How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to Total Expert
Total Expert is a CRM that helps you manage contacts and track interactions. Every Easy Digital Downloads sale should flow into Total Expert automatically. This guide shows how to set that up in five minutes.
The direct approach
AFI delivers order data straight from WordPress to Total Expert. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
- A Total Expert account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Total Expert to AFI
Total Expert uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Total Expert, click Authorize and grant access. This is a one-time step.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Easy Digital Downloads to Total Expert.
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 Total Expert as the destination
Choose Total Expert from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates a contact in Total Expert.
4. Map fields
Match each Total Expert 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 Total Expert 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 name, email, and phone to Total Expert with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.
