Mailchimp Integration with Cleanly Booking 📧

This document outlines how to integrate Mailchimp with the Cleanly Booking product by ThemeDev. Mailchimp is a popular email marketing platform used for creating, sending, and analyzing email campaigns. Integrating it with Cleanly streamlines your workflows by allowing you to receive instant updates on booking confirmations, including customer names, email, total amount, and payment status.

Step-by-Step Guide to Configure Mailchimp Integration:

To set up the integration, you’ll need to obtain a Mailchimp API Key and a Mailchimp Audience ID (List ID).

   • If you don’t have one, sign up for a Mailchimp account.
   • Choose a suitable Mailchimp plan.
   • Go to Mailchimp’s website to start.
2. Generate a Mailchimp API Key:
   • Log in to your Mailchimp account.
   • Click on your profile icon/name in the top-right corner.
   • Navigate to “Account & Billing”.
   • From the menu, go to “Extras” then select “API Keys”.
   • Click the “Create A Key” button.
   • Copy the generated API key. Keep it secure.
3. Find Your Mailchimp Audience ID (List ID):
   • In your Mailchimp dashboard, go to “Audience” (or “Lists” in older versions).
   • Click on “All contacts”.
   • Select “Settings” (usually a dropdown or tab within the Audience section).
   • Click on “Audience name and defaults”.
   • You will find the Audience ID listed here. Copy this ID.

Part 2: Configuring Cleanly Booking Settings
