How to Send MailPoet Data to DocuSign
DocuSign is a document signing platform. MailPoet manages a subscriber joins a list or a newsletter form is submitted, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to DocuSign.
Why not just use Zapier?
For connecting MailPoet to document signing, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with MailPoet installed and configured.
- A DocuSign account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
