Prep: Connect Attio to Zapier

Follow our short guide on connecting Attio and Zapier, making sure you've set up your API key with both read and write permissions.

1. Create your Mailchimp trigger

From your Zapier dashboard, click Create Zap in the top left.

Search for Mailchimp in the App Event window, and from the Trigger Event dropdown we’re going to pick New Subscriber in Mailchimp. Your trigger tells Zapier what should initiate your Zap.

If your Mailchimp list has segments or tags you’d like to use for this automation, choose the New Subscriber in Segment or Tag trigger.

2. Create a person in Attio

Next, create a new action step in Zapier and pick Attio from the App Event dropdown. For Action Event, choose Find or Create a Person. Select your Attio account, and set up your action like this:

A Mailchimp trigger is being configured in Zapier, with name and email address values being pulled from step 1 of the Zap
First create a new person in your Attio workspace before an entry is created

3. Create an entry for your record

Add another action step with the + icon and pick Attio from the dropdown. Choose Find or Create Entry from the Action Event dropdown, and select your Attio account when prompted.

For the Record ID field, you’ll need to map data from the Find or Create a Person step in your Zap. Choose Find or Create Person from the Record ID dropdown, followed by Show all options. Scroll down to find ID. Your action should look like this:

A Zap is being configured to create a new entry in an Attio list called Sales
Create a new entry in your Attio list using values from previous steps

That’s it! Now every time someone subscribes to your list in Mailchimp, Zapier will create a new person in your Attio workspace and send an entry to your chosen list.
