Mailchimp API docs API reference

Authentication

Get a Mailchimp API key at https://mailchimp.com/developer/

Keep this key private. You can pass the key in to each function via the key parameter, but it's better to store the key as an environment variable (MAILCHIMP_KEY).

Read only for now

We're sticking to read only (i.e., GET) methods for now.

Package API

The R6 classes ChmpCampaigns, ChmpList, and ChmpReports have methods on them that you can call for various API routes under each high level topic. Generally an id is required (e.g., campaign id, list id, report id), but there are some methods that don't require an id.

• chmp_ping - ping
• chmp_root - API root
• chmp_lists/chmp_lists_ - get all lists
• ChmpCampaigns - methods for campaigns
• ChmpList - methods for individual lists
• ChmpReports - methods for reports
