Connect Formsite and Mailchimp

Formsite is often where surveys, registrations and applications live, and Mailchimp is where those people hear from you next. FlowMattic moves each new result from Formsite into your audience and uses the answers to decide tags and notes, all from a workflow on your own WordPress site.

2. ActionAdd New Member

When Formsite fires New Form Result, FlowMattic runs Add New Member in Mailchimp with the data from that event.

You build this in the FlowMattic workflow builder on your own site. See the setup steps

Formsite and Mailchimp workflows you can build

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.

Add every Formsite respondent to a Mailchimp audience

Registration and sign-up results join the audience as they arrive, so your welcome or reminder emails reach people the same day they fill in the form.

Tag satisfaction survey replies as promoters or detractors

A Router reads the 0 to 10 score from a feedback survey and adds a matching tag, so you can ask happy customers for a review and reach out to unhappy ones separately.

Move a person from waitlist to registered

When the confirmation form for a course or event comes in, the workflow adds the registered tag and takes off the waitlist tag, so reminders go to the right group.

Summarise long application answers into a member note

Applications with several open questions are hard to scan. An AI Agent step writes a short summary and stores it on the member, ready for whoever reviews the list.

Turn a location answer into a branch tag

Businesses with several branches ask which one is nearest. A Lookup Table turns that answer into the branch tag your local newsletters already use.

Set up: respondents into Mailchimp

You will end with a workflow that adds each new Formsite result to your Mailchimp audience.

  1. Connect both accounts

    Under Connects in FlowMattic, add your Formsite account and your Mailchimp account.

  2. Choose New Form Result

    Start the workflow with the Formsite New Form Result trigger, pick the form and submit a test result so FlowMattic has real answers to map.

  3. Map Add New Member

    Add a Mailchimp step with Add New Member, choose the audience and map the email item and name items from the result.

  4. Check and turn on

    Run the step test, look for the new member in Mailchimp and switch the workflow on.

Triggers and actions in this pair

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.

Good to know

  • Every workflow on this page starts from a Formsite result, so results flow into Mailchimp and not the other way.
  • The answer items depend on how you built the form. Submit a fresh test result after you change the form so new items appear in the mapping.
  • Tag and note steps need the person to exist in the audience. Run Add New Member first when the respondent may not be on your list yet.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic

Formsite and Mailchimp connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.

Answers decide the follow-up

Router, Lookup Table and AI Agent steps read each survey answer and choose a tag or note, rather than adding everyone to the list the same way.

Large surveys cost the same

FlowMattic has no per-task pricing, so a survey with thousands of replies runs on the plan you already have.

Runs from your WordPress site

The workflow runs on your server, so respondents' answers pass from Formsite to Mailchimp through your own site.

Common questions

How does the Formsite Mailchimp integration work?

FlowMattic watches a Formsite form for new results. Each result starts a workflow that adds the person to your Mailchimp audience and, if you like, tags them or saves a note based on their answers.

Can I tag people based on a survey score?

Yes. Put a Router after the trigger with one path per score range, and add a Mailchimp Add Member Tag step on each path with the tag that range should get.

Can I unsubscribe people from Mailchimp with a Formsite form?

Yes. A removal form can feed the Mailchimp Delete List Member action, which takes the address out of the audience you select.

Do respondents have to give an email address?

Mailchimp needs an email address to add a member, so make the email item required on any form you connect to Add New Member.
