FAQs
Q. Can I change the mailing list from the settings?
A. Yes. You can create another list on MailChimp and sync it with RepairDesk, or sync an existing one.
Follow these steps to make the necessary changes:
1. Go to the MailChimp Integration Settings.
2. Under the option "Select a List", choose any mailing list on your MailChimp account from the drop-down menu.
3. Finally, click on Save Changes.
4. Now the selected mailing list in MailChimp will be synced with RepairDesk and customers will be added to this list.
Q. Are customers unsubscribed automatically from RepairDesk if they unsubscribe themselves from emails?
A. Yes. Once a customer opts-out or unsubscribes from your email list, the status for that specific customer also automatically changes to Unsubscribed in RepairDesk.
Q. How can I use multiple mailing lists with RepairDesk?
A. Once you enable the API, then enter a user name and your Mailchimp API key and press Save, you will have the option of selecting a mailing list. By default, this option will be set to Single Mailing List. To use multiple mailing lists, select the Multiple Mailing List option, then choose the mailing lists you'd like to use. When you're done, click on Save Changes.
Based on the selected list and their selected tags, your customers will be synced to MailChimp.
For example, if the user selects List A and selects the tags "iphone7" and "iPhone 5", then customers that have those tags will be synced only.
