How to Send LearnDash Enrollments to Gist

Gist is a CRM and live chat that helps you manage contacts and track interactions. Getting LearnDash enrollment data into Gist does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.

The direct approach

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

What you will need

• A WordPress site with LearnDash installed and at least one course.
• A Gist account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Gist to AFI

1. Log in to your Gist account.
2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Gist.
4. Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it LearnDash to Gist.

2. Pick your trigger

Select LearnDash as the form provider. AFI fires when a student enrolls in a course or completes a lesson, giving you access to student details, course information, and enrollment data.

3. Select Gist as the destination

Choose Gist from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates a contact in Gist.

4. Map fields

Match each Gist field on the left to the corresponding LearnDash field on the right. Common mappings include student name, email, course title, and enrollment date. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain enrollments? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Complete a test enrollment in LearnDash. Check Gist 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 email, name, and phone to Gist with unlimited enrollments. Pro adds custom field mapping and tags. No per-enrollment fees on any plan.

Frequently asked questions

Which LearnDash events trigger the integration?

AFI fires when a student enrolls in a course or completes a lesson. This covers new enrollments, course completions, and student registrations.

Will adding this slow down my site?

No. AFI sends data to the destination after the enrollment event completes. Your students are not affected.

Can I send enrollments to multiple platforms?

Yes. Create a separate integration for each destination, and every enrollment flows to all of them simultaneously.
