How It Works
The n8n automation triggers periodically using a cron scheduler, retrieving new or updated contact records from Airtable. It then processes each contact's information, mapping relevant fields to Mailchimp's contact schema. The workflow checks for duplicate entries, validates data integrity, and creates or updates contacts in Mailchimp automatically. Error handling mechanisms ensure that any synchronization issues are logged and can be reviewed, providing a robust and reliable data transfer process.
