I have a mailchimp audience and I only want to import one particular segment of this audience (only subscribed emails from one website source). I’ve tried to use the integration for this and, because the segment is not a audience with audience ID, I don’t see how I can import only the one mailchimp segment. I’ve downloaded a CSV of the segment and imported but it does not maintain the sign-up date/time data, which I would like to have, as opposed to 1100 listings all listed as joined on today. Can someone please let me know the most optimal way on importing this segment while maintaining good data. I tried splitting the Time/Date column in google sheets but it still didn’t show proper opt-in date in Klaviyo listing. Thanks!
Mailchimp not importing signup date data

So I ended up integrating Shopify and importing via CSV the subscribed audience, that way I could select “all imports subscribed” and they would show up that way. The good news is that Shopify integration was able to sync and recognized that CSV import and link to those who had purchased, which is ultimately what I wanted in the first place!
My advice to those reading this is forget about the mailchimp integration and export manual only subscribed users and then you can keep them all safely subscribed. Thanks for you help!
