How can I test an invocable action if it is not working?

Like all flows, it is important to test. Salesforce documentation and Trailhead include a great deal of content about building and testing your flows. While we don't support building flows, as they are a standard Salesforce feature, we offer the following notes:

  • We may record issues with data validation or conflicts in the System Messages, on the Mailchimp Settings tab>Maintenance screen.
  • Flow debugging is good for ensuring your flow logic reached our action and the right Input values are pass to the action (list ID, email, etc).
  • Callouts, like our actions, will not actually callout to Mailchimp during Salesforce flow debugging. Instead, consider running a live test with an internal test record.
  • Alternate test for subscription management action: manually add the member to an audience via the “Manage Lists” button on the Membership component (on the contact/lead page).
    • This method provides a real-time response from Mailchimp, which will help identify if there is an issue.
    • This method provides more feedback than the invocable action would, as that runs in bulk.
