Finding Your Server Prefix
Your server prefix identifies the Mailchimp datacenter for your account and is required for API requests.
1
Obtain from OAuth Metadata
After OAuth authorization completes:
- The server prefix is retrieved automatically from the OAuth metadata endpoint at
https://login.mailchimp.com/oauth2/metadata. - The metadata response includes the datacenter prefix (e.g., us1, us19).
2
Alternative Method
You can also find your server prefix:
- Look at your Mailchimp account URL when logged in (e.g.,
https://us19.admin.mailchimp.com). - The prefix is the subdomain before
.admin.mailchimp.com(e.g., “us19”).
