Updating Mailchimp When UIF is Processed [#2176951]

This is an amazing module and I am totally dropping Constant Contact because of the smart segmentation of this module!

I do have one thing I am trying to figure out. I am updating a user field on a weekly basis and am using UIF to do the import.

https://drupal.org/project/uif

When I make the UIF import I would like it to update in Mail Chimp as well. I have my list to update on cron, but it does not seem to work. Does the cron only work when I edit a user save it and then apply the cron? Not sure if it is possible to update my mailchimp fields in bulk when I do the UIF Import.

You have this listed as 2.x but I suspect you are using 3.x?

If so, from the admin/config/services/mailchimp/fields page you can do "update mailchimp mergevar values" for your fields. This calls a function that you could also call directly in your hook: function mailchimp_lists_update_member_merge_values($entity_type, $bundle_name, $field)
