In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step

Triggers can be scheduled, called by a ActiveCampaign, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, ActiveCampaign or Mailchimp will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find ActiveCampaign or Mailchimp, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring ActiveCampaign, Mailchimp, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy."

Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the ActiveCampaign and Mailchimp integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ActiveCampaign and Mailchimp (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
