Before you can use AWS Glue to transfer from Mailchimp, you must meet the following requirements:

## Minimum requirements

+ You have an Mailchimp account with email and password. For more information about creating an account, see [Creating a Mailchimp account](mailchimp-create-account.md). 
+  You must have AWS Account created with the service access to AWS Glue. 
+ Ensure you have created one of the following resources. These resources provide credentials that AWS Glue uses to securely access your data when making authenticated calls to your account:
  + A Developer App that supports OAuth 2.0 authentication. For more information about creating a Developer App, see [Creating a Mailchimp account](mailchimp-create-account.md). 

If you meet these requirements, you’re ready to connect AWS Glue to your Mailchimp account. For typical connections, you don't need do anything else in Mailchimp.
