How to Send Dokan Data to Mailgun

Mailgun is a email delivery platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. If you want Dokan vendor synced to Mailgun, 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-vendor fees, no external dependencies.

What you will need

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

Connect Mailgun to AFI

1. Log in to your Mailgun account.
2. Go to Settings → API Keys and copy your Private API Key.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Mailgun.
4. Enter your domain and API Key, then click Save.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Dokan to Mailgun.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Dokan as the form provider. AFI fires when a vendor registers or a product is submitted, giving you access to vendor name, email, store name, product title, and store category.

3. Select Mailgun as the destination

Choose Mailgun from the platform dropdown and pick Add Mailing List Member. This adds a member to a Mailgun mailing list.

4. Map fields

Match each Mailgun field on the left to the corresponding Dokan field on the right. Common mappings include vendor name, email, store name, product title, and store category. 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 Dokan. Check Mailgun 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 Mailgun with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
