How to Send Charitable Data to Adobe Connect
Adobe Connect is a webinar platform for hosting online events and sessions. Getting Charitable donation into Adobe Connect does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.
The direct approach
AFI delivers donation data straight from WordPress to Adobe Connect. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Charitable installed and configured.
- A Adobe Connect account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Adobe Connect to AFI
Adobe Connect uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Adobe Connect, 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 Charitable to Adobe Connect.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Charitable as the form provider. AFI fires when a donation is made through a fundraising campaign, giving you access to donor name, email, donation amount, campaign ID, and gateway.
3. Select Adobe Connect as the destination
Choose Adobe Connect from the platform dropdown and pick Register for Meeting. This registers a contact for an Adobe Connect meeting.
4. Map fields
Match each Adobe Connect field on the left to the corresponding Charitable field on the right. Common mappings include donor name, email, donation amount, campaign ID, and gateway. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Charitable. Check Adobe Connect 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 email, first name, and last name to Adobe Connect with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
