: Can manage all aspects of the account, including adding and removing users.
- Editor: Can edit campaigns, segments, and audience data, but cannot manage users or billing.
- Viewer: Can view reports and analytics, but cannot edit or manage the account.
- Click the Add User button.
Method 2: Add a new user through the Mailchimp API
If you have a large number of users to add, you can use the Mailchimp API to automate the process. You'll need to:
- Create an API key in your Mailchimp account settings.
- Use the API key to send a POST request to the
/users
endpoint with the following parameters:email
: The new user's email address.name
: The new user's name.role
: The new user's role (e.g. "Manager", "Editor", or "Viewer").
- You can use a programming language like Python or JavaScript to send the API request.
Here's an example Python code snippet using the requests
library:
import requests
api_key = "your_api_key_here"
email = "[email protected]"
name = "New User"
role = "Editor"
url = f"https://us12.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/users"
headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}"}
data = {"email": email, "name": name, "role": role}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)
if response.status_code == 200:
print("User added successfully!")
else:
print("Error adding user:", response.text)
Additional tips
- Make sure the new user's email address is not already associated with an existing Mailchimp account.
- If you're adding a new user with a role that requires approval (e.g. Manager), the user will receive an email notification to confirm their account.
- You can also add users through the Mailchimp mobile app or by importing a CSV file containing the user data.
