How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to Acuity Scheduling

Acuity Scheduling is a appointment scheduling platform. Every Easy Digital Downloads sale should flow into Acuity Scheduling automatically. This guide shows how to set that up in five minutes.

The direct approach

AFI delivers order data straight from WordPress to Acuity Scheduling. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
• A Acuity Scheduling account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Easy Digital Downloads to Acuity Scheduling.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Easy Digital Downloads as the form provider. AFI fires when a purchase is completed, giving you access to customer details, product information, payment data, and download links.

3. Select Acuity Scheduling as the destination

Choose Acuity Scheduling from the platform dropdown and pick Create Appointment. This creates an appointment in Acuity Scheduling.

4. Map fields

Match each Acuity Scheduling field on the left to the corresponding Easy Digital Downloads field on the right. Common mappings include customer name, email, product details, and order total. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain purchases? Set up a conditional rule. For example, only sync completed payments or specific products.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Place a test purchase in your Easy Digital Downloads store. Check Acuity Scheduling 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, email, phone, and date to Acuity Scheduling with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.
