How to Send The Events Calendar Data to Zoho Campaigns
Zoho Campaigns is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Getting The Events Calendar event into Zoho Campaigns does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to email marketing. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with The Events Calendar installed and configured.
- A Zoho Campaigns account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Zoho Campaigns to AFI
Zoho Campaigns uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Zoho Campaigns, 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 The Events Calendar to Zoho Campaigns.
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 Zoho Campaigns as the destination
Choose Zoho Campaigns from the platform dropdown and pick Add Subscriber. This adds a subscriber to a Zoho Campaigns list.
4. Map fields
Match each Zoho Campaigns 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 Zoho Campaigns 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 and name to Zoho Campaigns with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
