Conditional logic example

Goal: when a student earns the Top Performer achievement, also send them a personalized congratulations email and add them to a “Top performers” segment.

Create the email integration on the Achievement Earned event. Open the Conditional Logic panel, add a condition with the achievement field, Equal To, value Top Performer.

Troubleshooting

Free vs. paid course events

LifterLMS treats free and paid enrollments the same way for the enrollment event. To distinguish, check the access plan ID or a membership-tier custom field on the student.

Event doesn’t fire on bulk enrollment

If you bulk-enroll students via WP-CLI or admin tools, AFI may not see those enrollments because they don’t fire the standard front-end action. Manually fire the integration via AFI → Replay for those records.
