Is there someone here who knows how to use MailChimp for Servoy?
Thankyou

Welcome to the forum, I see this is your first post.
What is it you are actually asking since to my knowledge there is no such product 'MailChimp for Servoy'.
Are you asking if someone created MailChimp functionality with Servoy? Or are you asking how to to use the mail plugin to send out mailings?

Most APIs aren't fully RESTful, including the MailChimp API. But we follow most of the practices and common definitions of the style.

I have Servoy talking to MailChimp through a web service I created myself. I did this because at the time the http plugin in Servoy did not have the functionality needed to talk to MailChimp.
Since I know Ruby-on-Rails, I created a small local rails site on the Servoy Server that talk to MailChimp using the Gibbon Ruby-gem. My Servoy app uses the http plugin to talk to this web service which talks to MailChimp and fetches or updates subscriber data. To the Servoy users, it looks like Servoy is talking directly.
MailChimp says:
- Code: Select all

You should be able to access this using improved http plugin in Servoy. Most the work will be dealing with the JSON.
Hope this helps,

Whist not specifically MailChimp, you may like to also consider Amazon SES which works very well from the mail plugin. Amazon provide a free tier of 62000 messages outbound per month and 1000 in before any charges apply. Mail chimp used them themselves before they developed Mandril and from personal experience I can say that the we have not had any problems with Junk filters eating mails. We are sending 40-50,000 mails a month on this service without issue and we also use it for sending single one off mails. I would however stress that this does not have the user friendly metrics associated with MailChimp, its just a gateway
This is an outdated but none the less interesting article that may be worth reading
