How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to Notion

Notion is a productivity and database platform. Easy Digital Downloads handles digital product sales beautifully, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to Notion.

Why connect directly?

Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-order fees, no external dependencies.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
• A Notion account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Notion to AFI

1. Go to your Notion workspace and create an integration at notion.so/my-integrations.
2. Copy the Internal Integration Secret.
3. Share your target database with the integration.
4. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Notion and paste the token.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Easy Digital Downloads to Notion.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Easy Digital Downloads as the form provider. AFI fires when a purchase is completed, giving you access to customer details, product information, payment data, and download links.

3. Select Notion as the destination

Choose Notion from the platform dropdown and pick Add Database Item. This creates a new item in a Notion database.

4. Map fields

Match each Notion field on the left to the corresponding Easy Digital Downloads field on the right. Common mappings include customer name, email, product details, and order total. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain purchases? Set up a conditional rule. For example, only sync completed payments or specific products.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Place a test purchase in your Easy Digital Downloads store. Check Notion to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.

Free vs Pro

The free version maps title, and standard properties to Notion with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom property mapping for all Notion field types. No per-order fees on any plan.
