How does the Zoho integration work with MailChimp?

Topic: Integrations | Updated: 10/12/2012

MailChimp can quickly connect to your Zoho CRM account and import your list of contacts. Before connecting to Zoho and importing your list, you'll need to locate your Zoho username and password. For best results, we suggest using an admin account for the integration.

Connect to Zoho

  1. In your MailChimp account, navigate to Account > Integrations.
  2. Enter your Zoho username and password then click the Connect button.

After you connect to Zoho using your username and password, we'll fetch your Zoho AuthToken to authenticate the account. Once we fetch your AuthToken, we won't store or save your Zoho password.

Import your list from Zoho

  1. To import your contacts from Zoho, navigate to the Lists page, click the Gear drop down and select Import for the list you're working with.

  2. On the Import page, scroll down to Import From... and select Zoho under the From Another Service option.

  5. Click All Done to complete the import.

Notes

  • Subscriber information you've added in MailChimp won't be added to your Zoho account. This integration is a one way import into MailChimp. Additional 3rd party CRM integrations.
  • The fields that appear in the list mapping step are the only fields available to import from Zoho.
