How to Send ARForms Data to Elasticemail
Elasticemail is a platform platform. Here is how to pipe ARForms submission straight into Elasticemail using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.
The direct approach
AFI delivers submission data straight from WordPress to Elasticemail. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with ARForms installed and configured.
- A Elasticemail account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Elasticemail to AFI
Elasticemail uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Elasticemail, 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 ARForms to Elasticemail.
2. Pick your trigger
Select ARForms as the form provider. AFI fires when a form is submitted, giving you access to submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form fields.
3. Select Elasticemail as the destination
Choose Elasticemail from the platform dropdown and pick Add Record. This creates a record in Elasticemail.
4. Map fields
Match each Elasticemail field on the left to the corresponding ARForms field on the right. Common mappings include submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form 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 ARForms. Check Elasticemail 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 name and email to Elasticemail with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
