Overview

AFI sends transactional emails through Emailit‘s SMTP / API service. Use it to deliver confirmation emails, receipts, or follow-up messages directly from a form submission, with full control over from/to/subject/body via field mapping.

Supported actions

  • Send Email — fire a one-off transactional email with mapped fields for to, from, subject, html body, and reply-to.

Authentication

  1. Log in to Emailit.
  2. Open Settings > API Keys and generate a key.
  3. In AFI go to Settings > Emailit and paste the key.

How to create the integration

  1. In WordPress admin, go to AFI > New Integration.
  2. Pick your Sender (Contact Form 7, WPForms, WooCommerce, etc.) and the form / event to listen on.
  3. Pick Emailit as the Receiver, then pick the Task you want to run.
  4. Map sender fields onto Emailit’s fields. To, From, Subject, and HTML body are required.
  5. Optional: add Conditional Logic so the action only fires on matching submissions.
  6. Save and run a test submission. Check AFI > Log if anything looks off.

Notes & caveats

  • From-address verification. The sending domain must be verified in your Emailit account; otherwise the API rejects the send.
  • Transactional only. This integration is for one-off sends, not bulk newsletters — use a list-based ESP for that.
  • HTML body can include placeholders that reference smart tags like {{first_name}} for personalisation.
