Bug connecting to mailchimp apps

[guycoupez]

Hi,

When trying to connect porwe BI to mailchimp the popup tries to load an invalid url :

https://https//app.powerbi.com/providers/oauthRedirectReceiver?code=.....

Beacause of this, it is impossible to use the conenctor to Mailchimp

This cause of this issue should be same as the one mentiond in this thread. 

I've reported it internally to Power BI Team: CRI 36893443
I'll post here once I get any update about it.

Best Regards,

Hi,

I maybe you should look into other integrated options to avoid such issues. I suggest you look into Touchdown for D365 & PowerApps. Here's their website for more info if you like https://www.touchdown.co/dynamics-mailchimp-integration-en/

Hi @guycoupez I know this reply is very late. Since there’s no built-in connector for Mailchimp to PBI anymore, you'll have to look for another way. As a workaround, maybe you can use a 3rd party connector, it can save you a lot of time compared to other options. I've tried windsor.ai, supermetrics and funnel.io. I stayed with windsor because it is much cheaper so just to let you know other options. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the Mailchimp connector in the data sources list:

After that, you will have to first create a secret API key in your Mailchimp account and then using your credentials add your account to the platform.

Once you’ve done this, you can proceed and go to the “Preview and destination” step

There just select the fields you need. Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.
