Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.There's some functionality I'd like to have that isn't provided by the available Mailchimp modules: I have existing organizational content that I need to have automatically compiled and delivered weekly to team members.
What is the recommended approach for doing this? Should I write a module that depends on...
- Functions available in the Mailchimp and Campaign modules
- Only the Mailchimp PHP libraries
- Only the Mailchimp API
I have a working prototype script using functions like mailchimp_get_lists(), mailchimp_get_api_object(), and class methods like updateCampaign() and setCampaignContent() that I could simply place in a hook_cron. Are these expected to remain relatively stable enough for custom sub-module development, or should I work as directly with the Mailchimp API as possible?

samuel.mortenson@rblackmore I would say that relying on
mailchimp_get_api_object()and the object methods returned by that is completely reasonable, the Drupal 7 APIs won't change and if you rely directly on https://github.com/thinkshout/mailchimp-api-php in any project you should expect the API to stay the same within a major version. Please re-open the issue if you have any other questions!
