How to Send LearnDash Enrollments to Dynamics 365 Marketing
Dynamics 365 Marketing is a marketing automation platform. If you want LearnDash data in Dynamics 365 Marketing, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.
Why connect directly?
Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-enrollment fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with LearnDash installed and at least one course.
- A Dynamics 365 Marketing account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
