How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to Microsoft Dataverse
Microsoft Dataverse is a database platform. Here is how to pipe Easy Digital Downloads order data straight into Microsoft Dataverse using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing order data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to database. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
- A Microsoft Dataverse account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Microsoft Dataverse to AFI
Microsoft Dataverse uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Microsoft Dataverse, 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 Easy Digital Downloads to Microsoft Dataverse.
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 Microsoft Dataverse as the destination
Choose Microsoft Dataverse from the platform dropdown and pick Add Row. This creates a row in a Dataverse table.
4. Map fields
Match each Microsoft Dataverse 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 Microsoft Dataverse 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 standard table fields to Microsoft Dataverse with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping for all columns. No per-order fees on any plan.
