#4515 - Mapping workaround - 1 field in Sugar and 2 fields in MailChimp
Hello,
is there any workaround to synchronize 1 filed from Sugar into 2 fields in MailChimp?
In Sugar I have a field "Emailings" that is in MailChimp divided for user-friendliness into "Updates" and "Research Topics".
Any idea on this?
Thank you, GA

Thanks for reaching out. Fields have a one-to-one relationship which means that only one field can sync to one field in the other platform. In the scenario you describe, it sounds like you are wanting to sync the types of emails that a subscriber would like to receive, is that correct? In these cases, it might make sense to create a Group field in Mailchimp, as found here: https://fanaticallabs.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360021150772-Field-Mapping-Using-Mailchimp-Groups and sync it with a multi-select field in Sugar for Updates and/or Research Topics.
Let me know if you have any other questions or you want more insight into this potential solution.
Best, Heidi
