I am trying to trigger a Zap in Zapier to update (or add) existing (or new) contacts in Mailchimp.
It all looks pretty easy and I've been able to get the wiring partially correct - however, when I tell Zapier that the contacts {Is Company=false} - I am unable to Map the "company name" field as it is not available in the field mapping wizard. I presume I have to set the Trigger to {Is Company=false} because I want the people within a company in my marketing list and am not so interested in the generic company email.
I can map the {organisation ID} which is a number. I can probably work out how to do a dynamic look up table in Google Sheets but that's not going to help with any new contacts. Plus, that's a hell of a workaround for this workaround.
I get the same result triggering the "integrations" tool in the Sell Smart List. It adds the contacts to Mailchimp but does not map {company name} (Sell) into {ORGNAME} (Mailchimp).
Please help me map an individual's organisation name to their record in Mailchimp.
