How to Send The Events Calendar Data to Kartra

Kartra is a all-in-one marketing platform. Getting The Events Calendar event into Kartra does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.

The direct approach

AFI delivers event data straight from WordPress to Kartra. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with The Events Calendar installed and configured.
• A Kartra account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Kartra to AFI

1. Log in to your Kartra account.
2. Go to My Profile → API and copy your API Key and Password.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Kartra.
4. Enter the API Key and Password, then click Save.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it The Events Calendar to Kartra.

2. Pick your trigger

Select The Events Calendar as the form provider. AFI fires when an event RSVP or ticket order is submitted, giving you access to attendee name, email, event title, event date, ticket type, and order total.

3. Select Kartra as the destination

Choose Kartra from the platform dropdown and pick Add Lead. This adds a lead to your Kartra account.

4. Map fields

Match each Kartra field on the left to the corresponding The Events Calendar field on the right. Common mappings include attendee name, email, event title, event date, ticket type, and order total. 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 The Events Calendar. Check Kartra 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 Kartra with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping and tag assignment. No per-record fees on any plan.
