Workflow name
Sync Squarespace newsletter signups to Mailchimp via Google Sheets

This workflow captures Squarespace newsletter signups in a Google Sheet and automatically creates new Mailchimp contacts in the selected audience.

It overcomes the limitation in Squarespace’s native Mailchimp integration, which only supports new, empty audiences.

You can trigger the workflow manually or schedule it for continuous synchronization.


Step-by-step tutorial

  • First, you need to connect Squarespace newsletter block submission to Google Drive
  • In Mailchimp node, choose your targeted audience in List Name or ID

Connect a Squarespace Form to Google Drive

To connect a form to Google Drive:

  1. In the form's storage options, click Connect on Google Drive.
  2. Log into your Google account.
  3. Click Allow to permit Squarespace to connect to Google Drive.
  4. Enter a Spreadsheet Name. This creates a new spreadsheet for your form submissions.

Columns in my sheet:

  • Submitted On

This structure is inspired by Squarespace’s newsletter block connection, but you can modify it based on your preferred data format.
