Gamalogic Email Validation Integration with Mailchimp
Overview
This documentation provides a complete technical guide for integrating Gamalogic Email Validation with Mailchimp. Gamalogic and Mailchimp integration enables marketers, developers, and automation teams to maintain high quality email audiances and improve campaign performance by seamlessly validating contacts stored in Mailchimp. Through secure OAuth2, Gamalogic import your Mailchimp audiences, identifies invalid or risky email addresses, and updates your audiances with actionable validation results.
Gamalogic connects to Mailchimp using a secure OAuth2 authorization flow. During authentication, you are redirected to Mailchimp’s official login page, where you grant Gamalogic temporary access to your Mailchimp data. No passwords are stored, and access tokens follow Mailchimp’s secure expiration policies.
