Configure MailChimp Analytics360

We need to connect your Google Analytics account to your MailChimp account. MailChimp made that possible with their Analytics360 module. Note that this is not a Drupal module - it's a module on the MailChimp platform. Educate yourself on what Analytics360 is with this video. MailChimp also has a comprehensive tutorial about enabling Analytics360 in your MailChimp account in their tutorial on how to use Google Analytics with MailChimp.

Check the Reports

Make sure everything works like you want it to. Check if Google Analytics data is showing up in the MailChimp reports. You can find them in your MailChimp account at Reports -> [click a campaign title] -> Advanced Reports. An example of what that report looks like is shown below. I called the email campaign 'Test 1 for Dev1'. 

It can take a while before MailChimp can aggregate the ecommerce data from Google Analytics (24-48 hours).

Commerce MailChimp module not required
