Custom Forms Tutorial
How to set it up:
1. Log into your MailChimp Account
This Add-on is only useful for MailChimp users. If you don't have an account and want to use the service, you can create an account here: https://login.mailchimp.com/signup/
2. Find or generate your MailChimp API key
API (Application Programming Interface) keys help apps communicate with one another. If you give your API key to a website, you're giving them access to your account without giving them your password.
To find or create your MailChimp API key go to this page: https://us1.admin.mailchimp.com/account/api/?_ga=2.206308048.2105747800.1604449741-1796792125.1604449741
If you don't have an API key, click on the "Create a Key" button below the "Your API keys" submenu.

And just like that, your new key will be generated.
3. Copy your MailChimp API key
