MailChimp

Backend class

For Django, add this class path to AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS. For other integrations, use the same class path in the framework-specific backend setting.

Backend name	Class path
mailchimp	social_core.backends.mailchimp.MailChimpOAuth2

MailChimp uses OAuth v2 for Authentication, check the official docs.

• Create an app by filling out the form here: Add App

• Fill Client ID and Client Secret values in the settings:

  SOCIAL_AUTH_MAILCHIMP_KEY = '<App UID>'
  SOCIAL_AUTH_MAILCHIMP_SECRET = '<App secret>'
  

• Add the backend to the AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS setting:

  AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
      ...
      'social_core.backends.mailchimp.MailChimpOAuth2',
      ...
  )
  

• Then you can start using {% url social_core:begin 'mailchimp' %} in your templates
