How to Send Ultimate Member Data to Google Calendar
Google Calendar is a calendar platform. If you want Ultimate Member registration synced to Google Calendar, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.
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-registration fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Ultimate Member installed and configured.
- A Google Calendar account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Google Calendar to AFI
Google Calendar uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Google Calendar, 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 Ultimate Member to Google Calendar.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Ultimate Member as the form provider. AFI fires when a user registers or updates their profile, giving you access to user name, email, username, account type, and custom profile fields.
3. Select Google Calendar as the destination
Choose Google Calendar from the platform dropdown and pick Create Event. This creates an event in Google Calendar.
4. Map fields
Match each Google Calendar field on the left to the corresponding Ultimate Member field on the right. Common mappings include user name, email, username, account type, and custom profile fields. 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 Ultimate Member. Check Google Calendar 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, date, and description to Google Calendar with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
