# Publishing to MailChimp

When publishing your newsletter to MailChimp, FeedOtter's integration provides a flexible scheduling option for creating and sending the newsletter in your MailChimp instance.

Under Campaign **Settings** > **Integration** tab > **Configure Defaults**. Here, set up the option you'll be using.

Click **Save** > **Return to Edit**. Finish setting up your newsletter defaults and then you're ready to [create your first newsletter](/curated-newsletters/getting-started/create-your-first-curated-issue.md).

After creating your newsletter, click **Publish** to send to MailChimp.

Here, you'll be able to verify or change any preset options before scheduling the newsletter in MailChimp. Once you've confirmed your settings, schedule your newsletter and click **Publish**.

In the next popup, follow the link to your MailChimp account. This will take you directly to your newsletter in MailChimp.
