1

Create your playbook and set the Calendly trigger as "Event scheduled"

After creating your playbook, you can proceed to add your trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and responds to your playbook.

To set up this playbook, click "Add trigger" and then select "Event scheduled" under Calendly. Then, select the necessary details. This will allow your playbook to automatically detect the newly scheduled event in Calendly and initiate necessary actions.

If this is your first time using a Calendly integration in Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.

2

Add the "Add subscriber to list" in Mailchimp automation

Integrate the Mailchimp automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt addition of a new Mailchimp subscriber when a new event has been scheduled in Calendly.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Add subscriber to list" automation for Mailchimp and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Mailchimp account isn't already connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Mailchimp account.

3

Activate your Relay.app playbook

Activating your playbook is the final step to automate the addition of a new Mailchimp Subscriber. Once turned on, it will respond to each newly scheduled event in Calendly by adding a new subscriber in Mailchimp without manual intervention.

To enable your playbook, click the toggle button located in the header. It is advisable to perform a test run of your playbook beforehand to ensure all steps work seamlessly together and reminders are being sent correctly.
