Create a new Konnector

Workflows in Konnectify are called Konnectors. You can build one easily.

Let’s take an example to put this together. Say you want to “Send emails in Gmail when a new Mailchimp Campaign is created”. Here the “New Campaign created” is the Trigger (which kicks off your workflow) in Mailchimp and “Create Email” is the Action in Gmail.

Step 1: Create a new Mailchimp trigger
  1. On the top right, click on New > New Konnector.
  1. Configure your trigger. Select Mailchimp as the Trigger app. (Please ensure your Mailchimp connection is validated and live) 
  1. Choose the app connection name that you had set up previously. For example, “Mailchimp connection”
  1. Select the trigger event as "New Campaign created", and click on “Continue”. You will be taken to the data mapping pop-up. 
  1. Konnectify will show you the Data output with existing data or sample data. If you have no data in the Mailchimp account, then please add it to validate the same. 
  1. Once mapped data is available, click on "Continue".
Step 2: Create a new Action
  1. On your Konnector canvas, click on the "Action" section. 
  1. Configure your action. Select Gmail as the Action app. (Please ensure your Gmail connection is validated and live) 
  1. Choose the app connection name that you had set up previously. For example, “Gmail connection”

    

  1. Select the action event as "Create Email", and click on “Continue”. You will be taken to the data mapping pop-up. 

     5. You can see the mapped data from your Mailchimp records. Check whether the right details have been added in the relevant fields, change it by clicking in the field.

     6.  Once you are certain, click on “Save Mapping”. Now your Action is ready.

‍

Step 3: Save your Konnector
  1. Once you have set up your Konnector, give it a name. For example: “Send emails when a new Mailchimp campaign is created”. 
  1. Click on the "Save" button in the top right corner, to save your entire Konnector. 
  1. Now you will be taken to the “All Konnectors” page. Here you can see all the Konnectors you have put together. To activate your Konnector, turn on the Status toggle. 
  1. You will get a success notification saying “Konnector Activated” 

Connect your Mailchimp account to 100+ applications such as Shopify, Salesforce, Gmail, etc, and build automation.
