MailChimp Integration in Heap CRM
For those of you who use MailChimp you can now integrate incoming information into Heap CRM using WebHooks. To get your URL, go to your help tab and select integration:

For the particular list you want to integrate select “Settings:”

Then select “WebHooks:”

Paste your URL from Heap into this spot:

Now when someone signs up for this list that doesn’t exist in Heap, they will be added. If they update their profile your entry in Heap will be updated (and they will be added to categories based on interest groups they select in MailChimp). If they unsubscribe they will be removed from categories based on their interest groups.

Perfect. However is it possible to integrate heap with other email marketing systems? I and many of my friends use http://www.campaignmonitor.com

Campaign Monitor doesn’t support web hooks. Integrating using there API would be very inefficient given it isn’t event driven.
Integration with Newsberry is much more likely given they have webhooks for their other product, so I imagine it would come to Newsberry at some point.

I have setup the webhook in mailchimp however when someone signs up on my website I see the contact info in mailchimp but not in heap. Can someone offer some thoughts on trouble shooting this?

Hi Ernest -
You have to copy the url from Heap’s help section exactly, otherwise it won’t show up in Heap. Also, the web hook in Mail Chimp is setup on a list by list basis.

How do you pass other information beyond first name/last name/email? E.g., if the custom sign up list has a field for phone number.

Hi Pranav -
Using MailChimps “Tags” for each field, you need to name the field to match Heap’s fields. So if you want data to land in the Phone field, tag it “PHONE” in MailChimp.
