Mailchimp Extended | add / update subscriber

Hi everyone, I hope you can help me. I’m going mad here! :sweat_smile:

Everything was working just fine, I changed nothing and suddenly I get loads of error messages from users. Did something in the plugin change?

The Goal:

  1. Subscribe new members with first name + last name + email address + tag “waitlist”
  2. Update existing members with missing fields (first name, last name) and add tag “waitlist”

Situation:

  • People can sign up my mailchimp list via the website (travelsisters.co) when requesting a freebie. They are tagged with “freebie”.

  • They can also “join the waitlist” for our app on “join.travelsisters.co” and wil then get tagged with “waitlist”.

Problem:
Now apparently when they are already part of the mailing list with “freebie” and they then sign up for the waitlist, the plugin says “already” subscribed"
That’s why I changed over to “subscribe or update” instead of just the subscribe version. But that simply doesn’t work.

I set it up like this:

And now I receive these:

Also, as far as I understand this only says “do XYZ if member is new” but Ican’t see what it does “if member is not new” How do I tell it?

The Goal:

  1. Subscribe new members with first name + last name + email address + tag “waitlist”
  2. Update existing members with missing fields (first name, last name) and add tag “waitlist”

Can you please help? TIA :pray:t2: (@romanmg Gabi maybe? :slight_smile: :slight_smile: )

Judging from the Mailchimp error it looks like maybe a symbol is being passed into the JSON that shouldn’t be.

Just a hunch but is it the final comma in the “LNAME” line? In my experience the final statement in JSON doesn’t require a comma.

Final line should end:
(waitlists)'s value"
No comma

thank you, Matt.

I updated it and now the error looks like this:

Shorter, but still not working :sweat_smile:

It’s still saying that “PUT” should be used but that is nothing I can change. That is the plugin itself that should have the “PUT” command built in.

Or am I missing something else?

Still hoping that @romanmg can help :pray:t4:

Sorry I don’t have any specific experience with this plugin, just experience with using the Bubble API Connector.

Have you considered using the API Connector instead of a plugin, that way you can create a PUT command.

I have, but I have no idea how to set it up. I tried going through all the plugin help and what not but I never seem to be setting it up correctly :sweat_smile: Which tbh is really nagging me because I’ve figured out everything else (I’m by no way a developer at all. I do marketing and the business side of things)
